What happens when the flywheel lets go on a 557 ci., Kaase headed BOSS motor. bellhousing was sfi certified but the fly wheel was not the bellhousing didn't contain the flywheel when it let go because the bolt holes in the block broke.

Holy ****.

just a few scratches..

damn that's power lol luckly no one got hurt

jesus, that could of cut some one clean in 2

woooooooottttt 1000 posts

:shock: whoa that was exciting. holy crap

too bad the good headers werent on. lucky everyone is alright though

Yeah, that's some serious damage - good thing no one was in the way of those flying pieces!

wow :shock:

I am glad I got an SFI Approved bell for both of my cars!

woooooooow

Too bad that went through the block... :wink:

Yeah well with no SFI bellhousing if it was in a car I would definitely have no legs. I bet it would have done a lot more damage if it had not been slowed down by the bell and block.

No doubt, someone was saying last night, I think Justin, that what if that had been an LS1... ouch... aluminum ftl.

Fixed that for ya :wink:

Its funny how the LS got an SFI bell way before the LT guys did :rofl: only took what, almost 10 years? :lol:

The opti would take a **** before it got spinning that fast... :mrgreen:

IDK bout you, but my block is iron... LS1's are aluminum... that woulda gone right through it like butter...

There is a steel block plate in between the bell and block, so it would have really just been a little easier for it to pull the bolts out of the block. It wouldnt really have been able to cut the block up. Same thing woulda happened like the one pictured

Ah ok.

you can see the block plate in those pictures too, the people who thought up the SFI cert kinda knew what they were doing :wink:

IDK manual things...


I just worry about my converter exploding in a blast of fins and hot tranny fluid... LOL

I think that is why they make a scattersheild for autos, basically protects the passenger like the manual one.
I may be wrong though

Yeah, and trans blankets.

dam thats some serious damage

:shock:

i bet they'll make sure everything is SFI approved next time...

imagine if that was in the car and he was racing it. ick!
