Awesome. I grenaded a Subaru once, and a rod broke the intake in half and ended up on top of the spare tire. Gotta love carnage.

Yep, carnage is kinda cool. Too bad it cost so much.

We're not sure why my engine grenaded, but it was balanced, etc. Others have told me the crank may have had a crack we didn't know about, but it's a moot point now.
I would never build an engine like this again to begin with, but it's what came in the car and we ran it 3 seasons. Just 1 run too many I guess. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]
