Well this poor PSD ended life in a gruesome way. A little medieval drawn and tripled. Its Cale Thompson's who is Brian Thompson (BTS) son.

101lbs of boost = 3 piece motor - Page 2 - Powerstroke Nation

WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW!!
I think the cylinder pressures where a little high!

 

yeah, i saw the post in the 99-03 forum, that is crazy!! but i guess now is a good time to inspect for oil sludge in the motor......

 

There are much better pics in the thread I posted! its quite amazing!

 

yes, most definatly, it looks like a 25mm hit that motor.

was there any additional damage to the truck? i wonder if bts will cover the tranny damage....wasnt it a 2 year unlimited mile warrenty....

 

Just got done looking at them. And I posted this over there.


I'll be damn.......Someone finally broke a BTS tranny. Didn't see that one coming....


Man, what a ride that must have been. I don't think it was idling.

 

holy crapspackle

 

That really really sucks but its pretty cool. He is the only one in the world that can say I split a 7.3 in 3 pieces.....and then alot of little pieces tooooo!!!!!

 

I only saw the two photos... all I can say is OILY SHEET man! That's ugly.

 

101 lbs of boost. someone was setting them selves up for a hell of a fireworks show. and he got it too. cool pics tho.

 

Did I miss that in the linked story?

 

Holy Chit!
A 7.3 cutaway for the shop now.

Bill

 

That's exactly what i thought!
my god! was that with or without a girdle? that would be a good reason to buy a girdle.
but think of it this way, it wont be hard to get out those aftermarket rods he put in lol

 

I am sure it had a girdle. Even if he didn't it wouldn't have helped that. That engine ripped apart from the top down. The pistons pushed the block part from the looks of it.

 

Next time someone requests a parts breakdown of the engine we know what to send them ...

 

It broke the bellhousing in the pics. That's all I was refering to. LOL
