Scott - does anyone know what's going wrong with them? (and don't say the brand name on the valve covers ) I know they're obviously trying all sorts of bore/stroke/rod length/journal size combos, but you'd think that Roush would kill dyno motors, but make the race ones a little less extreme...

Rick - thanks for the feedback. It seems hard to imagine that the ring gear would wear in such a short time! Has it been radically lightened?
