Kaboom
Was at norwalk on 9-11, on the second pass it let go with a bang. These rods (lunati pro billet) were 5 years old. I thought about replacing them last winter, just didn't have the funds with the rest of the work I did on the car. I have the bone stock (12,000 mile) ls1 that came in the car. I am going to put it in for now. Maybe chase the stock LS1 record. Car is very heavy, 3825 on the norwalk scales. Good news is the aluminum block will get me in the low 3700 area.

There was no detonation. The plugs are like brand new. When the piston got busted it opened that chamber and pushed a **** ton of aluminum into the intake. It then went through all the other chambers. There were pieces of ring and piston in some of the chambers. There was oil all the way up to the intercooler and chunks of aluminum laying against the throttle body. I had made about 15 passes with the same boost and tune and checked the plugs 3 times, the engine never pushed any water at all. It was a very soft tuneup.
