There weren't any !!!!!....
Smooth strong revving....then a " shudder" through the car....and the engine stopped like I'd hit the "kill" switch....( or...as I have it marked on the
dash " Sh*t " switch !
The block actually "pops" apart....it's certainly not a gradual thing that's for sure
Late evening last night....new engine fired up and sounds really strong...
I recon that the thicker engine block seems to muffle any sounds coming from the engine bay...and the sound coming out of the pipes sounds way stronger....
Back to it now.....
some running in bits and pieces to be attended to....
Dyno early next week ( Running in, and a final tune )
....ready for the A series sprints...Racing next Friday.
Would LOVE it to be the last major drama for a while....really over it!
Cheers,
Warren.
