I promised pics of the autopsy, but the motor was hauled off to scrap yesterday. I do have the pics of the holy block to share.

A little back story for this here (http://teamzx2.com/showthread.php?t=4923).

Enjoy! The new motor is in a running great with the Fidanza flywheel added at the same time. All thanks to crazy34.

Actual it could have been. It ran great on 3 cylinders. It also fired up, idled, and did a burnout when Ed unloaded it.

I'm surprised no one suggested JB Weld.

It's amazing how much abuse a closed deck iron block can take. What is more impressive you didn't shear the crank...

Second motor to the same thing. Both still ran fine on 3 cylinders. I just left an oil trail behind me for some reason though.

Nothin like a well ventilated block.
