So I was driving around pulling this heavy ass trailer with my inline diesel motor. Well, I hit some dirt and the trailer dug in and I started building boost. Well, I watch my boost gauge go over 150PSI and then it happened. Its terrible, it might cost a little bit to fix. How much you think some new pistons/rods/crank/block/head will cost because I had to weld the head to the block in order for it to hold up to the pressures. I guess I found the weak point on my motor.

Thats awesome. Those turbo class tractor's are insane. And thats soo cool that those diesel engines have the removeable/replaceable cylinder sleeves.

Talk about catastrophic failure. From the look of it (especially the last picture) the block itself failed, ripping it in half.

Nothing like a motor blowing up with nothing between you but a winpy sheet metal "hood"
