Juat another fun week of racing a mustang!!

Well, the guy that built the motor said he had never seen a Cam bearing 'walk' out of it's location on a 302.

I/we could only conclude that the Cam Bearing did this based on a number of thngs.

1.) Stock Block (even with Stud Girdle)
2.) Shifting at 7800 Rpms.
3.) Solid Motor mounts putting stress on the side walls of the block.

4.) 13:1 Compression
5.) High Pressure valve springs putting ungodly pressure on Cam.

Okay, with all of this twisting and turning at High Rpms it would appear that the flexing of the block caused the cam bearing to walk out.

The solution for now, was to put Red Loctite on Bearing when pressed back in and then to switch from Solid Moroso Motor Mounts to the the Energy Suspension Motor mounts to add a little give.

A week and a half off the road and it felt like a month and a half.
