Damn That sucks, you gonna fix it or replace it? Might be able to sleeve that.

Naw, It split the webbing in the block around the main bearings. I have been wanting to try out this 500 inch Caddy engine I freshened up last year. Got to get an adapter for the t4oo to the d300.

Pour a can if engine restore in that and wheel it.

That'll buff out?

 

[nctom]

Its a little too far gone for Restore and buffing!

It ran for 20 minutes. He kept putting more H2o in it to get home, after a while the crank was churning in it like a boat propeller. Looks like a milk shake with cast iron sprinkles.
