Another rod is liberated to the open air. We have seen pictures like this before with a couple of ATI cars. Let me guess....no timing control?

So what's up? Tell us how this happened so others make sure not to do the same. Who cares about the name, just tell us what happened.

NOS as in the company NOS or as in nitrous oxide?

that sucks


thats why you dont do a/f tests with a 130shot. start small with a 35 shot and work your way up. could of been avoided.
