Snapped the snout of the crankshaft off..

Too much power I suppose.

Car broke Saturday at 12:30 AM.. HPP came with their rig and full trailer, loaded it up.. motor was out yesterday and is off to houston soon. Looks like it will be a fast turn around.

When she comes back I'm not settling for any less than 900 rwhp.. so.. get your shit together guys. :beer:

Well............You're not the first blower car to break a HPP/Houston Performance crank. Number 3 that I know of.
Did it break where the other ones broke?:shrug:........in the oil pump area?

I hope that luck doesn't move to the turbo engines!

It's because you touch yourself at night.

Sorry to hear that! I really liked that little car. My first new Mustang was a 79 turbo notch.
"6 Million Dollar Man" that thing and bring it back!:rockon::rockon:

LOL yes, Houston Performance MADE the ****ing crank. In their crank-maker.

Kevin, do you want a cookie?

 

[LTHL VNM]

keep the motor in one piece and maybe you could come down and enjoy some racing in Houston for once in your cobra's life......

 

[04sleeper]

Kevin, do you want a cookie?

[MachsFastr]

This is alarming! :rollseyes

I think those cats must be making money left and right on you poor Texans.

Jeremy you sure have a lot of problems with houston performance engines have you ever thought about going another route or are they do the repair under some sort of warranty agreement?

 

[blownaltered]

Was it the stock block?
How long did you run at the power level in your sig?

no its not a stock block, its an aluminum block with a billett crank and rod stroker motor.
Sucks that happened Jeremy, hope it gets back up and running.

 

[blownaltered]

Sorry to hear it bro, that totally sucks...:nonono:

Good luck with the new motor and 900 rw!

:lol: :nono:

 

[foofinator]

Hmmm 920+ crank horsepower all on the snout..

Somehow I doubt it's the motor builder.

They simply do not make a crank strong enough, so I'm going another route. Nor do they make a cage support.

Side loading combined with harmonic vibrations at those levels.. add slicks.. ka-****ing-boom.

She's gonna be the same motor, just with a new crank.

 

[04sleeper]

Looks like Twin 61's in your future?
