Well not sure if everyone saw but at the meeting in Austin we determined it was a cracked block... or certain enough to warrant pulling the engine

it is now back at the KCM hospital and Keith is trying to determine what is going on. The T.I.T. helped with the extraction process on Saturday and I drove the engine to AR on sunday. I spoke with Keith a few times today and they are still scratching their heads on what is going on... he can only determine it has to be the block has a crack that expands enough under temperature. Has a round of more tests to run before the complete diagnoses is published

Pictures of the engine extraction can be found here

More information to follow as I learn more
