The motor was yanked yesterday and thought I'd share some of the carnage before the actual motor is built... if you're going to blow a motor do it in style LOL

cracked rod in half


another cracked rod


what's left of a piston


broken cradle


balance shaft bent


crank pulley destroyed


and one side of the block, had 4 hole total


last is my trustworthy ACT HDSS Clutch that lasted me 80K miles, pretty damn good


The Head had little to no damage, which was all I could hope for, the Crank on the other hand was shredded, future project plans to come...

 

And how did you manage to do that damage exactly?

 

that's massive destruction.... On to the build...

 

lol You sure did it in a magnificent style.... So I guess none of those parts arent going to be salvaged for the new build cause based on those pics I would not even trust reusing a bolt from that wreck.My question is how much boost you had on it and did you do it intentionally knowing you are going to do a fully built motor?

 

damm thats the way to do it

 

yeah, how did that happen? What are you going to do to the motor now? Good luck on the build.

 

5th gear pull on the highway, nothing special maybe 3000 rpms, low boost high load

 

How much boost? And what's ur power output?

 

Sooo this just means, Build time

 

that looks pretty rugged.

 

im jealous. thats amazing and terrible all in one nice work. i was told by a couple savy evo guys never boost in 5th on a stock block/rods. guess they might know something. good luck with the new build. i got a shortblock if your looking for a core

 

Never low rpm... high load on the motor, low revs, lots of boost = kaboom. I never get on it in 5th until I'm over 4.5k rpms for that reason. Epic destruction OP... thats amazing damage.

 

Good info to know. I didn't know it was a hazard to do low rpm rolls in a high gear. I'm sorry for the loss...but on to BIGGER and BETTER THINGS

 

damn thats pretty impressive!

 

How much HP where you making?
