Message They believe that it may have been a blocked oil passage that resulted in the head heating up and warping, because the journals on each side of the cam were scored, but no where in the middle. So that says the ends were tight, which means the head was warped, and the only thing that can feasibly warp the head is is heat. Since it was only one cam that siezed, we can conclude that the others were getting the necessary oil (like I said, I was watching it as closely as possible), but this one was not. They're going to look more into it in the coming days to make sure it doesn't happen again. In the meantime, Chris from Ultimate Z and I are both on the lookout for a used TT head to replace it with, he thinks his machine shop has a few. On the brighter side of everything, they're considering hiring me as a parts vendor and to update their website (because we all know their website doesn't show nearly everything they sell) - we're negotiating Monday. So you may have a new guy to get parts from (not that I'd expect you to rank me as high as Coz, Chip, George, Rob, Kyle Puckett, or any of those guys right away) =D
