Well, I finally found the limits of my engine. Went to the track saturday and now have two windows in my oil pan.
I guess it didnt like the 18 lbs of boost on it.

I was on my way to a 11 second run if it had not blown.
Best 60' previously was 1.81, this run was a 1.72. My 330' previous best was 5.19, this run was 4.99, didnt make it to the 1/8th.

Oh well, I will be ordering a built shortblock next week

 

sweet, are you the first to grenade an '03?

 

I think so....maybe thats my only claim to fame

 

That 2nd pic is great! Not in a good way for you but now you get to upgrade your engine and downgrade your bank account.

 

At least it gave your truck a good undercoating

Man I really gotta get some Manley Rods in my truck

 

Is it just me, or have I seen a lot of guys posting the all famous KABOOM in the last couple of weeks??? Must be the cold weather. Also makes me wanna go with a smaller pulley and a safer tune. Unlike some of the people here, even though I'd like to, I can't afford a new engine right now. Good luck to you man, I am sure that new engine will get you in the 11's. Later!

 

Yup. Cooler weather, more HP made, faster to the point of BYE-BYE rods

Sorry KB ZILLA - but congrats on the new shortblock

 

I feel for ya buddy, mine went boom about 7 weeks ago. You seem to have a good atitude about it. I guess when you know is going to happen eventually, it gives you time to prepare.

 

Whens the motor removal/install party

 

Sorry to hear the news, he!! with that new short block a 10 sec run is just around the corner.

D-Day

 

Sorry to hear about the motor! Mine just went last week! Jeff

 

Sorry to hear about the truck zilla. at least the built motor is coming. Good luck with that.

 

Look's like a FMJ went through that!
Nice way to convince your wife that you need a new motor. Think I might try it!

 

Sorry to hear that your engine blew, but I do have one question.

Were'nt the BOP reflash'es supposed to tune to the perfect A/F ratio's and timing curves no matter what?

AY
