That rod and journal got pretty hot. How do you figure it was a hydraulic issue?

Don't have much to offer but moral support, but if I can help let me know. 
Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

When an engine kicks over with a full cylinder, (previous firing piston, not starter)
it deforms the upper bearing. It's just a matter of time before it spins the bearing.

That's not right. From the pictures anyone can CLEARLY see it was an oil pan failure.

I would have expected 200 passes without taking it apart. I usually can't leave the engine alone that long. I will put main studs in it and have the main bores touched up while it's at the shop. Milodon 340 center sump pan for sale. 40 passes in a pump gas 340. Needs work.

I'm amazed at what the scat I beams can do. That's a revver! Makes me feel a lot better about using them in my 408. Here's to a speedy recovery.

I picked up the block from the shop yesterday. It didn't require the sleeve. Another .020" honed from the bore cleaned it up surprisingly well. Only 2 visible "flicks" and well below ring travel. White specks are just lint. BIG 349.6" engine for 2011
