Default Re: Woodfin's SS GT/TB construction series

Thanks,

The thing is, I have been drag racing for 50 years and overall I have not experienced much breakage. Mostly I have built conservative packages that do not push the limits. Yet, when spinning an engine 8600 RPM plus the factor increases to greater chances of a failure.

The Super 10 engine was built with the best parts within the rules allowed, everything was triple checked, however, stuff happens.

This happening will hinder my schedule for a while but I'll be back.

Once I tear down and inspect the damage, depending on what it needs, I may change engine combinations. Am considering some 350 CI combo.
