Jake could have said "I can tell ya, but then I'll have to kill ya"!!!!

Lookin' forward to the July-august release of the product and theory. My after-market warranty will be expiring soon after that and I want to be able to sleep at night, so Jake's product should be just in time......... (Thanks Jake)

Jake,
Please describe the "procedure" of forcing an engine to fail. I want to be sure I never accidently do it.

The procedure for forcing an engine failure is to extract a perfectly good IMSR bearing from an engine and replace it with a bearing that is at stage II failure.. I have several of these that I can choose from that were extracted from engines that we have saved recently.

Then drive the car until the engine breaks... While my technology is employed to forecast the big moment..

I sacrifice good parts all the time and this won't be the first time I have blown up a 6,000+ dollar engine on purpose, for the sake of science and development.

Jake,

Are you planning on using an engine that a customer had in their car that you recently replaced with one of your engines, or are you building an engine from a randomly sourced core with parts you have on hand, or are you building and engine using perfect parts, and the failed IMS bearing will be the only faulty part in the entire engine?

BC.
