You could aways drive the racecar

 

heres the pics..go to this link

blown 5.3

 

damn dude, you broke it good.
good luck on the 6L man!

 

yea no **** it man..hell i had my *** all prepped up for my girlfiend to chew it off and she actually took it pretty good, she said she has no comment that im payin for it and hang up..i was really surprised

 

wow, thats a pretty good reaction, mine wouldnt have bothered to hang up and just flipped her lid right there

 

Mine would've called me a ***** for wanting just a 6.0. She would try to talk me into a 408. Seriously.

Are you going to tak it apart to look at the block and piston and everything? I'm curious at to why it failed where it did.

 

yea i got it pulled out here at work and ill be messin with it through out the day..from what i can see through the block is just the rod came apart..i had 111 octane gas in it so i shouldnt have been pre-ignition..

 

I had a 500ci Caddy motor I build (for a stock car ) that broke like that, only it broke the rods on either side of #3 main. Tells me I had a oiling problem with #3, cuz that main bearing feeds both of those rods. But the rods where still bolted to the crank, just broke off like yours.

 

thats a big motor..i wish i could stick the motor out of my race car in this pos..500 N/A horsepower...then stick 150 shot on that..

 

If you really wanna get creative I got a 455 Rocket that you could stick in your truck...
