Don't you just hate after sex comparisonsLOL
Hey at least Im done, and if shes mad she can go home, right?:woott:
Here's one thing I don't know. How much HP it would take to break the vacuum generated by extracting your cranium from your rectum.
:spit:

Good read. Pat if you are ever in Hawaii over the next 3 yrs there will be a beer waiting for you.
If you are talking about the Cole v Wade CD thread, it's like watching your IRS auditor in a fist-fight with your ex-wife.
Not sure who to root for, just hope they throw a lot of punches.
Nobody's misinterpreting anything......you come across as a knowitall braggart dickhead because that's what you are. .
Lol, :spit: I was wondering what your take on the above subject was after reading the comp D LLY thread
Annoyed!
Wish more people would post about there carnage!
If your not breaking stuff,You aint making enough HP lol or atleast you aint reporting it
I appreciate people that have done this for me,And in return will do it for others.

I had a LBZ block with SoCal billet mains, ran two seasons pulling with cut and coated LB7 pistons... I cracked two at the end of last season, when I tore it down number 2 main was pretty bad, not flaking yet, but pretty beat out, also number 3 main was starting to look pretty rough. I was cutting the oil filter open and hadn't seen any bearing material, but had about 8 hooks on the oil and filter when it happened.
I sent the LBZ crank to SoCal and it failed the mag test, had a hairline crack between #1 main journal and #1 rod journal...
Had to get a different crank, and I am having it internally balanced... I will post pics of tear down and post results of how it works following this season.

My "hard lessons learned", each of these sent us home at an event:
Bent stock rods.
Head gasket leak (head stud published spec wrong)
Cracked injector.
Stuck valves, bent pushrods.
Piston erosion
Piston seizure
Piston ring land collapse
Excessive blowby
Injection pump blew up
Transfer case explosion
Water pump spun on shaft
Spun main bearing
Belt jump from warped harmonic balancer
Riser pipes failure
That's 14 events where I went home with a hurt truck. I probably forgot a couple, dunno. But for every event we limped home, there were far more sucessful thrashings. Nearly all these items are "fixed" now, or so I hope, except piston erosion.
What's missing from my dance card is a broken crank (guess I'm overdue), and a trans failure.

Clevite race series .0001" extra clearance main bearings, clearance was .0037-.0040" across the mains...
thanks, I think that's about the first motor that I've heard of that has had a crank problem even with extra clearance in the mains
