The photos speak for themselves, yes the engine had to come out. Jim D'Amore from JDM had the parts, piston, rings and the engine hoist. Jimmy Ronzello was just one of the guys helping get John back into the program. With all the negative here on Class Racer, it sure is refreshing to see racers come together and help a fellow racer in need.

Ken that's what the drag racing family is all about, we may be a bit dysfunctional at times but we do come together in times of need.
