The Project is OVER, DONE, KAPUT. after running it last night everything was fine..saw a few minor water leaks..temp sensor..fixed them today. Then I was going to run it to get the video...and WHAM motor seized..would not move clockwise or back counter clockwise. First thought starter jammed took it out, everythings fine. Ok to much fuel..took out plugs and tried to bar it over again, nothing. Checked oil condition..looks GREAT. So I use the fiberoptic camera to look in the spark plug hole..I see on #1 rotor housing a nice shiney wide scrach marking..so I pull entire intake off and the exhaust to check the other sides...same thing. #1 rotor destroyed and I'm betting the rotor housing too. I might put in an old school chevy V-8 that has 13.5:1 compression. I don't know yet what I want to do with this.
