Welp,, blowed my S**t up again

Glad it's dune season,, I'm so disgusted I'm ready to give up. The money pit POS motor is wounded again after only 20-30 laps. And it's not like I beat up on this thing!!! 6500/6800 shift with a motor built for 7500+ and it's acting like a spun bearing...... but only a slight tap tap tap that sounds more like a broken valve spring,,, but valve springs dont effect oil pressure. oil psi dropped to 30 psi at idle (1200rpm).. PSI comes back to 60+ with even a slight rpm (1800+) but so does the tap tap tap...... I'm betting spun rod bearing. Glad this season is OVER,, I'm done!

I just did my taxes and reviewed my SS statement. Thanks to the current administration it looks like I will only have to work till noon on the day of my funeral.
