[@pddofficial]

They are frightening in person as well, that chassis dyno is scary when power exceeds 1000 HP!

[@bcbloc02]

I agree, looks like the block gave it up first. Classic failure splitting out thru the bolt holes. Back in the day split several 12v blocks like that some from end to end. At 13:49 it is visible a lot of sand caved in in that casting also appears there maybe a metal issue at the bottom of that right hand head bolt/ You can see it looks real shiny compared to everything else. A pitty Hamilton can't put a chamfer on a hole. Everyone visible there is a sharp as machined hole, that makes a huge stress riser and a perfect place for cracks to start. Going to be some much better recast blocks coming out of Pa/Ohio I hear soon but they won't be wet blocks.

[@pddofficial]

We've had excellent results with the solid Hamilton blocks. Is there another solid block coming out?

[@bcbloc02]

@@pddofficial One of the shops I do machine work for is looking into getting blocks cast to be a more affordable option to the deck plate motors. They likely will be 4 bolt mains with cross bolts as well to tie the entire lower structure of the block together in a girder around the plane of the crank rather than below it like a girdle does. So no girdle will be needed.

I feel your pain, Josh. I'm a drag racer that runs Competition Eliminator and everything we have is pushing the limits. In this case, considering how high on the cylinder the damage was etc I'd say that was a Piston failure, or like you said a block failure. Bad casting? Maybe a core shift making the casting weak in that spot. The silver lining is it looks like the cam, crank and other 5 rods and pistons are saveable. That should save a fair amount of $$$

Was this a Hamilton block? There was a post on Firepunk forum how another lost everything when it let go at 1250 hp.

You may be doing the same thing I just don't know. I do know that he keeps saying that if black smoke is pouring out of the exhaust, your piston/cylinder temps are very high and as he says "pulling the pin on a grenade". Now he is making or trying to make reliable longer term power, not drag race quick power. I don't know what your customer wanted from this engine. Just thinking out loud.

Core shift. I went through this with 3 Hamilton stage 3 heads before I got a half way decent one. Then the machine work was so bad I ended up going stock ported. Had about the same amount of money at the end of the day. But had a way better head in the end.

[@Titan604]

Might also be worth looking at how the fire ring was machined. If it has sharp corners it will be a stress raiser that can cause cracking that would propagate pretty quickly given the stress the block is already under.

[@pddofficial]

Fire ring groove in the block and head is a radius aka round groove, not a rectangular groove.

So, does this mean that the block thickness in this video should be checked on the replacement block? Or was the thinner wall thickness on cylinder #5 just coincidental from the failure? Seems like that was inconclusive.

looks like the block may have shifted during the casting

Usually 45 psi is the danger zone for a stock good condition HX35 on a 12v cummins. We've seen some make it to 50 psi and last 6 months, we've seen some blow up the first time they hit 45 psi. 42psi is the safe max we recommend for the guys living on the edge of failure.... 38 psi seems to be the industry accepted safe max for long term reliability.

That oil looks awful. I know diesel oil is dirtier, but is it usually that bad?

[@pddofficial]

Oil gets dark quickly on race engines with larger than stock ring gaps and such, the sooty blowby on a diesel is much nastier than a gasoline engine. If we build a new 500ish or less HP engine to nearly stock specs, the oil will stay golden and clean for about 2k miles. On one of these loose big power engines, oil stays golden colored for 1 run! Now the super nasty thick oil in the picture is the result of water mixed with sooty oil, cast iron metal bits, raw fuel, etc.... it was pretty nasty!

Honestly, the 8.3 is the weak dog in the Cummins line, the 5.9 and 6.7 B-series are much stronger. The only thing an 8.3 has going for it is the bigger displacement gives it an advantage in medium duty buses and trucks with additional off-idle torque, but under boosted conditions, the 6.7 kills it!

Peter Southern Boy unfortunately after Joshs rant on FB stating Hamilton is at fault and the comp blocks are junk pretty much and he’ll never buy another Hamilton product I doubt that’s even in the realm of possibility. Not to mention these are competition products that really don’t carry a warranty due to what they will be put through. As far as having to machine things that’s part of the comp game, even in the gas world things in a comp motor build require machining and custom fitting of parts. That’s why good engine builders charge so much.
