You can deduce correct timing without a knock sensor, or det cans. At 389 whp, lasting 2000+ miles with mulletboy laying the hammer down, I'd say it was tuned correctly. My $0.02 says something else went wrong. Fuel pump, vac leak to the FPR, etc.

Did you just fill up after this happened?
I've heard of some shady stuff about octane ratings and what gas stations sell for "premium" gas. My bro used to work at a local gas station in Minneapolis, and they would sell 89 octane under the 92 octane pump.

I think it's weird both Jordan and Josh's setups mysteriously cracked a bunch of sleeves, that doesnt happen everyday. Dan's motor is next...
