Well here's the deal with it, I bought it at a steal, $1700. Had it in for about a year and it blew. Now keep in mind, while yes I am still considered a youngin by some people I never thrashed this engine. I always kept the oil changed and checked at regular intervals and one day while doing a tune up it developed a nasty rough running condition. After checking it out I found the problem to be a leaking carberator gasket. Ok got that fixed, still ran rough but then started making a knocking sound. After a teardown, I found the issue. Two pistons had completly come apart, shattered basically. So its in the machine shope gettin all fixed up. With hopes I'm looking to get atleast around 350hp.
