Sorry for the engine troubles John.

I hope the replacement engine brings you nothing but success.

Best of luck the second time out at NJMP -- and the rest of the season!

Regards,

Steve

Took engine out Sunday, and found this.. Looks like I dropped an exhaust valve in #8, you can see the valve stem still intact. There is no other visible engine issues other then the dropped valve, no signs of pre-detination, no signs of overheating...
