I've broken 3 small blocks and one big block. The big block did more damage than any of the small blocks did. Broke the cam like yours too. Just build it bigger and badder this time.

Did these replace the 440 source rods that you were running and having problems with?
Must see more when you tear this motor down.

I was in the stands when you broke. Sorry to see that. Looks like an expensive repair. Best of luck with the rebuild. See you next year.
