Let me know if you ever want to get rid of the blower, I just might have enough $$ to take it off your hands.

I am going to tear it down tomorrow so I will keep everyone posted.

Oh boy .... I guess I need to pull the plugs on mine now too. I have some ticking, but I'm hoping/contributing it to leaky header gaskets. I got lazy putting them back on and didn't clean the surface and replace the gaskets.

ahhhhhhhhhh, the infamous #7. this is what i did to my #7, you just did a better job of it. sounds like you streched the rod or screwed up the wrist pin based on what you said about the plug.[img]file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Gregory%20Miller/My%20Documents/PICT0001.JPG[/img]

TT ... is that a new style piston? A low compression piston? Is it suppose to have a hole on the other side like the one on the top too?

HE HE HE
