    Sux 'bout the motor.

    Now I know I'm not real bright, but splain somthin' to me. How in the phuck does a piece of metal from a cat travel UP stream against the exhaust flow/turbulance, UP through the header/manifold .... make the turn UP hill into the UP stream side of the chamber and enter the cylinder at the exact nano second the valve was open..... ?

    Sounds like either God made that shit happen or your dealer dude is trippin' hard

    Tell him I'd like a bag of that shit

    Never heard of anything like that before Sounds more like a valve seat let go and bounced around inside the chamber. I have seen that happen....

    Anyway.... good luck on the new motor-
