Smokin a 450

I will let you in on my speed secrets. Try different sprocket combos. I run 15/44 when I want to drag race since the 500 has the power to get my fat butt going. Some times someone will crawl ahead of me at the start but when the 500 winds up into the power band it's all over for them. I'm 6'4" ...

more opinions

My Opinion

I do not like to give my opinion without more information so I will guess at a couple of things. 1. You shut the motor off as soon as you heard the scrapeing noise. 2.

My experience is telling me that there may be some sharp edges left over from hogging out the exhaust ports. What could be happening is the sharp edges get glowing hot and then chip away a little at a time and get in the cylinder. I think there are too many scratches and abnormal wear for an engine ...
