Hey Jeff,

I am an aircraft engeneer, so i can handle some tools, hahaha. the problem is i can hear my crankshaft bearings. For th erest it seems pretty ok. Also i need to overhaul my holly, it is very dirty inside and the second stage did not work for a long time. it is now working.

I do not know the healthyness of the engine, but it seems not to have all the horses. but that is my feeling....

i don't believe it's burning oil. the oil leeks between the crankshaft seal and the gearbox.

So i was told by the garage i have red heads. i don't know what that means.
i have also shorty's as exhaust headers. and the rest of the exhaust is arond 2 or 2 1/2 inch tubing. i have a underslung exhaust no side pipes..... it has also no balancingtube between the to exhausts.

So what are the cost, do you think, for a set of crankshaft bearings and pistonrings and seals and so on?

Thanks for the help so far,

with regards, John
