I was just saying that there actually is an e-force issue...the fuel rail design. Easy and cheap to fix. Not an issue at the base level install. Yes you have to address tune, injectors, pump with any SC build that goes beyond the base install but with the others that feed evenly from the center the fuel rail is not an issue. With the e-force if you don't change the feed with Ted's mod or some other mod...you are at a higher risk for a problem for #5 and #7 to blow.

I will semi agree with you. Feeding both rails makes sense to me, I suggest that anyone do it. It cost almost nothing to do yourself.

I have modified my lines to feed both rails, because it makes sense and gives me piece of mind. That said, Ted, and his mod are not known in the corvette world. There are tons of eforce vettes running around without this done and I have yet to hear of a problem related to it.

Yes everything was accounted for and tuned properly. Sometimes things just happen. It was the #5 Piston and Rod,Domino Effect Nothing left but the Headers and Electronics.

Question, If your car is on the dyno does this problem show up?

I called LPE and asked about this being a problem and they said they sale 3 yr 36 mos. warranty cars and if there was a problem it would be addressed and they haven't had a problem yet and they have a lot of 750 hp cars. Same with hennessey so not that these companies are any better than Janet, but seems if there was huge problem the others would get on board..

Personally I have not seen this problem show up and am not convinced its really a problem. Like I said its worth doing for peace of mind anyways, as it cost almost nothing to do it yourself.
A lot of 750 hp eforce cars ? I wish they would share more details because I don't see many details of cars at that level, and would like to.

Ya, LPE GT9 Cam, 2.75 pulley, Full headers and Exhaust, Ported CNC heads, Injectors, LPE Dual pump, and there Super exchanger (really just the AFCO heat exchanger) and meth injection. Put you at 750 rwhp.. Most of its done on the ZL1 but I have seen a few SS's.
