Sorry to hear about your motor. Good excuse to rebuild!I saw oil spray from the rear valve cover...
Where did you see your oil spray come out of? Was it into your catch can?

My Aem setup.has an LED its green when the Meth sprays and it flashes when the tank is low. You can set it up with failsafe also. I have my car tuned so it doesn't factor in the water/ Meth.Just a quick question, if you run out of meth how do you know? If you knew you ran out of meth can you just stay out of boost and limp home?
Also, can't windshield washer fluid be used as a meth substitute?

Ken sorry to hear about your motor. You are running a high displacement S/C at about the 500 rwhp, right?
Yes I have a 2.9L Whipple and IC. The block has been sleeved and has low compression pistons. I was hoping I could get someone to listen to video and let me know if that sounds like a rod bearing or a valve tapping before I pull the motor apart.

See below for video it is only knocking when I give it gas. I do have a built and sleeved motor.

You can only hear this when I rev it up.

I have a question, what gear is everyone breaking their motors? 4th gear and up?
i saw the blue smoke in 2nd gear.
Funny, so do I... a lot less now that we replaced the PCV valve, and the timing cover just came off today for further investigation. Believe it was a crappy TB/HG job and hopefully the internals are all fine.
Unfortunately, you can write me up for 1.0.
I thought I had taken precautions on my Low-boost Autorotor CTSC just to prevent any problems.
- First of all, only going low-boost on car, autorotor CSTC
- Installed oil pan baffle for the oil
- Installed Zeitronix AFR to be able to monitor that (and regulary read out the logfiles)
- ATI damper to prevent pulley to detonate
- Recently, added thermo gasket between manifold and engine, recently added Walbro fuel pump and SOS wiring and boost- and IAT sensors.
Then, AFR was much too low. Just heard from the shop it's not my valves but leakage from two of my cylinders.
For now, engine will be taken out to see what is wrong detail :redface:
