Too much NOS on the Dyno - BOOM
Anyone interested in some pics of a shattered turbo, engine oil fire, 900+ NOS dyno run..... see last couple of pages here...

Truck belonged to member 'HT3500'.
Was spectacular, to say the least!
Nobody hurt, but a souped up Monte Carlo parked next to the dyno caught one of the turbo blades in the right rear!

p.s. I think it was the Camaro's rear quarter that got holed.
After the dry chemical cloud subsided, I was checking in the cab for shrapnel - at least one piece of the turbine came through the firewall and busted out the plastic heater box onto the mat.

It's what I call a MadMax nitrous stage - get some RPMs, crack the bottle valve in the bed and pucker up! 
Don't remember if Bobby had bottle duty on that run... but he did jump back in to kill the valve right before the fireball from the stacks.
p.s. Jets are for sissies!

Now wait a minute, I had a button in the truck to actuate the nitrous. Oh yah I don't think I had too much nos, just not enough turbo..
oh and we had a leak on one of the lines, thats why we kept turning off the bottles...

... details, details.... You're still the Hero for giving it up on the dyno!
Between your gray truck's insane burnout and your red one go BOOM... that's more fun than a human being should be allowed to have.
Thanks again Buck for helping to put the event together!

now I feel a little better about mine blowing up 3 day's after I put in a new HG. It had so much alumm stuck on the intake and exhaust valves it would not run becose there was no compression with all the alumm holding the valves open. Had to pull it all back apart and redo the valves and everything. The pice of shaft and the nut made a 180 turn and were found in the air fillter. I hope he dosent have to pull the head. Thats the price we all pay to play some just more than others. I lost a HX-35 not a SB. But now I have a bigger turbo and he prob will to. At least nobody came close to death when mine came apart.
