Tell me what to do
I bought a complete engine from a guy back in jan 09.
454 .030 over,nothing wild or crazy a nice simple combination.
Didnt get the car done till june and went to the track for the first time.
made 3 runs that day.
next time I went I made 2 runs.
didnt go again till october 09 and only made 1 run.
I went again on sat nov 7th,first run it ran ok, next run the engine exploded.
thats on the 8th run of a engine that the ad says was fresh with only 3 runs on it.
ad is off the system but I saved it in my computer.
Now that its apart I see where I was lied too.
ad claimed it was a eagle rotating assembly but the rods were stock GM.
main thing and what made it blow up was whoever put it together never checked the crank throw to piston clearence as almost all of the throws were hitting the pistons.
even on the 6 surviving pistons 4 of the 6 were being hit.
must have been hitting #8 so bad right under the wrist pin that the pin ripped out of the piston and the rest ,well you can figure that out.
everything in the bottom end is now junk,even the block.
looks like with money I can save the heads.
I wrote the guy and no answer.
I have his name,his name on here and a phone number and a city and a state.
tell me what to do.
thank you
