Update on "worst day ever" D15 blowed-up
I changed my SN because I am getting rid of my 1G, previously "Autocratic_1st_Gen"
The update, I pulled the motor today. Everything was f-ed up. The rod even took out the oil pan! Lots of holes and bent the hell out of the mount. I pulled the bearings out, and they looked bad. The top one has a 3/4" long full width shiny spot. The piston has NO DAMAGE to the top of it. The first ring and ring land are in 100% perfect condition. The next ring is missing pieces and its ring land is punched up, the oil ring is totaled, as is everything below it. I believe this means that there was NO detonation, the rod siezed and then took out the piston and everything else.
I just pulled the pan a couple weeks before this to drill for the oil return and cleaned it out real real good. There was about 1/2 cup of aluminum/metal dust, extremely fine stuff, in the pan today. Would that dust be from the destruction, or would that be more likely to be the cause of the destruction. I know it could not be normal wear, because I only drove about 500 miles from when I cleaned the pan till now. I am kind of suspicius (sp?) since my tire got slashed that morning.

Most likely the shavings are from the engine when it destructed.

Sorry to hear that.
Not to add to your grief, but I'm sure all of us would love to see pictures. We're sick like that.
