Default Its done!!

Well after alot of runs with this setup 116 octane in the standalone 67n 42f a/f was right around 11.0 I think the fuel solenoid failed at the top of 3rd at the track and when I got back I knew the plugs were knocked out and I saw some dexcool that sprayed. Limped the car home 40 miles it was misfiring I did change the plugs b4 I left for home. Car is a stock bottom end just cam headers 4l80e converter and 9'' ive gone 130mph with this setup oh well time for some ls6 heads and new gaskets and some studs. Checked the compression on the passenger side cylinder 2nd from the back and it had 0 so im assuming the piston is shot or something so it looks like I will have to get another shortblock.

Close to 200 on stock bottom end makes 160rw through a 4l80e so thats probably close to 200 flywheel. Sucks something failed otherwise it would still be fine either the timing tuner or fuel solenoid got screwed up mid run.
