966HP, 875 Torque...all motor, single four barrel, cast intake, then.....

It Broke # 3 rod on the seventh pull and destroyed the block

So I guess I won't make the Supra deal

DAYYYYYMMMM That was an expensive dyno day

We where turninig it 7500 on the dyno, shifting at 7000 in the car, but get this, it made like 958 to 965 all the way from 6300 to 7500 the hp was flat for a little over 1000 rpms....

 

[Anthony - 98 GTS]

Damn - that sucks.....

 

[TRDSupra]

958 it's a LOT of HP for "only" 6300 RPM's all motor! :nod: :bowdown: What's the displacement of this bad boy? Is it a Chrysler block? Or are talking an aftermarket block such as a Donovan?

Very, very impressive, and once again sorry to hear about the rod failure, serious bummer

588 cubic inch, Chrysler megablock 1.64 hp per cubic inch,

er,,,it was,anyway :doh:

 

[silvergts1998]

So why did the rod break? What kind of rod was it? Man that is one hell of a engine!

 

[BLEBYU]

aluminum, Bill Miller. Hard to say if it was a rod failure, or it jerked the bottom of the piston out, then the rod broke from slinging around. The big end of the rod is still bolted to the crank and spins free, so it was not a bearing issue

 

[Nole]

Sorry to hear that.

 

[TRDSupra]

VERY impressive! :thumb: Hope you get another motor built up soon! :nod:

You can get that block fixed if that is the only damage done to it is what I can see. :nod:

Yeah but how many MPG?

The lower portion looks like a reletively easy fix, however, whatever created the hole above would have had to go through the cylinderwall first. :ugh:
It's sleave time. :nod:

All so true. I have seen tons worse than that fixed.

Cast iron blocks ?

 

[Heffner Performance]

I think that some of you are thinking that this is an aluminum block. You can't repair a cast iron block that has been damaged that badly. Sorry to hear about your mishap. When there is a catastrophic failure like this it's usually hard to say what caused it. Maybe a wrist pin locked up?

 

[J DAWG]

Mike, hope all gets repaired soon. Look forward to seeing the car reach its full potential at the track.

Since there is nothing but bench racing in our immediate future, what do you think the car will run with juice (you are planning to spray it, right)?

 

[houstonT]

DAMN, sorry to hear that... I hope there is still some way to get the car done for the V-10 Challenge.
