That's why I'm going D series. If you blow it up you can always pick up another with low mileage for cheap cheap cheap :-D

Dont do **** you shouldnt be doing, its people like you that give america 1 of the lowest worker productivity levels in the world

 

40k miles !? Looks like it served its purpose v.well considering you're on the hack. U should be a happy man

 

^ you sir are an *******, fyi i work 70-80 hours a week and bust my *** for what i have, and i couldnt elaborate because we were talking about business, not because im not allowed on the computer, thank you very much

and yes i cant complain because i beat the hell out of that motor and it was just a matter of time before it happened, i picked up a low mileage long block for $250 so im happy.

 

damn, 40k in one year? you definitely drove that motor hard and long, and i bet it was damn worth it. so for the average person that woud be a life span of like 3-4 yrs!

I agree with this^^^. I've had mine for 2years boosted at 10psi daily with the exact same set-up. I always thought I drove mine pretty hard, maybe you just had bad luck.

 

well ive had it for 8 months im not sure how long the motor has actually been boosted, the guy i bought it from had the kit made, but it was slow, i think he had put about 20,000 boosted miles on it over 6-8 months so i guess you could say
1 1/2 yrs. at any rate it still held up to quite a beating, oh i also drove it for a few months with the timing off. when i fixed the timing quarter mile times dropped from 14.8-9 to 14.1-2

 

yeah thats a sign of good tuning I hope I get even beter set-up if im boostin on stock internals on my h22a

 

so what finally gave?

Yea.. what was it that gave up?? How many miles did the motor have?

 

60000 on the motor,#1 rod started knocking and put a hole in the back of the block

 

i picked up another y8 and pulled my motor out, now i just have to tap the oil pan and swap over the flwywheel, crank pulley, clutch and tranny. Damn that crank pulley is a biotch
