    Well there goes my chances of 9s this year

    Hahaha yeah it sure does… and it was definitely a bad end to the year for us duramax guys in pa…. Assuming those 2 engines you have are from around here.

    Well there goes my chances of 9s this year

    i actually talked to the sales department at wagler a few times I’m still waiting on a quote he said probably won’t be till next week… I got a call today saying the crank is all good to go.

    Lol I guess I would sell them just some expensive paper weights at this point unless I could build a v6…

    Well there goes my chances of 9s this year

    It was just shy of 2grand for 4…. and I’m not so sure I want to run 6 old design rods on a new motor… what if it was the rod that broke and not the piston ya know?

    Well there goes my chances of 9s this year

    Well I finally talked to someone at carrillo. They have changed the design since and they could custom make me new ones (4 minimum). Looks like I’m buying new rods.

    Well there goes my chances of 9s this year

    I’m not sure on which ones I have they all have a faint hand engraved number on them but those are the only numbers I can find.. I’ll have to look again and see if any of the numbers match the part numbers on the website…. And like you said I’ll probably just end up taking them to a machine shop...

    Well there goes my chances of 9s this year

    Seems about impossible to get a hold of anyone at Carrillo after e mails and countless phone calls I still can’t reach anyone. And I think I’m definitely going forged. I sent the crank to shaftech in findlay Ohio to get checked out not too far from wagler. I might just send it to them have them...

    Well there goes my chances of 9s this year

    So I’m going to start getting my parts list together… I pulled 6 perfectly good Carrillo rods out I was thinking what your guys thoughts are on reusing those 6? Can I just order 2 or do they need to be ordered in a set? Should I even reuse them or go a different route?

    LBZ wire harness repair?

    I just looked at the prices of a used harness on eBay they really went up I just sold a used lbz harness a year or so ago for $300… I’m not sure about the glow plug connector but if you have a local junk yard go look at different gm vehicles I bet you can find the same connector for the coolant...

    Well there goes my chances of 9s this year

    Pulled the injectors today the one on the right was in the hole that let go.. I had blow by all over the valve cover o ring was gone and the end was loose if you look close you can see the body is swelled on it.
  15. Bbuchanan11

    Well there goes my chances of 9s this year

    So I happened to come across a free lbz block but it has already been bored 40 over and it looks like it sat for a long time.. I guessing it would need bored again. Is it worth/safe going any bigger or should I just junk it and find another one?

    What’s left of the rod
  17. Bbuchanan11

    Well there goes my chances of 9s this year

    Rod beside it took some damage
  18. Bbuchanan11

    Well there goes my chances of 9s this year

    Yeah I guess… I’m just hoping the crank is ok
  19. Bbuchanan11

    Well there goes my chances of 9s this year

    There is just about nothing left of the rod other then the cap and about an inch of the beam if that… I wouldn’t ever think I made enough power to break a corrillo rod.
  20. Bbuchanan11

    Well there goes my chances of 9s this year

    Started pulling the engine couldn’t turn it over the whole way to get the converter bolts so I was able to reach my hand in the hole and pulled this out
