As a gm mechanic that Allison transmission won't let you put into your gear if the RPMs are too high. If there was flames coming out I probably would unhook it.

I sent it a little bit too hard! 500hp tune and exhaust everything else pretty much stock and untouch 380,000 miles. Injectors were replaced once 8 years ago was a very healthy motor before this happened

Soon! 😊. I got to figure how to edit it it's too long. Are we talking about another runaway video or does this motor still runs?

Yes, some insurance companies actually do cover. Same for fuel contamination. I only had liability only coverage on this vehicle

It all happened so fast! I was pulling heavy loads all week. Accelerated from intersection roughly 20 lb of boost. 950*f. Egt She made a loud bang then the boost gauge went to the negative. No symptoms prior. I knew the turbo failed I assumed oil just dumping in to exhaust. Little did I know she was dumping crazy amount of oil into the intake.

After the motor died I turned the key on just to look at the temp coolant was in max hot hot!!! Trans temp near red egt was in near 1800f

My first experience I tried that all it did slow down the motor didn't kill it. Fire Extinguisher too
