Had spay on mine for awhile. Boondocker kit. Wet spray. Into the airbox carb connectors. Problem with that it finally killed the engine!
Started with a failed coolant pump, which caused crank/piston wash. That caused ware on the crankshaft, which left flat spots on 1/3. That led to piston slap which resulted in ring failure and not enough compression to start the sled. The last run destroyed the Secondary almost to the point of shrapnel. Totally surprised it didn't explode and take the cowling. Took it off and placed it on the table and it split in pieces. Lucky that day.
The pistons themselves and the jugs didn't damage at all. I just rebuilt everything back to stock.
The engine with NOS was stock but we did the NOS work. Loctited every Fking piece, knowing it would blow at some point. Basically it was built to grass race and die!
Engine and mix race fuel 123mph add the spray we got a run at 142.
