I was up on a run with the car club and on the way back the motor got a really bad rod knock. i was about 5 mins away from the nearest store " I was out in the middle of no where". so i just took it slow and drove it to the store well like less then 500 feet from the store BOOM engine just shut off and peices go flying. so i get to the store and call a tow truck they say its going to be 300 dollars to get my car back to my house and it will be 3 hours till they can get there. F that so one of my friends had my good friend AAA FREE tow And they would be there in 3.5 hours i said ok wait 3.5 hours and get a free tow hell ya. waited and waited........ look at the block and see a whole the size of my fist in the side of the block. the motor isnt out yet but i got a new motor for $150 7mgte no more N/A hells ya. im building it and will put pictures up with the progress. i will also get some pics of the whole in the block as soon as i get the motor out.

Cheakin the bad out

Look at the oil spilling out

A few peices of my block and a rod

I will keep you guys up dated on the build.

The third pic makes a great background BTW.
the 3rd one on this page or of the first page. jbweld works great but i think the motor would run funny with a rod missing. i was looking at the block a little closer and i think there is a hole on the other side of the block as well. good time i really fucked it up im going to go take some pics and post them up for you guys.
