When will they go?
 
7-8?
9-10?
10+

decided to blow my head gaskets... got my studs and my MLS gaskets itchin to be installed.

put my boost controller on yesterday... turned her to the solid position...

boost gauge went past 10 so i let off, really pinned me in the seat thou.

turned her down a tad, havent got on it yet, hope its around 8. 8)

it'd be nice if they held together at 8lbs

pretty common on 5.0 HO motors. the stock headbolts are weak, and ive already retorqued mine 2x. and it has OEM replacement gaskets in it

also they dont have the best head bolt placement

ya i tried once at torquefreaks and blew a hole in one of my couplers first pull... story of my life.

it made 252horse at 3500rpms 5.5psi 310tq at same rpm

well it held a couple 3 second 10lb pulls... but its pretty lame, my converter slips at 10lbs

so i stopped on the side of the road and fiddled with the boost controller and turned it tdown to about 7, i cruised for a while to let the trans cool down

then i molested a stock wrx wagon. then about 20 miles later i sexually assaulted a s10 with a small block in it.

bov sounds sick at 10lbs... movin a bit of air.

i think it survived, im going to check the dipstick for water :1

Re: When will they go?
 
never overheated, and the dipstick looks like oil

i guess it survived day 1

considering your engine management consists of a FMU... lol, they will blow pretty quick. You have never put a wideband on that thing, I bet it runs pretty lean, especially with that great 40mpg ---- you say it gets, haha

Re: When will they go?

Don't be racist against dumb ass gooks that bang 12 year olds. HMT was not founded upon values supporting this, so please watch what you say.

Actually i can pretty securely say that HMT has the history of being racist/ignorant/prejudice. It's just that only people who take it seriosuly and get their ----- out of alignment and bitch and moan :X.

i say @least 2 weeks, when you want stuff to break it takes longer

Re: When will they go?
 
man this ------ sucks

the clutches in my trans are TOAST. they didnt like the few 10psi pulls i made.

it slips like peter griffin tryin to catch a greased up deaf guy.

------' gay. need to get that 5 spd in there.

i really cant get on it anymore unless i want to make the trans useless :/
