However, first thing's first... I blew ANOTHER transmission out about 4 hours ago.

LOL Guys!

I've been running built T-56's and I've been through 2 built TR-6060's. Argh. (built locally)

The 6060's seem to hold up the best. I haven't yet run an RPM Built 6060 but I may try them next!

Do you know exactly what is breaking on them?

Klotz does not leave the residue...and the "orange rust type substance" you mention above is not relegated to simply discoloring your plugs but also leaves a healthy build-up on top of the psitons, all over the combustion chamber, the valve faces, etc....

Back from the dead. I noticed Klotz is much cheaper, $10.75 per pint Vs the $23 or so with Klotz. They also sell it by the gallon and in 10 packs. What I did notice was at the bottom it stated it is not "Alcohol" compatible. Does that mean that it will still be fine with methanol injection? Or are they just basically stating you cant use it while mixing with straight Alcohol powered vehicles.

Recently switched from Torco to Klotz because of the buildup you get with the Torco.

MMT = buildup, most critically on your plugs, cats, and O2 sensors.

Both addictives made my 12:1 LS2 run better. I was forced to do the testing on these boosters based on my old meth system dying. Will be fixing the meth system and keeping a few cans of Klotz in the trunk for any future meth system issues
