Yes, and from the intake into the combustion chambers and then KABLAMM. Water does not compress like air does so the pressure has to go somewhere. In this case through the block :\

this happened off limonite in norco..near corona. i had on an injen cai, and there was a big puddle in the road, so i drove on the left side of the road to avoid it, but there was oncoming traffic so as i was cutting back into my lane i caught the end of the puddle, and sucked up a decent amount of water. i didn't get the pleasure of hearing any noises, i was only at like 2k rpm and the motor just shut off. and yeah, theres no resleeving that block, the other end of the rod made that big hole, took a chunk out of the bottom of the sleeve, and made another hole in the back of the block which i couldn't get a picture of yet

What you gonna do man? That hole is ******* HUGE!!!! Last time I checked Darton or Golden Ealge didn't fix blocks.

You gonna just look for a B18C long block or something?
