That's not good, that's for sure! I hope you pulled that off the stock head/cam combo, and not after you fired up the new one!

Considering RPM, it's more like this:

Nah Im just messing with you guys!

Ted and I put it in a vice and slammed it with a hammer to scare everyone!

The motor came apart rather clean, and the engine looks to be in tip top shape under the 10 years of dirt & oil. So far we only found a small head gasket leak as predicted but it didn't do any damage to the motor itself.

IF ANYONE HAS EVER INSTALLED A CAM AND WANT'S TO SUPERVISE, MULTIPLE BRAINS ARE ALL WELCOMED TO STOP BY AND HELP!!!!!

Hopefully I get this one stubborn bolt out tommorow, and find another missing bolt & with a help from everyone we will be starting the re-built and hopefully provided the computer comes back in time I will be firing it up unless someone has a spare 95 core to run it untuned.
