We did take it as joke, but since you never clarified it left us wondering. Funny how some little things stick in your mind all these years. That joking comment was one of such items. We got about same amount of runs out of cranks. Blocks would start cracking in main bearing area on both sides of oil hole and run up towards bottom of cylinders. We could see fine lines on back of top main bearing half, as well as visible crack in block webbing and when we saw a change in color between fine lines on back of bearing we knew the block webbing was starting to move between two cracked areas. We knew it was time to change block, of course that only worked if every thing else stayed in one piece that long. We did lift blower couple of times, but that was my fault jumping in and out of throttle when out of shape.

Dave, read message I left on Tom's page about cracking parts on fuel in old days. I have been trying to firgue out if it was you, Tom or some body else with the Banning operation, that made that comical comment years ago. I just remember the comment and team connection, not the where and when.
