[QUOTE]Originally posted by Yellow94GT: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Marshall Mathers: [qb] I have bad news. I highly doubt my car will be ready for the event. After slapping on a new oil pan and a bunch of other bolt on parts not to mention dropping about 250 lbs of weight off the car (160 of that off then nose alone) I noticed that the counterweights on the crank are rubbing the main caps. It seems the transmission pushed forward causing the thrust bearing in the motor to crush so now the crank is moving forward and backward. Guess my stock crank experiment just proved a negative return... Oh well... The engine is getting ready to come out. All the same parts will be used, a new forged eagle crank is going in as well as 4 bolt billet main caps and a new fuel system is getting ready to go in.... The car will NOT go back to the track until it'll go 9.70ish..... Which looks to be later in the summer or I might wait for the weather and make it early fall time.... But you never know I could show hurt crank and all and hit it with a 250 shot... Crazier things have happened... :) [/qb][/QUOTE]Sorry to hear the bad news. Hope all goes well with the latest build up :patriot: BTW, was you 10.4 @ 131 pass on motor or on the jug? [/QB][/QUOTE]
