the 6 needs a CAGE.. and other CRAP

[Fake_Snake]

My result and best was :
60' 1.703
1/8 7.379
MPH 96.13
1/4 11.448
MPH 121.02

Heres the bad news:
Motor has a ticking sound it the run in sync with the rpms as it seems almost as it did when i blew the first motor.. And bringing back flash back from monday faithful afternoon. The cars driving situitaion is fine IDLE : FINE
Accerlation: FINE
WOT: FINE
Cruise: FINE
you just will here this ticking from the motor 3 different ways inside

1.In the cab no radio no a/c windows rolled up is the loudest and most promient way.

2.Under the car you here the ticking

3.From the above you gotta listen good.

This is not my 60lb injector ticking sound it drowns those out..

My options so far are to morning Pull Plugs and check reinstall.

Pull valve covers and look for anything abnormal ( this was suggested but I have no clue what to look for)

but on the plus side he beat me at the track today haha. i missed a shift on both races when we raced so i have no idea how fast or close i would have been (ran 12.6 and 12.5 with the missed shifts)

i ran 11.669 (2 of em) the rest of the day along with a 11.7

i msut say PMP does EXCELLENT work!!!!!!!!

Damn nice times, sorry to hear about your concerns. The post kept reminding me of F.I.N.E. by Aerosmith though...

Sticky valve?

 

[Fake_Snake]

[Fake_Snake]

plugs 4,5,6 are fine so far hears a video .. give it till the first min when the car idles down... and you hear as is when the cam goes under the car

guys the v6 took a shit last night. Joey was on his way home and the car died in mississippi. The noise we were hearing is extremely loud now. he heard a BOOM and they car shuddered and died, but surprisingly no smoke and he didnt see any oil on the ground. but the noise now overpowers the exhaust. the car most of the time will not start, but on the rare occasion it does it dies within seconds.

Its at a ford dealership now until he can get it towed away, after he gets home.

Oh Crap that Sucks,
Sorry to hear this Joey, man we lost a few motors in the last few weeks.
wow just 3 or 4 hours more and he would have made it, I hope he gets home ok,

 

[94tbird]

heres a video that took the life of the motor.

he beat me fair and square even though i missed a shift on that run, ive never run 11.44 before
