When **** hits the fan

No.5 upper rod bearing tell tale... detonation.
Blew piston ,wiped out the cylinder wall, bent the rod, windage tray, pan a tad... but the windage tray caught the brunt of the scattering....the rod hits the top of the bore and jammed it up if the chunk in the intermediate gear didnt....crank is tits, 6 pistons survived, one in bits... the other ...skirt broke off. Rubble in the pan, all the carnage you love to see just because it's interesting and rarely shared. Yeah I know... "where's the upper bearing shell ?" Well it's in the timing cover and I thought I snapped a pic but I didnt... so I'll go the garage in the morning and snap one of the upper no.5 rod bearing into copper. The 2 valves are junk... just the slightest, they were hung open from debris blowing through and spun 'tell was the roller wear marks were slanted while all others were in line front to back. More pics on the way.
My 318 did the same thing on the same 5 cylinder valve stem catched on the guide snapping stem from the base shattered hyper piston cracked cylinder in 5 places found stem in the exhaust pipe before the bend . Déja vu. You could make a cool coffee table and a story to tell !
