Broke a piston on 17 lbs WHY!!!
#61
Straight on. 6 o clock
Thats mine.We were running on the springs at Greer (10 lbs) and had a shock problem. Only ran 5.38
Thanks
I know I'm no help....
but blazingfast, where are you located??? There's a really badass GTO in your bodystyle that I saw at greer (sc) the other day running similar numbers with a twin turbo LS2 setup.
regardless, hope you get it figured out and back up and running soon. Sounds like a great car.

lean corners on blowthrough seems to be fairly common on the ford engines also.

the opposite happens with efi because the fuel flow to each cylinder is the same but air flow is higher on the short runners.
I would definately put an EGT on that cylinder.
seems like it would have showed up on the plug sooner.

Someone mentioned 8 EGT sensors. How do you monitor 8 gauges same time? Will take alot of space, too.

I remeber dutweiler doing elbow, turn down testing on some manifolds, and nothing was how it was suppose to be. He ended up offseting the hats on the ntakes a couple inches to get closer to an ever distribution. It could probably be done like the turbo buicks also, with a plate. Search power plate on tb.com.....Jason Crammer (friend) in Utah makes them for buicks. Same problem different hole.

The cheap way is to use something like an extech hand held with peak /hold. I have a couple of them. One does 4 stations at the same time, with peak hold.. Then you just move your probes around for a few passes in testing to find the lean cylinders, then keep an eye on those. The best part is you just turn it on, and view it after a pass.....as long as your pretty sure you wont actually melt anything. It might take a few half, 3/4 passes to get confortable knowing your tune before making full passes.

He is correct, I have seen Knock on a graph but it was not present at logging, Why? dont know but maybe because spool up time was so fast and at a very short burst it did not have time to pick it up. Under extreme cylinder pressure and a rotating mass spinning at a very high RPM, it doesnt take much to detonate for 1 second and cause the damage you received...

Never trust a KR log, depends on the sensors sensitivity settings. Whats your comp? You are nice and rich but timing kills. on 17psi with those big turbos you generate a lot of cylinder pressure and those pistons may not take it weather its detonating or not. I would be running a headset with that much boost to check knock and I would pull a few degrees back from there, I bet mph would not drop off anyway.
