Colby,

It is sad news for Team Woodfin and the Super 10 engine. Pulling the valve cover and a quick check showed the engine broke #3 intake valve.

We licked our wounds, loaded up and towed home to Kilgore.

I do not know the extent of the damage now. I will tear down and see what can be salvaged then formulate a new plan.

I like the Super 10 package and think it is a good match for me. Considering what could be broken and considering what the replacement parts will cost I may change engine combinations. Too soon to tell just now but if the 327 parts have major damage I may change to the 1970 Camaro 350/360 engine factored @ 330 with Edelbrock heads [#60477 head] Doing so would take 40 or so pounds off the front and the truck would like that.
