So running pig rich caused that bend rod on #5? i thought running lean is what bent rods?
Anywhoo, gl on the rebuild. And the kl looks cute beside the 460. Like the 460 and the bp had sex, and it made a kl.

Not just pig rich, stuckopeninjector rich. Hard to get a cylinder fulla liquid to complete compression and get the piston all the way uptravel ya know.
That KL *is* cute ain't it. It looks like it'd fit just fine pointed the right direction in something like a Miata. It even looks like you could have a pair o' smallish turbos off each side and make it even more cute.

Makes me wonder if anyone else 'sides me had similar thoughts after seeing "Cars"? Like "Golly I hope Lightning McQueen and the 911 get together and get BUSY cuz I wanna see what the kid ends up being, hee hee hee!Last edited by jay; 02-04-2011, 10:52 AM.'90 AWD Protege, full GTR drivetrain swap, ~320 whp daily driver, RIP, and
'90 AWD Protege, yet another GTR swap, Open class rallycar with a Toyota GT4 gearbox swap, thus crossing the line between hobby and mental illness. And a Brabus E55 K8, removing all doubt.
