Well, 6000 rpm in 5th puts you very fast, my guess is that the fan had a lot of side load on it from wind resistance and went kaboom. How long til its fixed? Does the SR waterpump bolt up?? ---

Does the SR waterpump bolt up?? Side load? That has nothing to do with it. The water pump couldn’t handle it is all. The water pump probably cavitated and boom it went… ---

Saw that happen to a guy on freshalloy a few months ago. Rob i hope you have wheelsthat are half the stock size if you were at 5000rpm in 5th, because i know you always obey posted speed limits. ---
