wish it was as easy as that bro, but knowing Orville, i expect a teardown to inspect bearings etc as no chance will be taken with this engine [whistle]. As the saying goes, better safe than sorry bro. Iknow Orville is disappointed also after feeling the potential of the MACHINE. A little longer wait wont kill you [2thumbsup] [2thumbsup]

So true Monti.When I going down on my second and final run for the day,as soon as I pulled 4th gear I realized that the oil pressure was under 20 psi,I then shut it down on the run and after which we realized that it had blown the oil filter seal out,thus causing all the oil to be blown out of the engine.
After which we decided to call it a day,better to be safe than sorry.
I am very pleased with the performance thus far and believe me if I had known that it was that close I would not have shut it down ;D.
The work will continue and some serious changes will be made.As usual we will keep you all up to date.
