block is totally filled with coolant only in the head. I am running an 8x11" oil cooler with 36k BTU heat rejection and a temp gauge. I also have an AMS pan on it for the extra capacity.

Andrew's car continues to kick *** and mine started night before last and should be on the dyno today hopefully. Lots of cars to prep before the 2 IFO events we have this weekend and next so I am last in line but it will happen today or tomorrow.

Hopefully sometime this coming week
My phone died at the track (never remember my charger) but I got a best of 11.41@120.48 with only 21.8psi on the Stock IX turbo. Black failed because of oil starvation somehow, dropped to a stocker and went out on the lowest the high pressure actuator would let me go. My 60' wasnt even there yet, only a 1.76. Next pass was a 1.64 60' but I had to abort and didnt get a chance to run it all the way out.

So its been awhile since I posted on this subject and decided it was time for an update. I havent had much time to post on EvoM, let alone work on the car but Jeff and yanked the trans out 2 weeks ago and sent it to Metro to sit in line. I recieved a call yesterday that informed me the actual failure point was not what I had suspected but rather I had stripped out a ring and pinion (realistically ring only).
I will try to get some carnage pix up, but for the time being the upgraded shaft finally got here so that and a heat treated R&P will go in and back to the track. Since it died due to wheelhop I am going to throw some 15's on it (have the brakes on it for this anyway) with some M&Hs to cure that issue before it goes back.
The hollow shaft, planetaries, and the clutch packs look fine so they will be reused for this trans and then we'll address the next issue.
