The Engine

My friend down in Texas, Bob Malechek agreed to inspect my engine.  Bob is a long time hot rodder from way back and he knows performance engines.

Even though the prop strike was "minor" it warranted tearing the engine down.  Generally, it looked pretty good, most noteworthy, the crankshaft was not bent! Bob did find some issues with the crankcase, and sent it to Divco for repairs.

As of today, most of the components are back in Texas and Bob will start putting it all together.

Good progress.
