Stroker Failure

sorry to see your piston get detonated to death like that. i hope MS and a good tune / some dyno time will keep that from happening again. i ate up one of my bmw engines due to some det. slowly burnt thru a piston with a semi clogged injector under boost :( car ran fine till it just blew oil out of every port it could.

curious tho. what kind of numbers do Stokers put down over stock? i had decided not to build my 4.0 because of the side drafting head design. non the less these engines take a great deal of abuse before they fail quit. cant hate on that :)
 
At least I went out in a cloud of smoke. Oil in the intake and exhaust its a mess to clean up.
 
There's only so much I can do if everything checks out it goes back together. MS may not prevent certain problems but it makes me feel better having something specifically built for my engine. I never liked tweaking sensors and fuel pressure hoping it works right under all conditions.
 
Which controller are you using?

I'm planning on building a Megasquirt-III w/the MS3x expansion board for my next project...fully sequential ignition & fuel delivery. Should be a fun time.
 
MegaSquirt II on MS2/Extra firmware and possibly linking a GPIO board running MegaShift for the transmission. The board is already built and I did most of my research before MegaSquirt III came out so I don't know as much about it. This is all in the future I'll make a detailed post when it's time. Right now my focus it getting the engine back together.
