Some cool carnage pics of my motor

[Scott Atk]

Finally got around to dropping my oil pan yesterday. Thought I would share some pics. Notice how a hunk of the block is still bolted to the pan.

..ok..aside from the obvious..what happened ?????

 

[URSPANKED]

A set of bearings, a wisk broom, and some brake cleaner and you'll be fine.

 

[Scott Atk]

Broke # 2 rod which in turn took out #1. No knock, Good A/F ratio. I'm pretty sure I just exceeded the HP potential of the stock rods. Here's another.

Scott,

That is impressive, no one can ever say you do things half assed!

 

[cruzn57]

Block toast? :frown:

 

[TexasT]

A set of bearings, a wisk broom, and some brake cleaner and you'll be fine.

And maybe some JB weld for the oilpan. :biggrin:

I think you may need the majic wand for that one. That is one hurt engine.

 

[Quiky One]

Holly cow...

Looks like Freddy Kruger from Nightmere on elm st wanted out of your oil pan in a hurry.

 

[DonnieShort]

Oh my that's ugly What kind of power were you making?

 

[Scott Atk]

Never had it on a dyno, but it was definitely making power. The last few times to the track it became a consistent 9.8x car. The air was great the night it blew, it went about the 1200 ft. mark and coasted to a best ever of 9.79.

is everything junk? was this done racing that evo?if so, nice run!

 

[Scott Atk]

Yes, Racing a VERY fast EVO. It's mostly junk. Heads are still good... that's about it.

 

[MSDGN]

Was the motor girdled?...how much boost?

 

[ahollowtub]

It's mostly junk. Heads are still good... that's about it.

Youd think the pice of block still attached to the oil pan would be a big clue that not much was left

 

[Turbo1dr]

Care to disclose how much boost you had on it?

 

[Underboost]

WOW!!! That hurt!

Hey, What was the Boost? Race Gas or Alky or both?

 

[Scott Atk]

28 psi. 100 octane pump gas + RAZOR alky.
I am in no way distraught about this motor, I literally beat the piss out of it for 3 years plus. The last two in the low tens with 12 passes in the nines. All with only two center billet caps. It gave me great service and when it broke, it broke in the finals of the local street car shoot out while coasting to the win.
I have a new RJC girdle, new RJC oil pan, CAT crank, and K1 rods. Still shopping for pistons and cam. I'm hopeing to have it running by the VEGAS event this fall, provided there is one.
