heck, six cyinders, we just had a V-16 throw a rod. It was a generator on a casino boat. We could barely hear a knock, captin said let it run, went back to check on it and parts were flying out at us, I will try to get pics, the pistons are bigger than coffee cans in this motor.

I remember riding by and seeing that thing on fire. It was a site the flames were really high.

How'd the dale catch ablaze? Wasn't that at a GNCC race?

Cut off swingarm! Swingarm bolt was seized to bearing case and spacers. Lubing that thing after every ride now!

I just took the valves out of a head and they looked a little strange. I am wondering if I should reuse them?
