MRX Short block aux fuel

[MRX330]

I'd bet u fried a piston

How so?

With it being a Mountune short block that's got forged fun stuff ...my money is on head gasket!

Idk in all honesty just a little feeling even tho I know forged internals

The way it idled and spewed noxious fumes when the tech started it I have no clue.

If it does happen to be the head gasket failed then I'll eat my words lol I hope not tho then again I do hope it's not a melted piston

Worse case come back to SC and let Mitch go through it hahaha

So I’ll find out tomorrow when they pull the head. If it’s anything other than the head gasket the car goes on an auto carrier from Idaho to SC. This has been the best vacation everrrr!

So #1 cylinder has scoring. May have to get another Mountune short block. A reminder to everyone that when spending money for more power don’t overlook anything including the smallest parts.
