Tell me that is not your oil from the weekend Dan.

Maybe head gasket?
Nope. Crack from one of the rear head bolt holes to valve cover gasket rail. About 1/2" long but I don't know if it runs down the bolt hole or not yet. Happened when the heads got cooked on the dyno and just didn't notice it till I ran it and dumped the oil.
Nope!
Dan, next they will want you to put on a electric fan and water pump. 
Easy 30+hp JamesDan, next they will want you to put on a electric fan and water pump.
Mind you, I still run mechanical clutch fan and water pump.

Can it be repaired Dan?
I won't know for sure till I get it off.
Lonnie I never got a chance to see it go down the track. I think they made many passes over the weekend.
He was running a large vacuum tank in the trunk to operate the three twos.

It was a fun time. Didn't get the 3rd run with James for the tie breaker, maybe next time. Saturday night I got the jump him and ran 7.34 for the win. Sunday he got an 002 light ran an 11.59 & I ran 11.57 (new best time for me) but he got there first. So we need a tie breaker. Don't know when that will be. Maybe the crusher can set up a meet next year for a Mid-West shootout.
James it was fun and a pleasure meeting you, hopefully we will meet again. I'm not home yet, doing some sightseeing with my family. Should be home by Sunday, it's a long haul from SLC, UT., but a great time.
