Hopefully, the only damage done was to the piston lands, and not to the cylinder walls or anything else.

It's funny you say that because there is a hole in the side of the block... Will take some pics tomorrow to see who guessed right... 20% goes to the house!!

Any oil around the hole? 'cause this doesn't sound good.

Ah, it is actually an electrical problem - engine won;t start right ??

Rod came out the side of the block and knocked the wire off the starter solenoid, so is actually an electrical problem !!!

D'oh .........

Well it doesn't look like I am going to be able to pull the motor today due to the weather. Yes the cars Always stays in the garage but I will have to roll it out a little to get the motor out with the tranny attached.

The suspense continues.... lol.

So if there's a nice rod-sized observation window into the side of the block, are you going to make it into a coffee table?

COSMO · 02-11-2014, 09:45 AM

Actually that's not a bad idea chuck, that would look cool in my man-cave..

I stole the idea from Top Gear. The real one, not the godawful US abortion. They've got a Jag motor as theirs. It looks awesome.

Just pulled the plugs and the rest look good except this one. This is from cylinder #5..
