AKIQPilot Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Wow. The cylinder head was completely gone and all the liners were pushed right out of the block. I hope no one was hurt by that cyl head that probably went 500' in the air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No the cylinder head was still on. What happens when those straight engines let go like that is they break the block right above the crank shaft which gives you 75% of the engine going out the hood. You can see the bottom of the bores at the end of the video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The crank, rods and pistons are still sitting in the chassis hooked to the transmission. That was some violent shit right there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The crank, rods and pistons are still sitting in the chassis hooked to the transmission. That was some violent shit right there. The irony is once these guys get up near 100 psi of boost they stumble into jet engine math. What they end up with is a weak jet engine for the amount of fuel and a fragile power turbine (ie the Pistons and block). They could just get an old turbine Allison off of a C130 and it would make that kind of power stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
