Those pics look very similar to when I destroyed my motor, but I wasn't abusing it NEARLY as much as what you were doing... way to go out in style!

I'll have two sleeved longblocks ready to go in about 3-4weeks!

You could get some money as scrap metal! Might get enough money to go towards one quart of oil for the new motor.

Good luck with your build. Did flying parts destroy anything else in the engine bay?
Everything else in the engine bay is fine...

I minor honing and you should be ready for reassmbly.

That is some horrific damage...nice work. At least you were prepared to rebuild the engine, and were determined to set some new ground with the stock internals.

And pics of the big end of your rods?

As we discussed over the phone, its not too late to put some Arias Extreme Duty pistons in your new engine that Scott's is building for you.

Hey your motor has a hole in the bottom. Be careful. It might be leaking oil.
