Oh s*** that really sucks.... really sorry to hear that Mike. My son still talks about your SHO from time to time, that's how much of an impression it made on him when we all met up at the track, maybe 4 or 5 years ago. I am sure it will be back on the road soon.

Wow I'm in shock. My buddy had shipped his Hellcat charger there and they just finished an engine build. I'm sorry your going through this but you'll be stronger in the end and your amazing SHO will live another day..

Ouch! so sorry to hear, as many have said, I saw your videos and thought thats the car for me, and the only other car I could ever afford that was good enough to replace my beloved full on G8. AWD, 6 sp auto twin turbo, 4 doors giant trunk and the ultimate red light to red light Q ship. Hang in there, post as the info comes in. Not sure how your situation will work, but isnt the facility repsoncible for some the financial loss/fixing money? You are at the tip of the ice berg s*** happens. You have alot of friends here, we all feel your pain....

With your new mods you basically would have been able to command less boost, and make more power efficiently and quite frankly anything less than 11.54 would have been the new record so I really just don't understand how this could have happened given the new mods installed and I bet there's barely much over 10k or so on that built engine.  The whole thing smells funny.

I do hate that this happened to you because I know you love that car and take care of it...I actually remember watching one of your videos way before I got my sho and was like damn these things can be fun

So what is the plan moving forward!
Why did you yank it out of there so fast? How will that help the investigation efforts?

Purely speculation:  I think to rule out foul play a 3rd party should open up the motor and determine cause of death.  That would be the smartest step if one feels the initial explanation of failure was less than sufficient.  Of course this isn't a human and she can/will come back to life but it sure does feel like a lost loved one.  I don't foresee the new mods causing this to happen.  I would bet this was still within the 500ish awhp range, albiet more but still keeping in mind drivetrain health.  Which leads you to believe once more the engine should have been completely fine as its been validated with 600awhp ...and the new mods increased efficiency...so I believe there was either a problem with the motor build itself and was some sort of ticking time bomb no matter what or there was a fatal tuning error, or new injector failure.  I know of at least one person in the EVO world who built his motor with Cosworth internals and ended up having one of his new injectors stick open.  He wasn't down for long so I don't know the extent of damage or details.    Potential transmission issues were on everyones mind and never was the structural integrity of the motor.

We should honor bpd's request and not speculate on what "might" have happened.  I am sure in due time, we will come to know the facts :)

Agreed.  I just can't stop thinking about it.  I will wait for the details to be revieled at their own pace.

First and foremost, I am sorry to hear about this BPD. That is a tough pill to swallow. The being said.......

I will be that guy. Clearly LMS was having issues tuning something. If people have followed your build recently, using a reasonable amount of deductive reasoning...one modification sticks out in my mind. Now hearing the motor is hurt.....seems something went array. I will not continue my speculation out of respect for BPD.

I am not shocked that the car is not staying at LMS for a tear down on their own dime. If I was LMS I would be making this "right" regardless of lose. Their motor, mostly their parts or parts recommended by them, their tune, and a catastrophic failure on their dyno..... Even being an "elite" customer of theirs, I am not again shocked at the treatment you are receiving. I lost all respect for LMS after the whole V11 debacle, this is the frosting and sprinkles for my cake.

I would not let LMS tune my non existent lawnmower.

Sad to hear man...I certainly hope that after the dust settles she is back on the road again soon...we cannot lose such an iconic ground breaking SHO.  I will resist speculation but will say IF it is LMS error I would certainly hope that the would make it right or at least offer heavily discounted parts and labor.  Good luck - it's like losing a beloved pet - IMHO.
