I watched that last week. Very cool. Richard has not even sat in it since he got out of it after the last race he ran in it.

When someone says Chaparral, the first thing I think of is

What's the deal with a 318 Chebby? I've heard of a 262, 265, 283, 302, 305, 307, 327, 350, 383, and 400 small block but never a 318. Poked out 302?

stroked 283...
3.37" stroke is awfully random. I wonder if the engine builder stroked the 283 crank? Either way that's pretty unique.
So I figured why my car was down a cylinder at TWS... The intake lifter in cylinder #5 decided to disintegrate... The pushrod (not bent) was sitting at the bottom of the lifter case. Not sure why this made the O2 read lean, but still need to do a full leak down before pulling the engine out...
Made an agreement with Trina that I could only do major work on one car at a time, so since the '57 just had it's engine redone, I will have to wait on this engine if it's something above/beyond a set of lifters and gaskets... Should have it pulled down in a few weeks. Just need a clear weekend day to pull it apart.
