Met up this afternoon with some V-8 guys. We were going across the Howard Franklin and this Red Enzo Ferrari goes blowing past us. I miss shifted into second instead of 4th. After that at about 120 mph i lost all oil pressure in 4th gear. Sounds like i broke the oil pump gear but not sure yet. I have a prodrive gear. It's not supposed to break. Definately making some grinding metal noises. I had to wait 2 hours to get towed off the hump of the Bridge. Time to rebuild. i got 500 miles out of that motor. Since i'm building it again i will tell my #'s. That motor made 500whp@21lbs with 350 ftlbs torque. Dont be surprised if its more when i replace all the damage in a few months. Red Enzo Ferrari owns me. At least i went out in style.

 

Good luck with everything.

It's a shame that 90% of motors die due to driver error :-/

 

well it was fun across the bridge while it lasted. sorry to hear about that. i was wondering where you went

good luck with it

 

damnit RON what the fuck..........here we go again. let me know if you need a hand getting it all out and disassembled

 

sorry to hear that.

 

Like a true racer to just say fuck it, and look for more ponies in the rebuild.
