get ready for the novel. i just rebuild 2002 300ex: mid web cam, heavy valves springs, wiesco high-compression piston, e-bros header and pipe, port/polish, 140 main jet, k&n filter, 12 tooth front.
it ran great. more power etc. seemed to be getter hotter than before. everyone said of course more gas more air etc. 2 tanks of gas taking it easy on it.
well....it just took it out yesterday and after 5 minutes. TING!!! and skidded to a stop.
got her home and apart. took some prying of course. the flange on the top of the sleeve broke off then launching the sleeve into the crank. piston and rings f@#ked. metal everywhere.
WHY??????????????????????????????????????????????? ???????
i'll post pics later, it makes me sick to look at now!:mad:
