After my weekend at C-bus and only getting to do a burn out I worked on my car. I thought I had a headgasket leak. The car would start leaking when it got heat in it. I did a compression test and leak down everything looked good. I put some pressure on the radiator and she started leaking. I got the header out of the way and found the cylinder head had a hairline crack by the sparkplug hole. When it would get heat it would open up. As soon as the great guys at BES get er done. I will be right back in it.

Tony, Kenny, Brian, and the Rest of the BES guys got my head all welded up pretty and pressure tested. I lapped in the valves and put the head togther. If the worlds align I hope to test it this weekend. Thanks BES for taking care of the little guys too.

Tim where are you testing this weekend? We'd like to go testing ourselves. But I need to run some underground wiring. Only have one leg of 220 volts in the garage. Happened around the same time of the earthquake.

Saturday looks the best weather wise. I probably will go down to Tristate.
