The truck went kaputski... so I'm off to build a bigger scarier monster, hopefully it'll be immune to "kersplosions"... I won't be online much, because this is gonna cost me, so I'll prolly snag a second job for parts and ish... if you got questions hit up my pm box... as I prollyy won't have much time to browse... PEACE till April!

yikes. what exactly happened?

 

[KAuss]

He had oil in the 2nd cyl prior to the meet already and apparently it seem to be more than just a flood... Don't know exactly what caused it but it could of been as serious as a piston ring...

Well, when he finally got it home, he just said the oil was spewing out from where the head meets the block... We all know what that means when you see that happening

RIP

 

[ochizon]

it usually means a headgasket. Thats not a big deal. Pull the head and see whats going on, alfred, it might not be a big deal.

 

[toyotaracer9]

sorry to hear bro. was that a stock bottom end ? u had a metal headgasket correct ? .

 

[Proteus503]

lame bro.

why not just swap the engine out? $800 and you could be rolling again.

call me if you need some help and/or advice.

 

[Firdaddy]

after telling me not to quit for this long and you quit?:shrug:

 

[TucsonTaco]

Good luck to you sir.

 

[dropthattaco]

Dude, that is mad no good. now you're gonna out do me again. and then i'm gonna blow mine up, and have to out do you again. this is gonna become a very expensive vicious cycle.

 

[Racer_X]

I didn't say I was quitting- I said I was focussing on making ignorant SHlT a reality... I'm ready for low 12's... and the tear down is coming nicely, but I need to build the motor from the ground up and today is the perfect day to start!

I'm building up everything to not only perform well, but look well too! Alex I'm sure the block is fine, but the head is prolly fragged... I'll prolly need a new head, and pistons, and rods... I just need to take my time with the build up, and It'll be smokin....

Thanks for everyone's concerns, and I'll keep ya'll posted- I'll perhaps even do a write up!

 

[Firdaddy]

good deal man.. i was gona have to e-kick you if you were givin up:nana: any eta? you do need a second job.. you dont even ave a scanner for you 13 sec slips:lol:

 

[Racer_X]

[Jonathan]

yeah, my taillights, not my thingy, perv :lol:

 

[dx-r]

So what did you think caused it to blow? Too much boost not enough fuel?

 

[Racer_X]

I'll see your taillights will I!? Cool, please doint dissappoint!

 

[Racer_X]

I think it had to do with a ****ty headgasket install by a hack shop out here!

 

[Jonathan]

do you know exactly what let go? if it was a headgasket issue, usually thats nothing major to fix.
