For you guys that went to OSW last week and saw my friends Lightning puke white smoke, that was not a head gasket. He pulled the heads off and a piston was gone. Not there. GONE!!
It was in the oil pan with half of the connecting rod! HOLY CRAP! It punched a hole in the block, beat the hell out of the Twisted Wedge head on that side, bent the intake valve, wiped out the roller lifter and cam lobe. To sum it up, that engine is TOTALLED! That sucks. He just got the engine back together about 8 weeks ago.
I think he might do a 410ci Windsor like in Eds truck. (the other white Lightning) He would be deep in the 11s if he does. I feel bad for him, but, thats racing.
Moral of the story: KEEP IT OFF THE REV LIMITER WITH A BLOWER!! Later guys, Rod K.
