Turbone Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 And boosted to 14lbs. It still ran, but of course, no compression in that cylinder:rolleyes: Head and valve were not damaged amazingly. Dont know where the pieces went, probably out the exhaust port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazyhorse001 Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I learned this the hard way myself Turbone. You can run rich all day, but lean only once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 This was the last engine in my RX, before the CCR engine. This was after the purchase of a manual boost controller off Ebay. It was either no boost or full boost. And yes it was fun, for about a day. One good thing about it, my HG job from previously held up fine:rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbone Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 Suuuure, if I could find the pieces again:rolleyes: But they are long gone:burnout: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloyale Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Does the block look damageds at all? You could possibly reuse the block with a new set of pistons(high compresion?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmashedGlass Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 How is that engine from CCR working for you? Not that I've ever heard a single bad thing about them, I'm just a curious type and would like user opinions...they're less than an hour from me and I may lay on a rebuild from them.

Turbone Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 No damage to the block, otherwise I could not use it for a core return. CCR is great. The engines are great, the people are great (sometimes I wonder about Shawn:-p ) And Emily is great to work with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
