Made it to 5K RPM on the first pull...

Made TREMENDOUS power... Till (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif)

I have never had torque scale readings that high on the dyno before! Temps looked good too..

During the 5K RPM power pull I saw the torque scale drop and shut her down to hear a nasty screech and thats all she wrote...

To make a long story short its all apart on the bench and the parts are still warm.... Issue found and being resolved with no major damage- Just a huge loss of time.

Its just one of the things you learn from wild and craziness....

It'll be back on the dyno Monday at latest.
