Engine Blown?? Huge crack..pics..

[Boss 351]

No way to tell until the engine is on the stand and opened up. If the cylinders are fine and not worn and crap, a simple hone and new rings would do the job. But God knows what broke in there and what things look like. You can use cheap Speed-pro pistons, they will do the job and aren't too expensive. You should give RPM racing in laval a call (450-978-6637) they know their Mustangs and could have used blocks for you? If not there's Zeke's, they awesome at engine building (http://www.zekesauto.com/en/index.html).

i have a friend he has a used block he got for 400 $..all dressed... but he doesnt have a car to put it in..i might be able to convince him to sell it to me...i could use that and build from their... where r u going to do ur machining???

 

[Boss 351]

Either Zeke's or APM diesel in Cowansville. If you need help, call me PM me for #

 

[Mr. Rustypwnz]

the engine is toast, the heads i almost guarantee are good, find a good explorer engine(used w/low miles) and go from there, they range anywhere from 100-1200 in good shape and is drop in, If you want to know everything bout the swap pm me and ill give all the details!!

 

[Modular2v]

you would be better off just putting a new long block in it to be honest

When my engine blew, it was the crankshaft. it cracked right in half.

 

[savegoodautonfg]

if wondering where to get new long block. get it from promar engines. i got mine last year. its great.

 

[Georgie]

ok..my engine is ****ed...i took oof the timing cover...chain is broken, block cracked and crank as well...im go take some pics right now and show u guys...i also found some huge pieces of metal in the oil pan...i cant see more cuz theirs just a small opening... brb with the pics

 

[Georgie]

The Sproket for my cam is crooked..its not paralell to the block...does this mean my cam is fudged up too??

 

[Boss 351]

ouch... time to look for a short block :/

 

[Georgie]

****ing carnage I love that, nice job man. TIME TO MAKE FLOWER POTS!

No biggie though man, you can get a stock bottom for like 200$

 

[Mike92GT]

My buddy did the exact same thing to his engine last year. I will pretty much guarantee that you also have bent pushrods and valves. He did. I wouldn't risk re-using the cam either.

 

[Georgie]

so all this happend from compression? i guned it in first..then let off the gas without going in neutral..i think i was somewhere at 5000rpm..im not sure cuz my rmp gauge doesnt work..

Yikes, I just looked at all the pics... no good. FWIW, I swapped in an Explorer short block (got the long block, but sold the GT40P heads off of it), so I ended up only paying somewhere in the neighborhood of $200 after it was all said and done. You'll need your oil pump pickup tube, oil pan, and a new front cover, but everything else should swap over directly.

I will sell a 302 engine soon to help pay for a 351 build
