i can't believe the pistons would become a ball of metal.



i thought if u rev that high your connecting rods would just snap, or your pistons would mash into a valve and force it out of the valve covers.



woah.... what the hell did he do? run it at 16,000 rpm for 10 mins?

Friend of mine did the same thing in an old IROC. The trans split in two the whole way back and the engine was dead. I wish we would've had digital cameras back then. Would've been a great picture.
