Well had a customer bring his car in to get tuned and said he kept wacking plugs, so we through it on the dyno and made a hit after we got the motor tune worked out and it woke up hard core but went dead lean! So we traced it down the the Fuel Solenoid not working
So basically hes been hitting a 250 dry about 5 times now!

Wow, that's amazing that it held together, as the clyinder pressures must have been outrageous.
What was the a/f ? Yea, I like to run my 250rwhp dry hit, on stock longblock, way rich.

I've done that a few times. I contribute it not blowing to there not being enough fuel to feed the fire basically. My AFR had went off the chart, instantly spiking above 20:1 and not dropping until, well, after the run since I was thinking it was flooding out
Sucks when you find out you nearly melted the entire racetrack down with molten LSx engine aluminum. Then the amazement sets in that nothing melted, and you think to yourself, now I know why I bought the Bowtie! Good to hear you got it sorted out.
BTW, I also ran a 200wet with a ruptured intank fuel supply line, fuel pressure was almost nonexistant. Did that twice, would start hard, idle seemingly fine, and on the run would fall on its face, spraying loads of nitrous and hardly any fuel!
