I'm 99% sure your issue came from the bolt backing out of your intercooler, therefore allowing super hot air to bypass the intercooler and go directly into that cylinder making it detonate and cause all that damage. The bolt falling out of the intercooler lines up exactly with that cylinder that lifted the head/torched itself. You'd have an instant 250-350* or higher "depending on how hard you're spinning the blower" Charge air temp going directly into that cylinder. The charge air temp sensor is on the opposite side and might not have been able to see the temp increase as the other side of cylinders, primarily that rear one, was ingesting most of that hot air. Being on a good fuel and having a good AFR saved your other cylinders. But your AFR could be on point and you still can't pull enough timing quickly enough to solve the instant rise in charge air temp when the intercooler seal let go right above that rear cylinder

Jordan for president. Dude is so precise and detail oriented

[@AllThingsBoost]

Love the tear down videos, shame it also tears down the wallet at the same time. Hope it comes back with minimal issues in further analysis. Best of luck with everything.

[@jesseleister1525]

Love seeing Jordan working his magic. That dude knows his stuff

[@zr1daddy14]

This guy is so knowledgeable. Learn so much especially that I own a 2013 Shelby gt500

[@gbaileyo7]

This an amazing testament to these engines and this guys engine building skills and obviously a tuner who knew his stuff!

[@Coyote9smilespergallon]

Kinda crazy I built mine with you guys on your build but I only did my short block I did the 5.4 .020over version recipe of yours at same time, and I lifted my head too racing and beating a Suzuki after beat a hellcat a redeye a ProCharged S550 and C7 Z06 all same day and the bike was the last race on my way home with temps too hot! And never had her Dyno tuned either. So my build begins again too. Good luck

[@shawnsilverstang2138]

Good luck with the build man, it never ends.

[@lencac7952]

I think perhaps tiny bits of the steel head gasket is what got inside when it failed. I thought the rear main bearing took the most abuse because it is supporting the hp from all 8 cylinders because the hp is put throught the flange and then the trans.

[@shotemup123]

I'm really surprised you put this ain't the end of me into the montages lol. Such a good song

[@w.branch1096]

Sounds like that engine has held up well Andrew. Unfortunately, there will always come a time. I love watching Jordan work & he cracks me up. Good luck 🍻

[@biggravy732]

I feel your pain but I am almost glad the motor broke because the tear down and Jordan's analysis is awesome. Great video!!

[@alexchadbourne]

So cool to see how simple but technical Jordan’s explanations are.

[@SixStringRacer]

Hard to believe it's been two years. Time flies. Not a cheap car to own. Good luck with the rebuild.

[@amaurypena6526]

Good evening. In my opinion. I think it definitely leaned out and melted the tip of the spark plug and that's what bounded around on top of the piston. Just a theory. Still looks good 👍. Hell of an engine builder

[@amaurypena6526]

Good morning. Correct. He wasn't missing a bolt when taking it apart.

[@wessclox8760]

Love these videos, original series inspired me to do my own build. Would love to see more videos of you guys going over fixing this.

[@arthurlovett6045]

Wow! Jordon is on top of his game. Very Very Knowledgeable.

[@Coyote9smilespergallon]

On my Diamond pistons I had 3 pistons with the rings pinched, and 3 with pitting and like a hammered effect on the exhaust valve cut outs. All from detonation from wrong Tune.

[@leehinson]

mad respect to Jordan, young dude with awesome skills.

[@gbaileyo7]

Wow...you somehow kept my attention for 35 minutes straight! Your the first!!! Lol

[@4nathanscomcastnet]

Did the broken tip of the Spark plug cause it ?

[@skullhart]

How feasible would it be to repair the deck and head and put it back together as-is with new bearings, chains, etc.

[@carculturenation2166]

i would love a sit down interview of you getting into Jordans mind. From childhood to his education to career and a teline by age. When he built it i was blown away by his knowledge and attention to detail. now seeing him disassemble his work is like wow. i forgot how old is he?

[@w.branch1096]

Andrew... What's your plans/schedule for Mustang Week 2022 (possible info video) 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@mach183]

I would still double key my crank .. but that’s just me And I would take the iron 5.4 iron over the 5.8 anyway it’s been proven to make power reliably

[@Prestiged_peck]

The mod motors supposedly the aluminum blocks are the strongest, the aluminum ford GT 5.4 is supposedly the strongest tall deck block from what I've heard.

[@mach183]

@@Prestiged_peck I thought that as well until read an article by JOHN MIHOVITZ Google “misconception about mod motors “ you will find a article by John who is the record holder it’s got some pretty interesting info …. TEKSKID aluminum is the strongest block in the modular family ; I believe those come from the 98-01 cobra motors

[@Prestiged_peck]

@@mach183 yeah the teksid block actually came reliably from 96-01, and were scattered in after that, as well as 92-98 on the Lincoln mark 8 I've got one of those blocks and I'm gonna actually get it done up by accufab.

[@mach183]

@@mach183 yep, and I was talking of the tall deck 5.4/5.8 blocks I could've sworn he said the AL 5.4 from the supercar is the toughest block.

[@MODIT]

shocker. 1200+ hp, surprised there would be wear lol Assuming its safe to say no matter as many oil changes the amount of force on the bearings its just to much and would require replacement of them. How many miles with this much power?

[@mickeymang6]

Cyclinder #4? Head cooling modification done? Looks like detention to me.
