I new it was over! I will pull the motor apart when I get a chance and let you know what i find... She's locked solid so I doubt it will be too good!!

To any one else whos reading this, the engine is nearly a season old and has been tuned to the brink of exploding (145c/160c) since day one... Because the engine didnt cost me an arm and a leg, pushing it to its limits was always on the cards! I was surprised it didnt happen sooner!!! IMO these things are tough as nails and im sure treated with a tad of respect would last alot longer. Oh well looks like im keeping the LSP now as its going to have a brand new Go 7P fitted, with a Massive Stage 5 of course!!

Ill fill you in with the damage when I get a chance to have a look....
thats awesome ! let me know what happened ! woo hoo
