Anyone throwing a blower manifold on:
Just a note, your oil pan bolts are the exact same thread and size. Just order a set of 10 buck oil pan studs from modmax and use your oil pan bolts M8x1.25 to mount the manifold. Should save you 5 buck per bolt if using OEM.

I had had plenty issues with detonation before and I guess now that I think if it tune was prolly the cause. Due to tuner not knowing the huge amount of load the 38"s put in the motor. When taking motor apart heads showed a lot of sign of having detonation for a long time so I guess i just pushed it to hard at the track.
Melded piston!

I realize it was detonating, was the tune lean and rich in the wrong areas,- for the track? Strange, the piston almost looks dented from the top view. Haven't seen one quite like it.

Would you suggest using a reg heat exchanger with a custom Efan pair or a custom pkg that incorporates them from the factory?

Either is good.
H/E's don't do much for drag racing. There not enough time for it to actually cool.
I had a single pass AFCO H/E with dual 8"(IIRC) EFans wire to be on all the time.
Honestly the best thing would be spend the money on a J&S Vampire Timing Retard System. It monitors detonation and can retard timing automatically. I'll be installing one on a full bolt on Whippled @ 15# stock block HD in a few weeks
I'll be sure I take pics.
JJ@WMS tunes it. With one revision it was spot on! Very very impressed with JJs tuning ability! Had a Rick@Amazon tune before the Whipple and the owner never thought it was what it should have been that's why he switched and is happy he did.
That is a 03 with 24K miles. I have done every single mod to it. It is very nice to have the chance to build such a nice truck without the owner saying well I don't have money for the good stuff, let's do this instead. Makes my job a lot easier when he gets the best from jump street!
