Heres the deal. Late one night I let my friend drive (big mistake there , but whats done is done) I have my car running 16 psi, 550 cc injectors, manual boost controllers and walbro fuel pump along with a 2.5 inch catback exhaust, hks intake and some suspension work done.
Here is what happened. My other friend has a mustang and we were side by side on the highway doing about 60 mph, not racing or anything. My friend is driving messing around with him and my friend in his mustang guns it. So my friend takes off too, well my friend did something he I have never seen him do before. He was in 5th gear and dropped down, but instead of going into 4th He ####ed up and missed it and hit 2nd or something and I think he over revved the motor but Im not sure. Anyway 1/4 mile up the road the car just dies, no power or nothing it just cut off. The lights and electrical still worked and all but it wouldnt go nowhere. We pull over and try to start the car up, no go. It turning over but will not fire.
At this point Im thinking something is seriously screweed up. It was late and dark and my flashlights batteries were dead so Im waiting to check it out tomorrow morning.
I think, he blew a seal or something. I have blown motors before and it doesnt seem like that happened (At least I hope not...)
The car has 100,000 miles on it, and has always ran great. No problems, I changed the oil every 3k and used amsoil full synthetic, the maitenance was always kept up on this car. Timing belt was changed 10,000 miles prior. Brand new alternator and battery were put in less than 1k miles.
Anyone have any ideas what could of happened?
