How do I post that photo of mj eating pop corn!!! Fml these kill me!!! Dropped 15gs on a turbo kit doesn't know what an engine block is.

He should join the Mustang forum I hear they know there chit. Oh crap turning left...:stirthepot:

I'm no expert, but, I think it's the big "blocky" thing that holds things inside and has things bolted onto it.

No silly it's the metal behind the tires

OK, so after the wonderful people here helping me understand what a block is and not making fun of me. I decided to read up on short block and long block.

So, if I was to destroy my stock block after being boosted, I could buy like a short block package for example from Z1 and swap that in and I would be good to go again?

SOHO could also hook you up with an engine as well! I'm waiting on my transmission to fail before I go to Level 10 for a bulletproof one and then once I have a real job, I plan to go to SOHO or Z1 for a 4.0-4.2 block :D

There is not a solid way to predict what will be taken out when an engine lets go. In many cases, you will need to replace the entire engine. Even if you just break a rod, the carnage that ensues will often destroy the top half of the engine as well.

:iagree:
Have taken too many motors apart to see that everything was damaged. Rare to see one that didn't damage the heads. Took one apart that had bits and pieces in the inlet manifold. :rofl2:

While testing our new twin fuel pump, we jumped the stock engine HP record by 50hp. :tiphat: Tuning on our test subject is via SpecialtyZ. :driving:

This was actually a month ago now that I think about it. I need to make some threads one of these days.

If the pic is hard to read, that there reads 818whp and 622lb-ft, Dynojet STD. 18.5psi peak boost. 4th gear pull.

Big single Turbo or twin's? Good job keeping torque somewhat at bay!

Twin Garrett GT3076R Gen I with Tial Turbine housings, cant remember which housing off the top of my head.

That look's like those $24,950.00 manifolds... ;)

Nice work phunk! :tup:

It appears that mounting the turbos away from the heads a bit, can keep the torque down & not affect HP.
I've noticed some of the other exhaust manifolds (that hold the snails up closer to the engine) seem to put more torque down.....must be the extra heat or use of smaller,quicker spooling turbo's.
Than again-it could all be in the hand's of the Tuner.

Controlling that boost :)
