First engine lasted 20 miles before the cam wiped out filling the engine with metal chunks...... Many things contributed to that fiasco. Engine #2 was built almost 2 yrs. ago, then I decided "What the Hell..." and did the body & paint last year. This year I might actually drive the damn thing....

....if I don't burn down the garage and go buy a new car.

I'm SORRY but I have to say HA,HA.I thought only this kinda stuff only happens to me LOL...
You want to hear somthing scary.I bought a stroker 496 from Speed-O-Motive out of CA.It lasted me about 40 miles.Come to find out they installed a defective cam bearing.The oil holes in the bearing were not punch out all th way.The bearing heated up came loose,cam walked,lifters poped out'and guess what no oil pressure.The Great Speed-O-Motive would no stand behind there work.So I was out $6000.00.
So you guessed it I was not laughing.
