      sometimes its hard to say something without mentioning something.. Cleets Proline is a whole different ball game and steve and Cleet have always done drag-n-drive but now Cleets cant do it with his new car so will the haters say "why is he not did they have a fall out?" no the difference is Cleets gone to a different class and that class there is no driving to the track so steve explains why.. notice no mention when it comes to MULLET? MULLET is still a drag-n-drive car

      Cleetus is running a proline because nobody on that crew can be convinced they need to tear down a motor after every couple passes case and point they yeeted the lash caps off the proline after the second pass because they didn't check the lash...

    Hello Steve, Crank cracked from the torque converter ballooning. At 4000 hp, siezed lifter cause detonation-miss-fire. The instant high torque transferred to the torque converter causing pressure to exceed 2500-5000 psi. 5000 psi can cause 0.250" thick wall 12" torque converter to balloon. The force from the ballooning exceeds 500,000 lbs force. Ck, runout dimension converter mount to bushing flange. If it exceed 0.020"-0.040" it's ballooned.

    Thank you for your tech advice/ education. I was not able to comment on your earlier vid about the scratch and dent motor so I shot you an email about it and you confirmed what I was thinking happened. It reminded me of your older videos about the problems with your converter, mullet must be running crazy line pressure and I think you have even talked about it before and had him turn down his line pressure/ line lock

    Thank you for sharing your knowledge and explaining the process of BUILDING versus assembling engines. I have been explaining why I file rings, match valve spring pressures, weigh pistons adjust crank end play when building engines since the mid 1980’s and still get the same statement from people. It doesn’t matter the parts are made to fit just put the in. Glad to see even someone of your caliber of engine building gets same result

    👍 Steve, I have been a machinist for 37 years, and I understand what you are talking about as in crank thrust.
    Most people AND mechanics are just part swappers, so most don't understand.
    You are educating a lot of people, especially those that really want an engine build to last!

    I think the biggest problem with the SMX in Mullet - was mullet was never designed to run that kind of horsepower. It didn't have the chasis to handle that kind of torque, and things were moving/twisting in a way they shouldn't. It's why the Brodix bigblock is actually faster. If things start moving - they'll start breaking. Now the trans and motor aren't solid together, and you get weird forces pressing in places and in ways they weren't meant to. Now stuff breaks.
