heres some more pictures of the block.
This is what happens when you don't torque down rod caps properly    HEAD!  here's what is left of the piston    Heres the block completely stripped down! well, for the most part.

Meh, it'll buff right out.
On a side note I LOVE the collection you've got happening in your back yard!

less than two weeks left until i go and pick up the other motor! once i get it, im going to tear it down and see what the knock is coming from and at that point, im thinking of going big or go home. wiseco pistons and eagle rods keep screaming my name.
 also, i'll be in the hunt for a CT-26 turbo here soon. mine is pretty much toast...
