yeah me over revving the thing when it started to load up
When that red needle goes into the red and reads 7000 THATS BAD
I need to put rev limiters on these things and this wont happen again.
Has the MSD I think its just a chip you slip in the thing to limit it if I remember correctly.
And yeah those are just shadows you see in that pic.
Lucky, Yeah I think you are right, Time to just haul it down to Herb and let him have at it.

I'm sure you'll sleep better at night knowing it's fixed. ;) Well at least I would...

If my boat was down for a couple months up here in NJ we would loose the entire season. I guess things are different down in Florida.

Is it fixed yet??????????

not yet, having another engine built at MESA Balancing at the moment so this is sitting for now. I am also trying to finish my house stuff and then bring the boat home for the weekend and pull the engine apart and fish those lifters out of the valley. She needs a bath real bad too, she is DIRTY!

Jay check the lifter bore carefully. Lot of time if the lifter busted in the bore it will score up the lifter bore and it will have to be bushed. I'd still want to know what kind of heads are on that think. Do you have a picture of the rockers on the hear that would help.

We use to run a 525 inch KB olds with Dart big cheif heads and had a lot of trouble braking rocker arms and lifters. It used an offset lifter and it would split down the side near the offset.. The problem with it ended up being the head.
