2016 Procharged motor build

[Agent_S550]

I had the same exact failure. Crazy

Well modulars have always been known to have issues with the rear cylinders on boosted motors. I will be doing the cooling bypass kit before I supercharge my car.

Yea I did that when I put it back together

Thanks man. It was a lot of work. I have to hand it to my buddy for building and not trying to do a warranty.

I would've done the same thing. Those rods and Pistons will be able to take a pretty good beating now. Exactly why I just decided to build a motor.

THAT, is NOT the same failure as the original posters image.

His is the common rings butting together failure.
Ring gap to small, since OEM's don't really care to make them large.

Yours is heat.
Either the EGT's went high, or that slug was lean, or coolant issue.

Thanks man(really appreciate the insight )
Heat eh? May be lean? Not knock?
I have no idea what I was looking at ....just saw a chunk missing like his
OP -sorry not trying to jack your thread but this sure helps.

I have since "upgraded" my fuel system to triple pumps and ID 1300s .
Also did the head cooling mod and see much lower CHT's since although that could be the GT 350 heads too.(I had the low thermostat before the failure )

Excellent build!

I agree that looks like it went lean or got extremely hot. Lean plus high cylinder pressures means a lot of heat.

Heat happened one way or another, here are common ways that can happen.

1) Lean... we all know that can get hot fast even from a simple bad injector.
2) Steam pocket in head, not as common, but can happen
3) To Rich, washed wall down causing high temp on cly wall
3) To Much boost, took all the timing out of it, causing high cly temps.

But yes, a very different failure then the first picture in this thread.
That piston clearly had the common ring butting, flutter, lift the ole ring lands.
The rest of the piston looks great, color looks great etc.

Best of luck with the new build, and have FUN. :cheers::ford:

Agreed. Can you PM me? I talked to you guys a couple weeks ago about a belt rubbing issue. I was told there was a revised part and nobody got back a hold of me.

MAYBE YOU SHOULD THROW A 11LB PULLEY AND SOME 60LB INJECTORS MY WAY SO I CAN LET YOU KNOW IF MY MOTOR CAN HANDLE IT :cheers:

Yeah good luck with that. Fuck!&g Kevin LOL

How did you manage to get your hp to torque ratio so close? I've never seen torque that close to hp on the s550

 

[sigintel]

Could have been lean causing melt thru that led to ring overheat and gap bind that then resulted in ring land popping.
Did you have two pieces or one?
If one, then maybe first hole was vaporized AL so no large piece and then when ring and lands bound from resulting overheat, then you got the second piece breaking loose as a whole chunk.

I have never heard of a revised belt rubbing thing?
Seems the few that rubbed, came down to casting differences on the ford heads.

Drop the gang a call at 913-338-2886, and they might know more then me.

I called a few weeks back and they said it was for sure an issue with the HO kit and they would get back to me. they also mentioned a part revision. I'll give them another shout tomorrow.
