Here is just a sample of how bad it is. The block is split from no. 1-4 main-cam-lifter valley area I am guessing that the engine made 350+ passes. I will try to get better pics the flash wont work on my dig camera for some unknown reason. If anyone wants more pics email me. Later. David (The Block Breaker) Lanman :confused: :eek:

John, I think it started breaking at Cordova FFW on my last pass the et & mph fell off more than I thought the conditions (weather) said it would. I changed the intake gasket last weekend and decided it would be best to test the car before BG. I met up with Larry at Dragway 42 we got them to give us a Pro tree. On my 1st pass the car didn't feel right I thought the timing wasn't right I advanced it 2 deg went up for a second pass when I hit 2nd gear it started vibrating so I short shifted 3rd the vibration got worse so I shut it down. And the block is now almost a 2 piece design no 5 main web is the only thing holding it togather. I hope to have the engine running with the 88 5.0 short block by Mon-Tue. Later.
