Just a pisser on the drive, we did learn some great things about these engines and well, its just a temporary setback, we still plan on being at Pomona....
We have a PLAN actually3 to have a running motor dialed in by 12 midnight on Monday, were going to tag team driving and hop the car out by Thur AM , may miss first pass with it but we should be good.
The whole plan (our main plan of the 3) is dependent on an assumption someone has something we need. Well see......
Lots of Phone work right now chasing people off the couch on a Sat from Mopar.....and 2 others we know have what we need.
Gives me tommorow to put it back together and Mon early to finish the fuel curve.
1 other lost his 7th or so pass....yes.....We had already run it to 8k with no issues, all was good, even oil pressure was over 80 when it went, water temp nice steady 182 , even the sensors and egt was all good and bam. Instant failure.
Ive got most apart and we see exactly what happened and why, in the end its my fault because I truseted someone elses work, my fault.
Well be there (even with no motor, Ive also got a contingency on 360 and others things in the works....)
Cheers
Chris
