There was one hg failure just.
The first engine threw a rod in standard tune so can only assume it was hydrolocked at one point?
The 2nd engine which got hgf was entirely my fault due to a coolant leak which I had diagnosed and didnt fix sadly. Car overheated a couple of times and was down on power/quite a bit more smokey and the cooling system was overpressurising then. Sniff test confirmed it really.
Reverting to stage 1 was more due to the trip from northern ireland over to FCS and the engine was an unknown one really with 180k miles already on it. Didnt want to add in any more factors to fail before the trip just..
