Yes we have couple of good block still spare but those two cracked are already machined to fit the pistons and straightened decks.
Our machinist(thanks to awesome https://fi-fi.facebook.com/PpAutokoneistus/ Wink who are also our sponsor might not like when we destroy blocks in every other race and welding is faster than machining whole block so we might get engine ready in race after next. Finnish summer is short and not-so-snowy like they say.

Shipping cost might be several hundreds if we want fast delivery. Otherwise block is here in autumn.

Looks like a we try to weld our blocks together. (Both splitted)
I look forward how welded block takes the abuse. 
There is nothing to lose (if big bang dont come to visit) I presume if failure happens, it might be only slipped cam bearing and lost oil pressure again so with WORKING LOW OIL PRESSURE SHUTDOWN risks are minimized.

Charlie, we have exactly what you said. Wonder why it didn't shut down the engine. SIMOOOO!!!w00tCrazyCrying




We had only one datalogged launch with oil pressure curve and zero pressure was calibrated 26 psi off. Upper pressure is not calibrated yet.
So didnt turn it on because I didnt want to ruin launch with oil pressure miscalibration. 😣
