I know the story behind that one...
Long story short: The dyno broke causing nearly all resistance to go away.
Overrev=boom! --- (...was making over 600 WHP when the dyno gave out!)

The engine had been heavily modified including tuning/editing of the ECU parameters, cam, headers and nitrous. The dyno did indeed break, at about the time the car received a healthy shot of NOx. Add all those together, and you're on your own.

At the chavy dealer a week later, (put back to stock), as it's being unloaded off the flatbed,..." I was on my way to church and the motor just quit "
