I sent the crank out to Pinsonnault Racing for a rebuild using a IMS rod, weld, true, and balance.
And, I installed the left radiator screen.
I didn't want you to think that this project was going nowhere....

Looking sharp...

now make sure the head matches.. so they both reflect the heat etc. and utilize the combustion process as power. instead of heat input.
