Unless compression is WAY off, or you're overheating like hell, It's not likely near to going boom on it's own.

If you're intent on destroying it, I'd do the coca cola method, or what Ryan did to his SOHC B6.... It's in one of his threads, and seemed destructive enough ;D

In all seriousness though, just running it hard wont destroy it, as I've tried the same to my K8 motor for a few years now. I ended up going through 2 clutches and a tranny and the motor still runs strong....that's why I just gave up and talked my wife into letting me do the swap anyways( she originally said I could only swap it when the K8 dies). But good luck to ya

car can do 100 in 2nd, 120 wouldn't kill it. And yes, you'll blow the trans sooner doing that.

Try a 40 second 1st gear redline burnout.

Fill it to the oil cap with water. That'd be fun.

new driver... taking out the fluid's would be totally un-called for if ur running a 200 shot.. thats double the hp of the motor.. but if ud read the rest of the post's ud see what you said was already discussed.
