So yesterday a friend and I decided to pull my intake and heads before yanking out my motor to see what exactly faild on this motor just as I suspected the piston failed and a big chunk of it came off and what you see is the rings on the right side .
Time to pull out the motor tonight and drop the 347 in

Yea no shit ,guy who built it told me that the pistons would be alright because of the ring gap guess he doesn't know how to gap them right either I should of stuck with my gut and not go with those pistons and now my brand new heads are burgered up if it needs repair best believe it's coming out of his pockets

There should be no guessing of where you should mount it. I hope you got the trunk mounted tank. The engine bay tank doesn't hold crap. Also stage 2 FTW!!
