Figured I'd take my Cobra out for a spin with the top down (and heat on). I was lovin it. Went thru the gears up onto the highway and ended up blowing it up. :rain

Motor is knocking real bad..... I suppose better to find out now than a month from now.....

I was on the fence about putting some forged stuff inside to replace the hyper pistons and powdered metal rods. I guess my hand has been forced.
