After the fiasco with the machine shop this spring and how far behind I got with the engine build, I decided to take this year and make it a building year. We were going to try and make Caesars Creek but it just wasn't in the cards. As you all can see, the LS is on the run stand and when I receive the last couple of small parts and figure out the wiring it will be ready to break in. The plan is to have a second motor ready to go since I have bought 2 of everything that I needed to build this one. So look for the E313 at the spring test at Caesars Creek and every inboard race here in the Midwest next year.

Well, the first race of the year is this weekend in Decatur IL. and due to circumstances out of my control the E313 will be sitting in the shop collecting dust. My two motors are still at the machine shop and are way overdue in being finished. We are still going to the race to help out, me with the S2 team and Jonathon is the Vintage Inspector. I'll be having words with the machine shop when we get back so it's not looking good for us to make it to any race before the end of July or maybe into August. I am hoping to make Rocky Fork and Caesars Creek.
