When they tossed me at Maple Grove. For having too little compression, they told me to come back with the head off. I told them "no way" I had driven the car there, and it took me way to long to tear a head off then put it together to make a run.
I sent them a nasty letter explaining the stupidity of there rule.
They then changed the rule LOL
So I went back to racing.

I hope so, because Im having a hell of a time "measuring" these head gaskets in layers like you told me to

.037 out of the hole and supposed to be AD......#$%^&* and I cant just use a nice 6.1 .039 and be done (on the 5.7) because the water is different.....#$%^&, Head is the same mind you block and gaskets are different...

Although at this point a year vacation may not be a bad idea, Puerto Rico and some sailing is looking better and better.....

Hey they race in PR....never seen so many rotaries.....
