scattered motor, new plans
scattered my motor the other night at 6700 rpm. wasnt too fun. i know this sounds crazy but the 2nd and 3rd rods from the front of the motor let loose and completely wiped the block. the rods took out a section from about the bottom of the motor mount down the side clear to the bottom of the pan, across the bottom and up the other side. its insane. i think if the heads werent on it, the block would be in half. but i need to know what i wanna do. i either want to build a iron block 408, or just get a stock ls1 block and fill it with forged internals and then spray like a 200-250 shot on it. what would u do?

without a doubt I'd look to the 408 iron blocks for a great buget short-block. We stock tons of these things with different rod, piston & ring combos. I bet we have a setup ready for 200+ shots in stock & ready to roll. Let me know if we can help you out with one. We also stock 370s typically, but your within a few hundred bucks of the 408, you'd just about be crazy not to take the extra cubes for the little bit extra $$$$...

wasnt spraying. we pulled the motor tonite, broke the block about 3 inches up on both sides and clear down both sides of the pan, 2 pistons disapeared, 3 rods were broken, and one bent about 10 degrees. it was basically heads and cam car, lt's, intake,car made around 400, but new setup will be higher compression, around 11.3:1 with a whole lotta n2o.
