What are your spec's

Post by **WDRacing** » Sat Dec 16, 2006 2:21 pm

By far, the coolest video I've ever seen...I'm sorry it happened to you though. I had the exact same thing happen to me, cept mine died right away...I can't fvcking believe your's was still running.

All I can say is...if you're gonna blow it, that my friend was THE best way I've seen so far.

All bow down to the truck motor

Post by **KATwo40** » Sat Dec 16, 2006 2:34 pm

Yeah, the engine running while you can see it's innerds was pretty amazing!

Post by **nissanfanatic** » Sat Dec 16, 2006 3:10 pm

So what went wrong? What fuel were you running?

Post by **WDRacing** » Sat Dec 16, 2006 4:39 pm

He either spun a bearing or snapped a rod...fuel would have nothing to do with that type of failure.

I think I'd rather go with Foster's method. He threw a rod and blew his starter right off the block in the process, and peices of piston, rod, and block were all over the highway. But this is the best SOHC story.

hahaha thanks for standing up for me James! lol.

Yeahhhh that sound is pretty familiar. I think I described it before as "one of those sounds that couldnt possibly be anything minor."

Bad times man, bad times. At least you didnt have any money in the motor.

Can't kill the truck motor. Still runs....... I have 2 SOHC blocks,with head etc. and a sohc ecu and wiring harness. Very cheap.

Post by **gabossie** » Mon Dec 18, 2006 2:10 pm

Damn, that's wicked. Love watching the motor run with a hole in the block!

Post by **Edub1** » Mon Dec 18, 2006 4:11 pm

Is that a T3/T4? 25lbs was probably over 400HP. How were you pulling timing, how much?

Post by **jdm_master_X** » Mon Dec 18, 2006 4:27 pm

damn that has to be the beastiest SOHC ive seen to date. way to live it down, brah!

Not true about the fuel...

When detonation takes place, it creates and INCREDIBLY high combustion chamber during a position in the piston stroke that is not desirable for such high pressures (i.e. before TDC). The octane and boost levels, along with timing, play a role in this. So yes, fuel can cause a rod to go.
