bunny13 is an unknown quantity at this point
Yes, the motor blew at 575 due to rod failure. Because they were pushing the motor to its absolute limits with stock internals. But let's say that they backed the boost off and ran it at 450whp. Are you still going to tell me that you know for a fact that the motor was going to blow up? It's easy to dismiss these results when one is such a skeptic. It's kind of the dyno results versus your word.

I don't recall what became of Jeff Taylor's engine in the grand scheme of things, but I do recall him saying at one point he had clocked over 2000 hard miles on that setup and it was still running strong.
