Hey man thats EXACTLY what happened to mine! Maybe these 6.2s don't handle boost so well because one of my plugs was like that too when mine did that during a run. I was only on 8lbs with meth and a safe tune and the motor still went. Let me know what you find out as when mine went I gave it to a friend and he sent it straight off to the machine shop to get built up.

Plenty of l99 and ls3s running well over 700rwhp and are lasting longer than yalls. I'd look more towards the tune than the actual motor.
