Boy you guys have got me rolling.... thanks for all the good answers
It looks to me like a small BB but have no idea how it got in there
I remember one morning I fired the engine and it was running on
three cylinders I revved it up and it started firing on all four again.
The funny thing I ran that engine many more times that year at
El Mirage , World Finals and on the dyno and it still made the same
power. Go figure I try to smooth all the sharp edges out of the
chamber in hopes of preventing detonation.
Thanks Rick
