New Dale "What to do?"
Hey guys I just purchased a left over 2003 S440 with 0 hours on it. I was wondering what the deal is with the engine? Will it hold up? From the looks of this site I need to send it out. If that is the case I might just sell it. I want to race SM next year and not worry about fixing it every two seconds. Any imput would be great. Thanks

So sorry, serious bummer. The factory setup without proper shimming sent most everything out with a built in "separation"
stress on the motor mount lugs... is that what happened? Or cracked up higher? Some motor mount updates can be just as bad with a tight center spacer and no shims elsewhere between motor flanges and cradle. I've been using a couple of versions all stainless with no-pinch no-pull no-slop and no excuses... just hope you get it fixed reasonable, and stay with us.
