Well I think I finally did it

Went out this weekend for a little 1/8 mile action and had zero oil pressure at idle after the first run. The car is not making any noise and the pressure does come up if you rev it a bit, but I think I just caught it early. I will check the easy stuff first, but the motor will be coming out. As for the other posts about the strength of a stock block, well here is another statistic.

500 rwhp,
100hp nitrous shot
5 speed
6800 rpm shift points
3 years of street/strip service
200 passes (150 nitrous)
forged internals & main girdle
best time 6.75 @ 102 1/8 mile and 10.56 @ 129 1/4 mile

It will be interesting to check out the main caps for walk, the pistons for detonation and the block for craaaaaaaacks!

I'LL BE BACK......
