The new BB hasn’t made it to a post race inspection it’s toast before there. I don’t know the details on each failure. I’ve been told bearings, valves, main caps. I forget the last one.
When it was the ls3 that would go to redline as it’s a sealed motor.
Yes catastrophic failures dropped valves, spun bearings and more. Also this isn’t just one time we are on 4 DNF in a row due to motors I believe.
Correct redline is 8200 and it gets there. Driver is not crazy hard on equipment this is a privateer in TT so replacing motors is not in his racing...
Cooling system, oil pump (dry sump) and coolers are all done properly. With correct size lines and locations. This chassis when it was a 6100 truck and a ls3 won races. Now it’s DNF to motor failures
How long should a 1000+ hp big block in a TT last? How many miles, races, seasons?
This is all assuming that this is a high hp race motor that is meticulously maintained with complete fluid flushed and top end inspections.
These motors are typically 60k or more so how long would you expect...
If speed wants to be a mass producer then they need to do so. Hire the right people and stop being a garage shop.
In regards to other engines. That’s for the customer to bring to speed again we’re talking 10-30 cars a year here in that business model
Rear diffs saw on Facebook from owners...
No speed key reviews huh?
I saw where you need to add top end lube, change spark plugs and drain fuel if you plan to have it sit.
What a pain in the ass?
Also I am surprised no speeds in Vegas to Reno as the sxs field was stacked!!!
Also saw where guys are running diff coolers and still...
