@billheis Hey Bill. Turns out that it was fuel that was hydrolocking the motor. Most likely one of the seat & needles were stuck open and just letting fuel dribble into the intake. When I drained the engine oil about 3 gallons of fuel + oil came out. The motor is ok. Whew! It is coming out anyway - putting a new 660 HP R1A+W5+W8 motor in there real soon now...
no shit new 660 HP mmmm yum yum on the adrenal!!

@yamahonkawazuki I am definitely keeping this 340. I am thinking of turning it into a blown street 340 to use in a future car.
