So, instead of shifting to 4th, he accidentally shifted into 2nd gear right around 7k RPMs. All of a sudden, we hear a "boom" and it started to stink real bad. Right after that, we heard the chunks of the block falling out from underneith the car and hitting the chassis.

I guess they can't rev forever.

I'm trying to figure out what the metal eggs were.

Reminds me of a guy on the Porsche board I post at. He down shifted from like 4th into 1st and the motor saw aporimatly 14,500 rpm's But the more amazing thing about this is that the motor had factory spec compresion in 5 of the 6 cylinder and only had a few bent valves. He could of fixed it all with not to much work but he decided to build a 3.6.

I like the pistons that now look like oyster shells . Dumbass kids.

I had a '84 Toyota Corolla back in college and coming back from a baseball game I let a friend drive home as I had been drinking. We were on the freewy going about 55mph and he tried to shift from 5th to 3rd.... and the j*ckass actually put into 1st for a brief second and fully let out the clutch but then put it back in.... I saw the tach bury itself past 8000rpm (redline was 6000). I about died as I thought the motor would be toast. Well 25K miles later I sold it and it ran perfectly still.
