Motor teardown (CARNAGE!)

[BoostedGT480]

ok so most know I blew my engine almost 3 months ago. Ive been waiting for my new engine to come in and I was in the process of graduating college, etc so I never got the time to pull the engine.

Well, yesterday, I got the motor pulled out of the car. Tonight I had to honors of tearing her down to see what she looks like inside.This is my first engine teardown ever, so seeing the carnage was crazy. I know some of you have dealt with this before, but it was actually pretty cool to see it all. And also to see how everything in the engine goes together.

Anyways, on to the pics.

Nice set of pistons you have there!

I'm SO sorry for I'm about to say.

As soon as I saw the oil baffle plate, I started laughing my ass off! I've done that once or twice myself over the years! So I know your pain. I bet you can laugh about it now, but not at first. LOL! You did one HELL of a good job at destroying that motor, you should be proud! You've not owned a sports car until you've grenaded an engine and built a new one to replace it!

I love how that piston is pretty much disintegrated thats crazy!

 

[Riptide]

well if your not as dumb as me, you should be good. I knew I was at the breaking point and kept racing on the stock block at 483whp

I appreciate it, i looked up just now what they do! I have never heard of them before, and its neat what they are designed for!

I foresee a forged rotating assembly in your future! Good luck!

Ahh I see, how long did you get away with that though? I don't plan on ever passing 450rwhp. lol

it lasted a good while. I would say the motor had over 10k miles with the SC and it was at the track, ALOT

 

[fdjizm]

Well in that case I would call it pretty damn stout and it lived an awesome life lol

 

[red_baron06]
