I'll have my new motor anytime now and i finally tore into the old one to rob the head studs. While I was in there, this is what I found.

Is this becoming more common place now because these modified trucks are showing age or is it the introduction of the dual fuelers (or both)?

HOLY SH*T!!!! That's gonna leave a mark.

I took a look at his sig and I'd say that between the dual fuelers, the Aurora turbo, lift pumps, hot tune, etc, etc that the duel fuelers where only part of the problem. Stock rods apparently don't like 600+ HP and who knows how much over 1000TQ that LB7 was putting out.

Hey Bogger - I think that your piston landed somewhere in CT - I think I saw it lying on the side of the road the other day.
