YEP i know
if its not one thing its another....
i looked at oil and didn't see any shiny metal in it so its gotta be okay...lol
when car started with the miss i was 3 miles from home so did not drive very far,but still damage was done...
I had one lifter and one lobe go on the cam on one of our motors.
The general consensus was “The oil filter will catch it”
NOT
The metal showered on to two rods at the crank destroying the rod bearings and crank both.
Also scored the cylinders from crap flying off the crank.
It did this before the metal ever had a chance to get filtered.
