We wont go over what happened to my engine...but now I am trying to figure out what caused the grief.
Here are the details. I THOUGHT I had all Ts crossed and I's dottted.
New caspers engine harness
New caspers injector hot wire harness
New XFI
New injectors
New TA race headers
Hyetech ported intake
Champion heads, irons
Accufab 70mm TB
Last weekend I had a bout of detonation that took it's toll on the rotating assy. I tore it all down sent it off to Nick.
This week I had a chance today to look at the heads. As I am cleaning them up, inspecting them I see that ALL 3 exhaust valves are hot. There were NO vacuum leaks. I know this happened immediately. It become apparent how hot these cylinders were when I took the headers off and saw the blue temp range on the flanges. The headers were on the car 160 miles, total. The head gaskets were in perfect condition upon removal. Something is restricting flow on ALL three ports, and Ill be f'd If I know how in the world this can happen. One set of pictures shows the drivers bank, you can clearly distinguish the pass side. Thoughts?
