654/2000 Down but not out

[uncleben4rice]

Random Pics of Blown Motor. Newbs you gotta pay to play.
Sheet Metal intake going back on /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif. I cried when I saw those Crower Rods /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bawling.gif. I thought it was an eagle rod motor /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif.
Eagle rod motor going back in for sure. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif 500AWDHP with ease. Put your money in the heads kids. Matter of fact get a 2g head its cheaper. All my boys are running the 2g head with the evo3 intake? I wonder why? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

Fact.

That seems like the rumor part.

Don't forget folks this is carnage due to an oiling issue, see OP's thread on filter problem.

Trez, Eagle Rods are decent. Most guys run them up to 600Hp.

ouch man that is a rough liking motor after the oil problem. glad to see you got it all back together and what not. make sure you watch that oil gauge this time man.. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[uncleben4rice]

Im going to make sure I don't lose pressure again. 2 different precautionary measures will be taken. Oil lose cut off switch and some sort of filter brace.

654 Back on the Block. 28 PSI and sheet metal intake. Now I need to clean it up and tuck some wires. Bass Ackwards I know

 

[Tre3zy]

need moar boost as well then lets play again uncle ben!

 

[BadVr4]

that kind of damage will happen to any type of rod, crower, je, aluminum, etc if there is an oiling issue. crowers are superior rods to eagles, but if your not planning on going much over 500-600 hp eagles are a better choice due to price.
