Failure

It sounds like a combination of several things mostly on the tuning side but aggravated with spark plug heat range, who knows what kind of fuel quality or octane if its street fuel, the AFR we shoot for on the dyno at peak tq/hp is 12.9 - 13.0 but with all the proper tuning if we ran 13.2 it would not have caused the above. It is odd that it effected one bank and no damage on the other unless there is a cam timing or grind issue from side to side, the likelyhood of trash in the carbs on one side is hard to believe, the combination above and the WOT at a place like Elkhart or Daytona where its run harder than most all places it shows these problems quickly.
