Default I broke the LS7

Well, it happened! Some might recall me talking about my C6Z06 road race machine and how I always think the engine was going to crap out.

IT DID! Broke a spring, bent a pushrod and valve.

The whole thing is torn down and should be back up an running shortly! WITH
H / C AND FAST102

Here is the link with pics, I did hit a forced 7k downshift at 4:39 in my video which most likely helped kill the spring.

**** HAPPENS...I thought I would share with my fellow V community!

The valve did make contact with the piston but its COOL!

Yeah, I mean, I wish I could afford a Z06 and a Z06 but realistically,
Volvo SUV Beater and NINJA Z06 for pleasure, sounds pretty good AND if I want to stick to my original GOAL!

DRUM ROLL PLEASE.........

Twin Turbo Superleggera Gallardo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OH SNAP! I SAID IT!!!!
