My brother was visiting and we went out for a ride , (how many stories start like that?) I had messed with the rev limiter and must have set it too high , we took off and hit a wet part in the road at 3rd gear and it revved so fast ...ka boom # 8 right into the pan .
New engine is almost ready to go in and the improvements will be for the better
I know one tiny speck of funk and the bearings are toast , anyone want a
oil cooler and about 16' of braided line ..slightly used ..WD
