LLY: Finally something gave up

[05chevy]

After 2 years of straight abuse on complete stock motor. I believe a head gasket finally let go. Will put studs and new gaskets and see how long the rods will last.

Wow pushing it pretty good judging from your times.Right after your new gaskets and before you install the glow plugs how about a compression test to let us know how its doing?

 

[05chevy]

I plan on it hopefully it will stay together till winter. I have a short block I guess I better start putting together.

I was guessing he was light also bacuase my truck is a heavy weight with the goose neck still in it full interior tailgate tools and chains it the back end when i ran.Things will be different when i go back for sure.

wow 685hp on a stock motor is awesome especially for that amount of time!:thumb:

 

[Kappa9012]

ah ok that weight makes sense. well hopefully it's not a huge amount of damage. Good luck on the rebuild.

 

[WVRigrat05]

Impressive. Mine didn;t make it 2 months with a power pup with less than 40k. But it did make it another 60k blown.

 

[dirty_max]

wow that dont look so good. also impressed that it lasted that long at that power level

 

[hondarider552]

Mind as well check the protrusion while the heads are off. Sorry to hear Robert!

 

[2005LLY]

This gives me hope!

 

[paint94979]

How many miles were on the engine? I made 701hp and also ran 115mph but my truck is over 6700lbs... At least it was a HG and not something else

 

[DBUSHLB7]

Impressive times for sure! Should be a monster if you build er up:thumb:

 

[Balindir]

Maybe my head gasket will have a chance then! Bout to put an s475 on my lly, but this gives me hope!

73k I believe I'm going to just bit the bullet and build the damn thing. Why waste the money when it will most likely bend a rod shortly after I put the new gaskets on.
