Motor went to heaven today
 

:( I went to Baton Rouge today, 3000rpms 56miles 1 way. On the way home, 8 miles from home a lifter started tapping. Right away I noticed that the motor was rough, and down on power. I limped home, good oil press, temp fine. When I got home I figured it to be plug wires. It would bairly shoot fire from four of them, and the pluggs looked like crap. I went to morgan city in the cougar and got new accel cap rotor and wires and a fresh set of platinums and a oil change. The tune up really helped but I still had a pop in the exhast and it reved rough, took a little spin and it was not right. Me and the wife and my daughter went for desert at the resturant, I was not good company. Got home at dark and I could not stand it any longer. I found a broken rocker arm. Thank GOD, I will sleep better tonight, tommorrow I will get the bucket with the rollers out of the shed. Thank you GOD.

Never realized it before, But I am stationed in New Orleans and travel to Tx all the time, So I go really close by you, we've race a few times in Donaldsonville, but mostly in Houston. Next time you wanna go to Donanlsonville for some testing or soemthing let me know and we'll meet ya, I would love to see the car we heard so much about! I will let you know when I get back from the War.

I fixed it today, every thing else looked good. Rather than take the time to install the roller rockers I just put a nother stock one on it. But I did take the time to install the supercharger. I will get a belt during the week. It went well. I have a few issuse, but I'll take care of them. I even put the slicks on late this evening and went spray a camaro that kept passing and reving and making noise.

YOU ARE SUPERCHARGED NOW!!!??!! YESS!!! SWEEET!!!

glad to hear it was nothing to bad, i don't live to far from you guys also (zachary). we go to "no problem" every now and then but most often we just go to state capital in erwinville
