no, i didnt use flex hose, i just moved where the bracket was..
With everything bolted to the motor and isolated from the frame (like it used to be) things will continue to not crack.
update on the car, something is broken in the motor. everything was good with the tune i really dont know what happened yet, havent looked at it. but it did go 147.97 mph spinning.. i think thats the most mph for any ls1 6 speed maybe?

That really really really sucks, dont you have a W2W motor?
Im sure they will tkae care of you, they seem to be pretty standup.
Sucks to hear though, seems like no matter what you do there is a small kink.
I guess thats what happens when you are pushing the very mlimits of things.
hope for the best

What did it run, what tires were you on, and what were your 60fts? Thas some AWESOME mph!!! Sorry about the motor, hopefully its not too bad and is pretty easily (read: inexpensively) fixed.

Sucks to hear Dave. Ur mph is moving. Think it may be ur stock crank? Kurt in a post before mentioned you keep him scared keeping it. While tuning you get any dyno #'s with the new turbo?
While we all know this is what happens when we push the bar higher and higher. Hope its a cheap fix.

i dont think it was the crank, but it don't matter, i know kurt and the guys will fix it up good.
i didnt get any new dyno figures i only finished the set up thursday night. based on the psi and the mph even with the spinning it would have to be around a grand at the tires.
i have a feeling i wont be trying that much again without race fuel
