it happens, as you said, atleast the underhood damage was minimal. A member one here had their whole top of their motor burn up real fast because of a fuel leak. My old college teacher had a '68 340 'Cuda notch that he burned up the motor in a quarter mile because he overdrove the pulley on his alternator when he did his serpentine belt setup he home brewed, he was pretty upset and even sold the car because he couldn't look at his mistake. He owned the car 20~ years previous to doing that to it.
