Finally got some nice weather and was able to get to the track. Ran a PB of [email protected]. Third run out, oil pressure light came on, car won’t start. Waiting on my tow home. That’s the way it goes when you gamble I guess. FML.
15-17 short block is cheap.. like $2k or less.
Get er done.
Dang bro. Talk about being on top of the world and then that happens. Said a little prayer for ya.
I didn’t log anything. When I got to the end of the track as I was slowing down I saw the oil pressure light come on. I pushed the clutch in and the car died immediately. I coasted around the turn and parked it. I didn’t hear anything loud, I see no oil anywhere. I’ll have to rip it apart to figure out what happened.137 is up there man!! Did you datalog the runs? knock or no?
How much poost were you running?
I’ve checked that site a few times. I also can get the 15 short block for $2k (that’s is with the core charge included already). I haven’t decided which route is feasible yet though. Once I get the engine out of the car, I’ll figure out the extent of the damage and go from there. Either way, once it’s out, I’m not putting the stock one back in if it’s still in working order, which I doubt. I’m either putting in forged internals or going with a new short block.Don Wood Ford Racing has the gen1 coyote long block with the 15 heads and internals for 6600

No 2-step. No limiter issues either. I revved to about 7,200 and put it in 5th after I crossed the line, I let it slow down and then saw the oil pressure light. That’s when I pushed the clutch in and the car died.Gruca,
Do you have a two-step? Did you have any rev limiter issues that run?
Pretty sure I did. As far as I can tell, no parts fling out of the block. It just seized, which is a good sign of oil starvation. The plan is to start pulling the engine tonight.Damn good run, she was rolling! Sorry about the oil light, you think you broke the gears?
