    broke crower rod:(

    I think it speaks for itself... these Carillo "failures" would have been that much more catastrophic if it was a Crower rod in its place.

    Got my trans built but shifts extremely hard

    this :thumb: trap speeds tell the HP story However, HP is just a number. ET tells you how everything is working together...you often see a lower HP vehicle turn a much lower ET than a higher HP vehicle. What would you rather have, a vehicle that runs low 10's at 125 mph or a vehicle that...

    Got my trans built but shifts extremely hard

    If you had a blow off valve set to open at a lower psi than the wastegate, it would seem that the turbo could overspeed, which could most definitely cause it to "lock up"

    Cknight199 motor build thread

    traction affects ET more than it affects mph at the track. A good indicator of HP is the mph, a good indicator of how well the chassis works is the ET. Just because a truck doesn't hook up doesn't mean it won't run good mph, especially in 1/4 (not so much in the 1/8). Of course the mph will be...

    LB7 removed Fleece Allilocker, no start now.

    what an incredible feeling that must have been once you found out the ground fixed the issues. I can only imagine the relief that swept over all involved! Congrats on figuring out the cause of the issue :thumb:

    Automotive "terms" and fads that make you cringe

    nope, used to hear it all the time many years ago. I also used to ask them what it meant, most of them didn't even know any specs at all about their "3/4" or "full" race cam, which almost always idled like a stocker :)

    Larger bore

    bottom line is that if the cylinder doesn't stay round you are going to make less power no matter what the engine size is. I would imagine bore distortion could occur in an unfilled block with as little as .060" overbore, especially if the fastener torque values are high enough. As...
