Talking Return of the BAT RIDE

SS is in shop , They found a cracked piston and cylinder wall scaring.
Puting in new short block ? Not sure what that means.
All under powertrain warranty. 87,785 miles
Should be done mon. or tues.

Car was starting to use a little oil , Had been idleing a bit ruff on cold starts, Then Bam, On highway lost power and poured white smoke .

Hope all my friends are well , I've been working 6 days a week for months, And hav'nt been on here in a long time.

Nice to hear the Bat Ride is on the mend, I was starting to think that maybe you'd been kidnapped by Egghead or the Penguin.

Good to hear it's being covered.

Now would be a good time to toss the cam kit and springs in it from ZZP, just a thought.
