Trashed my LS engine and need to rebuild
Just thought I should form a thread on the subject, I don't want the Ford guys feeling as though they have all their own way.
Nothing wrong with my engine, but maybe, just maybe someone else does?

Whilst I agree there should be a ban on plastic engine covers (wear your chev with pride), it may be in the competitors best interest to ban those cars with engines prone to self destruction dropping oil all over the track reducing the already rain affected limited track time, like those little buzzy things or some other make that seems to be blowing up all over the place these days.
Discuss.........
I like Ash.
