Looks great since you added some WW I decided to do a little tribute. This is a work in progress so send me some better pics and I'll do a full blown replica.

The car is not back in our possession yet but from what Ivan saw at the track it looks like a piston was hurt. The motor still spins but it has no compression in one cylinder. Until we get the car back and apart that is all we know.

We doubt something went wrong with the piston itself because we ran these in our time attack car all season last year with no issues. Our guess is something happened that caused the car to possibly run lean. We don’t want to speculate too much but until we can take it apart that is a quick analysis of what might have happened.

THE 4B11 IS BIGGER THAN the k20 block so you can bore it out more and still have strong sleeves

Also, I had an opportunity to cover the entire rebuild and refresh process of the car on SpeedHunters.com which is a real honor! Check out the post in the link below, and leave a quick comment on there to let me know what you think of the FRESH new car!
