Wennys mk3???
As above what's been happening with it haven't seen anything on here for a while? Last I heard it ran a low 10 I believe?
Any videos or pictures of the beast?

Sadly the exhaust cam sheared where it exited the cam bearing and the pulley/end of the cam came off.
As it happened at 8000rpm+ it's made a fair mess of things

That is bad news! That thing flew when I seen him at Ford Fair.
I take it a new build or rebuild is on the cards?

Think plans are already in place for taking the engine to SCS to sort out the rebuild.

The amount of time and money he already has in it, he wont let a 'little' thing like stop him. he has an addiction to driving very fast, and very hard
