Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime

We took the truck to Red River in Shreveport and the first pass on the throttle stop I think it was in the 10.50's at 149 . I made a few passes on the stop and decided it was time to see what it would do . Wide open it would pick the front up about a foot and before the tire could make one revolution it would shake like hell and just blow the tires off . Man I thought stuff was gonna start falling off (it would literaly rattle your teeth). I tried about six or eight times but it just wasnt going to stay hooked . I babied it to a 9.02 @ 149 . Now for the bad news ......All that shaking took its toll ! The last pass I tried to make the violent shake caused the Melling oil pump to break off and fall in the pan . My accusump saved the mains but it slung all the oil out of the rods and got the new crank so hot it bent it 10 thousands. So much for a std crankshaft .
