Post Another Outrageous Performance engine bites the dust

Just letting everyone know that my Outrageous Performance motor finally bit the dust. I've had problems with it since day one and they kept getting worse. Every time I would try to do something else to the truck I would find more stuff that was done wrong leading to more problems. Also, Tommy has not been helpful one bit and really does not seem to give and *****. He has known of my problems from day one. Well I'm done venting.

As usual, there are many details left out for a complete explanation and there are two sides to each story; ref RTKILLA's tranny thread. 415 please expand on your "day one" troubles so we can pulverize the insurgents.

LMMFAO @ RT'S Tranny Thread, AH HA HA HA

Yes that would be fair

I'm real real sorry to hear this Goose $%@($%@*($%@$*(%@*($
and God knows we've heard the horror stories before, but can you fill us in on what happen TO YOU.

I know you were questioning your idle when you got it back, I know you put down @ 500/600 on the Apten, and wasn't over joyed on the results,
I know you've posted some mad faces and edited post @ Outrageous,
and I see "from searching post" when you originally asked about them, everyone gave you great reviews. (even Matt so it must have been a while ago)

But we dont know the story and we can all learn by hearing it,
AND OR BE PROTECTED

So sorry Bro....

Whatever happened to RTKILLA?

Sorry to hear about your engine bro. Its stories like this that make me worried to get one, or put to much power on my stock block. All I hear about is guys blowing stuff up. Doesn't anyone have a cheerful story for me?
