Sorry to hear about the piston to valve disaster but glad to hear that Charles is helping you out with a new set of pistons.

Joe, hopefully the crank and rods are ok. Sounds like when you get her back together with the new parts it will be quite the powerplant.

I hope that works out for you Joe!
Frankly I am surprised something Shad built would have issues like that as he is very anal about quality building of things. I guess a bad part can bite anybody. If you need any stock T4 parts let me know as I need to go to the bone yard while I am in Atlanta this weekend. Granted for something like this I doubt you need anything as it is all custom. Good Luck!

Jake says the have to much lift for this engine and do not get oiled properly. They need a custom oiling system for the valve covers. I will be replacing the Pauters with stock 2.0 rockers (probably have them lightened)
