Default 523 hp @ 5900 rpm

David got the call from DART about an hour ago. Here I am standing in line at a store with my daughter waiting to pay for her school cloths, and David calls me. I am anticipating him telling me that alot of stuff was wrong and that it will be a costly repair. But that was not the case.

After looking through the motor DART said that it was a defective crankshaft, that they put in. So they changed the crankshaft and the bearings. Put it together, ran it on the dyno and everything looks good. It ran 523hp @ 5900 rpm with 513 ft lbs torque. WOW !!!

At no charge.

I am so excited. But I will have to wait til Monday to get the motor cause my brother is on his was to Norwalk for a race this weekend. I just can't stop smiling.
