I have an ARP one in mine. Hope it didn't do too much damage!

I can't imagine I have enough power to break that shaft. But I hope to check it tonight.

Hey Dave, I was watching the video's, if you could get from one gear to the next a little faster, you would cut time off your run, you night want to practice that.

Yea, Yea, Yea. I have a lot to adjust to with this new motor and clutch. I need to stop bounching off the rev limter, find my shift points and figure out where the car likes to pull at. It was still a nice day out. But I have a lot to figure out about this new setup.

A new oil pressure sender unit and the dash gauge is reading pressure again. Of course the engine is cold now. We will see what happened when it heats up.

I found my valve train tap. It was a loose Roller Rocker.

I know I made at least one pass and then drove 1.5 hours home like that. I am impressed it held together the whole trip home.

Lot of side to side... make sure the needle bearings are ok...

The fulcrum is snapped in half.
I am going to get a new set roller rockers ASAP.
I am looking the Comp Cams Ultra Pro Magnum.
