Re: My engine is hurt...dangnabit

I put a rebuilt 350 in my truck once and on the way to Tahoe the Exaust stud broke. I thought the engine let loose because it was popping back through the carb. That exaust has to go somewhere I guess. I was with a truck club and they knew someone in the area that could fix it. I was back on the road in about 3 hours. Good thing it was one of the front cyl. I was in Sacramento which is about 90 miles from home.
