ok after 3mnths i still havent got my car back, ive had some serious problems with mechanic motivation, im sure some of you guys know what i mean or have had this problem before, main problem is hes such a nice guy and he has so much on a hate slave driving him...
Finally my old engine is out and as promised ive added a few pics of the mess the rod made to the Block/Sump!

the Rod just seems to have snapped in half and and there is nothing left on the big-end than a small stump
I will add some more pics as i get it stripped down more and someone can try and explain to me what seems to have happened!
sorry to drag this topic up again!
