    Well She blew

    Yep driving home after some Christmas Party. Past a guy @ about 90 and thought I saw a little too much smoke. Down the road another couple mile and some clown in a suburban gave me a run. Hammered her up to 120 and she blew. Heard a tink and tons of smoke all over the place. Smells of oil and a lot of wetness on the shoulder. Don't have the heart to look under the hood.

    That 8# has been on there for 35K. Gave me a lot of good times. Time to move on and build her better than before.

    Guess I won't be doing the Christmas Party @ 2 tones Office on Sunday. If you guys want we can have a tear down party. Oooooooooohhhh raaaaaaa....


    Merry Christmas All.

    91 octane crap gas and high speed blasts. Not good.

    Sorry for your loss.
    Makes my stomach churn.

    At least its an excuse to get a built lower!
    Little consolation I know. You'll be happier when you get it running again. Invest in a alchy kit. Built motors can go boom under detonation too.

    Are you serious money??? Maybe the band of crappers can have a g2g to tear your money pit down since you do not have the stomach to open the hood. Sorry to hear about the loss money, now the name "02moneypit" will really apply to your truck even more.

    Looking good. That guy has an almost new '04 L motor complete.

    I lined up a truck to pick it up just need a picker now.

    Looks like it could happen tomorrow.

    The Christmas Party has been moved to my driveway.

    Hey Josh- I was running 14lbs. The tune was pretty rich and I had just converted all my intake back to stock so I am guessing it was running even richer. The weather temp at the time was about 55-60 so I don't think it was much of a factor. I am guessing I had crap gas and she was just at the end of a tough life. Truck has 55K on it right now.
