Blowing up a perfectly good engine on purpose really makes no sense to me. Definitely done just for publicity

Couldn't agree more and now I'm going to get stupid phone calls about for a month. Hell if guys are blowing them up stock with an H&S(I know of 4 trucks personally that broke pistons with the H&S on a stock truck) then what was the point of this other than publicity. Wish I had enough money to throw a perfectly good low mileage motor in the trash can just because.

Im still trying to comprehend how they grew so fast. Theyre popular with Cummins guys but seems they grew pretty fast. Then again their shop looks very empty.

The biggest thing I see why people like them is that my buddy has a 6.4 Ford, he pay 900 bucks for a Mini Max and ran it for a year, then bought MCC(H&S's custom tuning software) for a extra 150 bucks. Now like may other power hunger people, I have to get rid of the tuner and get EFI live, instead of just paying a unlock code and loading a tune I can make.

They are not open to the public and do not deal direct with the customer. 98% of their stuff is done through dealers. Only thing you'll see in their shop is company/personal vehicles for r&d purposes.

And it worked.

I agree that's what it was. But I also think if somebody wanted to blow up their Bugatti Veyron just because, then have at it. It's not my money.

I realize that, just meant the amount of tools and equipment seem minimal.

Exactly they wanted to see how far it could go and its their truck and their money have at it, what concern is it of anyones if they wanna waste money? which really isn't much new block won't cost much and they'll just build it better anyway.... i mean how many of us have pushed the envelope and busted a block?

From the way it sounds they are going to trash 3 perfectly good motors. I guess the folks over there have a lot more money than sense. :confused:

They spent $30kish in blown up engines, and have the entire diesel world talking about their product. My guess is they will make up the cost in sales by the end of next week

only thing I can think of is whomever went into it initially already had money to burn.
