Mine has been for two weeks and down until february.
I was just going to pull the heads off and get them cut and new valve springs since they were weak....until I found out how week they were.
Tony, lucky we only had 3 rounds in the Big Dog race. Pulled the valve covers to pull off the heads and find needle bearings all in the top of the heads from the rockers breaking into abunch of peices. A few of the rockers are locked up and some are split open at the fulcrum. The valve springs were coil binding, luckily I decided not to go racing at shreveport last weekend.
BTW if anyone needs a race motor I have a 355sbc for sale. Ran 10.80s in my car(built a new motor, this is my backup).3x NHRA/IHRA Division 4 Champion

Since April of last year when I bought it, will easily be there for another year or so. In the time I've owned I've pulled out the windshield, bought a couple of interior pieces and dissassembled the motor, I'm on pace to have it done by the time "hot rodding" is banned.

I've been down probably a year and a half now. Although I'm not sure if I still qualify. The car runs and kind of drives. There are some issues that need to be worked out to make it practical. So right now its up on jack stands waiting on me to drop the take and do a little up grading in the fuel system department.

Seb's high class.
He'll mow your grass.
He'll kick your ass.
And while his kidney stones pass,
He'll piss in a glass!
