A guy from florida called me and wanted to buy my 355" LT1- he said his motor was "bad".. I didn't ask any questions, I just wanted to sell my motor.. anyway, we reached an agreement where I would do the swap @ my place.. Here is what I found:

www.teamprickracing.com/97ws6/

the optispark is destroyed, timing cover exploded, timing chain broke, crankshaft broken, at least 1 main cap is broken and that's just what I can see from the outside looking in..

The car has 40k miles and the only modifications are an airfoil and
cherry bomb mufflers..

Just bad luck I guess
I'll post more pics if I find anything else that looks cool.

 

alrighty then,thats some ugly stuff there.


cant wait to see more carnage pictures if you take any.

 

Nice. Yeah please take more pics

 

40k??? how many cans of snake oil in that motor?

 

Bet that made some noise coming apart. At least removing the balancer should be really simple.

Did you ever get a full pass on your twin turbo setup?
