How many engines have you built? How many pistons have you seen melted?
I can attest that mike has probably built 15 engines in the last 2 years alone. Used to build and race blown alcohol, worked as an assembler at a machine shop, has a pair of blown 540 950hp engines in his cat he built that runs a buck and a quarter, and 1200hp whippled 598's he runs in his fountain at the moment. And he has seen his share of smoked pistons . Not trying to defend him, just stating facts. He isn't new to this stuff. You walk in his shop and you'll find every engine tool you can think of, big blowers , rods, heads, cranks, and all kinds of cool stuff to play with sitting on shelves. He's built everything from a 389 Pontiac resto engine, to a basic 502 build, to huge power blown alky stuff. He's just a hobbyist like the rest of us with a love of horsepower . Just sayin.

+1,, i have been their as well and all above is true..also i will be the first to admit that i have blown up a ton of stuff with the help of nos..that was before we had the data logger and all the egt's and o2 sensors in each tube of the header and i will still crush or peel a ring land off a piston even with a 7k data logger..

Yes - He may be but HE doesn't need to be an A S S HOLE. He doesn't have a clue what MY capabilities are. He just likes to name call. I don't know why he has a thing about spelling - I don't care - I never have and have never called him out on it.

So YOU have a problem with reading too.

Maybe YOU should reread post #46 - that is where YOU started calling ME names. I don't give a dam about your inability to spell.

Read it again - after post #46 you just started calling me names. I don't know what your problem is with me - You don't know me or what I am capable of doing.

i know that you are confused about many facets of engine operation,and that you have an attitude,but i dont give a chit about you.im not going to waste any more of my time attempting to teach you anything because it,s evident that you know everything.truth is you dont recognise detonation when it is as clear as a bell.im done with this,and you.carry on with your rant if you feel the need.
