125 shot of nitrous on an all stock engine did it in, all I can guess is it had a weak rod or piston from the factory.

Yes, they were the M&H Racemaster 275/50/17 drag radials. I loved those tires, they hooked up as good as any 17" drag radial will.

Thank you all, my car is WAY faster, I have a baby that is more important than a 02 ws6, if you just got a subscription you will not get the current issue, it takes a month or two before they show up. I do not have pics of the wire tuck, just what you can see from the engine bay.
