Ever wonder what happens when sandblasting media meets a race engine spinning at 7,000 RPM? 🤔
Yeah… me neither. 😂 sorry @rayven13_ 🫣
But apparently my LT decided we needed to conduct a little science experiment. 🧪💀
Remember that oil pressure relief valve that got stuck open? Well, we finally found the culprit.
Cut open the oil filter and SURPRISE! 🎉 Enough blasting media in there to start a fucking beach. 🏖️
Nothing quite like spending thousands building a race engine just to find out it’s been sandblasting itself from the inside. 🤦♂️
On today’s episode of Race Car Shit: expensive lessons nobody asked for.
Built with regret. Fueled by poor decisions. 🏁🔥

Hell ya. Glad you saved the block that’s a bit of a win. Sucks about the sand. Next time we blast with dry ice or something.
