That's my 1.5 block with some $15 junkyard header and cheap intake w/ MPFI swap.


This is what happens when the connecting rod gets at a tweaked angle and meets the block.

Well, project Mini Me is now on its way. Can't wait for it to be finished.

I actually knew a guy who JB welded the inside of his cylinder wall where it cracked and he drove it for another year, at which point I moved had out of town!

That's gotta be one of the worst feelings you can get from staring into a engine bay! I actually pulled the oil pan on my old 400 small block (I was a chevy guy once) and had the 3 pieces of the crank fall out! I never knew Chevy made a 3 piece crank? I also had a BMW throw a rod thru the side of the block. Strange feeling looking into the engine and seeing the parts laying on the ground below. At least now you get to start over, if that's really an exciting option.

 

LOL, yeah my dad works on domestics but he's never blown his engine in his 69 camaro heh. Yeah, Im looking forward to rebuilding a mini me for the car. Now i can toss in the SI transmission and fix all the other stuff I've been having a problem with In about a couple weeks I should have a full MPFI swap ready to sell on honda-tech.

dont worry about it a d16 will run fine with a hole in the block jp good luck on the buildup
