this piston came out of the motor in my trans am (i bought it this way) it ****** exploded lol there was a hole about the size of a golf ball in the side of the block, the other piston that died (didnt get a pic) was cracked in half and the rod was snapped in half. idk what happened, i think it was bad machine work, but the block was to mangled to tell, it had .020 over bearings in it though.


someone did something wrong lol

 

I'd say so. any pictures of the mangled block.

 

Do you happen to live in the south any where? It might of hydrolocked from one of these storms.

 

i got the car from lexington kentucky.

someone just ran the **** outa it i guess, it smashed every intake lifter so bad i couldnt get ANY of them out of the car. ill get block pics tomorrow.

 

Was that person on KYhorsepower.com ? Haven't read of any major blow ups

 

no idea i bought the car off ebay, they just said it had a blown motor and i happened to have 2 spares laying around

 

Probably hydrolocked
