Mike made his first run at Speed Week and suffered engine problems. He did a compression test and found one cylinder had zero compression. He ran the piston up to the top and looked in through the spark plug hole, the piston dome had some rather large cracks in it. That engine has never been apart since it was built in late 1999 or early 2000, no too bad for an engine that is 60 years old, almost as old as I am.
