So DSM didnt fail me ;) lol.. Ill let the pics speak for themselves.

I first noticed this hole in the front of the block.. and you can see through the oil pan!!

Then I saw what was left of the starter.. so something had to happen in the back too...

Oh hello!! there's another hole... and the attached piece of the starter..

I pulled the oil pan off and with it came the missing chunk of the block.

The team that caused the damage!!

Where is the rest of my piston???

When the rear of the block broke out, it broke the balance shaft which caused the gear to lock up and strip off the teeth on the timing belt.. whihc bent some valves... :l

So after all of that, Engine, Head and tranny (which something broke when the motor locked up cuz in gear it rolls like its on neutral) need to be replace.. When it rains it pours..

That's some real carnage there. Any idea what caused this?

Most likely the center diff blew out. Obviously the car didnt go that far so the rest of the transmission could possibly be ok, unless the center diff drive gear is stripped, then the counter shaft is toast.

Stock internals? How much power?

I don't see the problem here everything looks normal to me... :confused:

If its in reverse it holds the car from rolling like it would if it were in a forward gear. It would be nice if the tranny was still ok but the way things have been looking im gonna assume its not so i cant be upset.. lol

stock internals. was supposed to be rebuilt(by previous owner).. so maybe poor assembly? didnt make much power or as much as I would think a scm6152e would make. compression tested low when I got the car.. 390awhp @ db. (shootout mode was 456.7awhp) was quick enough to beat my friends 05 cbr600rr with a passenger in my car tho!!!

I can take a look at it for you if you wish.

Ill probably pull it apart and try and learn the tranny so I know for next time what to do.

thanks tho.. I may ask questions.

if it makes you feel better, that turbo on my old setup was 371 awhp on db's dyno on 111. 29x something on pump. low boost. Man, that was back when you had the stang still!
