haha yea i knew it was going to happen time this year but i was coming off such a good weekend 2 weeks ago i was hopeful that it would last the rest of the year with a best of 12.446 on the year for it but still not 100% sure it was all caused from the nitrous still pulling it apart will have it out this weekend to take it apart the rest of the way and see what kind of damage i did to it

Chevy, Dodge, or Ford? If its a Ford... send the heads to Lem and Charlie Evans (B.F. Evans Ford in Kentucky) for some of the meanest head work on BBF's known to man.

it is a chevy, my a/f mix was good just had it on a dyno a few days before and also have a wideband in the car to watch every run, the motor had been rebuilt from blowing it up a few years after we bought the car and the same cylinder blew this time around so we trashing the block and starting all over this time.
