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

^ 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.

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.

Re: (Pengo)
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
