First race of the season and i broke it Well i made it to the track last night and made 3 runs.
First run no issues. on motor
12.44 @ 111 1.86 60'
Second run
11.10 @108 1.68 60'
Nitrous back fire just after the 1/8th broke my air lid and MAF blew the lid right off the intake. Went to pits patched it up.
third run
11.57 @ 106 1.60 60'
shut down at the 1/8th. wouldnt start at end of track. Got a ride home and got the trailer.
pulled the #1 plug the ground electrode is gone the porcelin around the inside is gone, and the main electrode is prolly about a 1/4" shorter than it was. Appears as if i pressureized the cooling system also coolant all over the engine bay.
Will tear into it in the next few weeks and i'll take pics. hopefully i just took out the head gaskets and plugs.
The trusty 10 bolt with 2.73's held up and the 99,000 mile tranny did also. Im really supprised the motor is what let go.
Go big or go home.
i did both
