The DHRA Indy Nationals kicked ass...and I got shot for a full feature in Diesel World magazine.....then I windowed the block on the way home.
No idea why yet....but it's not fun to actually see a chunk of rod bouncing down the highway next to you....I did find it for a souvinere though. LOL

Just when you climb up life has a way of smacking you back down.
Racing is only the means to find out what breaks......

My guess is 3 months or more...as I understand it that's about how far in advance they work issues.

I didn't run...we (CompD) ran the show-n-shine on Saturday so I was busy with that all day then I left early on Sunday because of my tothache....I actually had an emergency root canal on Monday when I got home it was so bad. I killed the truck about an hour after the root canal....talk about adding insult to injury. LOL

I think you should take it to a dealer and see if they will cover it under warranty. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif

It'll be a couple of months probably...I'm out of town on a project...gonna take the truck back to Texas in a week or so and start collecting parts.
I've got an e-mail in top Elite about just building me a whole motor so I may go that route.

That's awful! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif I hope you get it figured out and I hope you put a monster 6.0 back in thier. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif


Now, I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed by any stretch but I gotta wonder just how many miles these hotrodded motors will take? Seems to me you got a good bit of miles for as much HP as you were makin. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif



Good Luck!
