built turbo ls, what happened?

Like I said, i've seen stock sleeves handle up to 600hp.. makes me think he bored the block out too much and weakened the sleeves a lot.

it was bored out over .20 but i think what made it crack was the dam block guard that i put on..crack starts there and makes its way down

Block gaurds are known to warp the walls not crack them. My guess is you went lean and caused detonation, thus causing the sleeve to say goodbye

Sounds to me like you've had a shitty tune both times. Pistons don't just desenegrate themselves and sleeves don't crack without detonation

yea the parts are fine they all are reusable and im guessing it was the tune aswell because both builds together didnt even last a month..but i decided to just send my other block to laskey racing heard nothing but good news from them and already spoke with them and there customer service was great

Thanks man, should see low 12s if not high 11's next time at the track on 10psi, might raise it a little more just to be sure haha. Would've went higher yesterday but lap top started running out of battery plus we was hungry haha. I did rape a turbo LS last night that was on 10psi as well. Trying to get the vids uploaded from buddies facebook onto my youtube account. Leave some comments on my build thread, always like reading them
