Thanks everyone for the kind words. I was hoping it was not something big but at the same time it has been five years on a stock motor. From the damage, the most plausible answer is a rod let go. There are two distinct wholes on either side of the lower part of the motor just above the oil pan. It was a great motor and she ran strong and it ran strong right up until it didn't. So much fun and many memories. I smile when I think of EW ride down the highway on our way to Cars and Coffee Las Vegas and Joby holding on and smiling as we gave Hell Bender a run. So now on two Tora 2.0!!!
