Did the tire fail because of the load and speed it's subjected to on the dyno? Several straps placing weight on it and 130mph wheel speed could certainly get things toasty enough to cause a failure on multiple back to back runs.

It's a six speed so I think they are close to the limit of the head gaskets. Six speeds you will get away with a few more hp before you push the gaskets. Time will tell.
