After all the rain cancellations, U joint failure, roll pin in the dizzy failure, the engine finally said F it at the track yesterday.
One of the poly locks broke, the bottom 1/4 is gone including the set screw. I'm guessing that the parts are in the oil pan. When the lock broke, the roller rocker came off which let the push rod come up and let the lifter come out of the bore. The PR fell back down and I'm guessing that is what tore up the end of the chrome moly PR. The rocker stud is now buggered up and I'm betting the cam lobe is buggered up too. :roulette
I'll tear it apart sometime this winter, but for now it's in the trailer...in the barn....in solitary confinement. F'n car
The good thing was that just before it broke (during the 1st session of an ALL DAY track event) I turned the quickest lap to date!!
