thanks mighty....she is a hottie

yea this is the 2nd time that motor went on me...first time i got cursed with an oil issue and spun a bearing...had to rebuild FAST (im military and was on leave at home when it went) so could not afford the time to get forged internals...so it just go built back stock. this time its getting BUILT tho so hopefully the new motor lasts for a while.

That's the funniest series of "blown motor" shots I've seen EVER.

Glad you're having fun with it.

ouch that sucks to see all that engine destruction...but having good friends around does make it suck less though...its either that or the girl "makes it all better" for you.

JBWeld probably won't hold it together. Might want to consider TIG welding it back on and a little duct tape

Looks like kinda tightish ring end gap? That was axctly the reason why i lost a #8 stock piston on spray was it had like a .005" ring end gap on the top ring and never detonated to the point where there was damage to plugs or never showed over 3 degrees of KR but lifted a corner and mulched the chunk and cracked the sleeve... it was ugly. Happend at the end of a spray pass and pushed the head gasket from cracking the block etc... Yeah nice chick, id throw it in!

i was runnin 5.5psi not sure on the exact timing/afr but it was safe...i think i got a tank of bad gas from a podunk gas station in texas and it detonated
