Dr. Pomade Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 So, the verdict is in, and it isn't pretty. That's the #2 cylinder, in case you are wondering. If you're going to blow something up, I guess there's no use in only blowing it up a little. http://ipsmotorsports.net/pictures/Picture%20001.jpg http://ipsmotorsports.net/pictures/Picture%20003.jpg I haven't decided on where to go from here. In the running include a 427 or going the twin turbo route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Pomade Posted October 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 looks like it leaned out on ya and burnt a hole in it.... tuning = the win Wow. Thanks for the diagnosis. I always heard that it was bad luck to tune a car once it's been modded. Next time I'll know better, I guess. what about a twin turbo 427? Now you're talking, homie.

villision1647545496 Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 John, sorry to hear about that, hopefully the winter build-up goes extremely smooth. This way you can forget about this non-sence. Did you have a plate system or single point? Maybe you had a faulty solenoid, nitrous stuck? I highly doubt it puddled on you. Nevertheless, I am sorry about your misfortune, Just use it to your advantage and go stupid (Yeah, I already know you said you are going bigger, I just want to emphasize it).

SPLN SUX Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 Why do a 427 when you can have a 457 http://www.cartek.net = winner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nate1647545505 Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 White specs = detonation, were there any other cylinders like that? I can see some specs lightly on the other cylinders in the pictures, but were any as bad as that on the other bank? I have a feeling something wicked this way comes.
