Logan appears unconcerned by the prospect of rebuilding or replacing the motor. He wipes his finger inside the tailpipes and notes there's no oil residue. That's a good sign, he proclaims. If the engine had major damage, there'd be black deposits from oil that leaked into combustion chambers. "We may at worst have to put in rings and gaskets and maybe a piston," he says. "And a valve."
"Of course, it could all be junk inside," he admits, then excuses himself to return some parts he's borrowed. His engine could be a wreck, and he's still racing on a shoestring, but he's content.
Jim Logan is living his dream. And that's good enough.
