[QUOTE="Jam421, post: 16473888, member: 110985"] MulhollandMan...so sorry Bud. If the engine was damaged prior to your ownership that might explain. Or perhaps it was the bolt ons which many of run very similar set ups as you. Unfortunately these bad experiences do lead to education. If you swap out the block I'd be extremely curious what caused the problem in your old engine. Hopefully, you can learn that at an affordable cost. You never know the extent ( or lack thereof) of internal damage. Is it possible your block may still be good ? SteveWK I see you use quart of Torco in each tank that makes sense the CA octane. Is 91 octane pump gas alone okay for 17psi? I'm at 16.5psi on 93 octane. After first tank at one quart I uses 1/2 bottle of Torco with each table refill. But...with my FBO's I kept stock injectors and was told no need for BAP . Now you guys have me thinking. Either way...we feel for you Mulhollandman ! [/QUOTE]
