Oh my loving God https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ot-GbhaeaDw This is by far the worst engine explosion I have ever seen. the contents of the oil pan is AMAZING. Straight up rotating assembly mulch. The ends of like 6 of the rods are completely, utterly annihilated, melted, flattened, mangled. He has to shovel a solid two quarts of oil-coolant-metal mud/gravel out of the pan by hand and run it through the parts washer like a gold prospector panning in a stream to even have a chance of identifying any of it. Oh, the crank is completely broken in half and like 3 main bearing caps are no longer connected to the block.

Elviscat posted:Nah Taylor (other dude you met at my place years ago) and I were just discussing this and we're pretty sure it was in a manual transmission truck since there's no way it would keep running with even a momentary reduction in throttle after losing a few of those cylinders if it was auto. He thinks 9 and 10 let loose first (farthest from the oil pump) and it puked a bunch of poo poo into the bearings at the front after that, I was guessing front cylinders but he's got a lot more experience on this stuff. Guessing it was either coasting downhill for a while still in gear, or the owner just had that motor put in (thus the warranty tags on it) recently and was like gently caress it, I hear bad noises, I'm signing the death warrant on this pile of poo poo engine so they definitely have to replace it again, and just drove it till it stopped moving.

What the gently caress has to happen to an engine to make it violently poo poo itself to death like that?

# ? Mar 6, 2023 04:06 |

It takes for something to let go, but not something so important that it stops the engine dead right then and there. Lose 2/4 cylinders and the fun stops immediately; lose 2/10, and you've still got 80% of the motor powering through, spinning and chewing and digesting the bits it's lost.

# ? Mar 6, 2023 04:16 |

All you can say for certain is that the broken crank would've been one of the last things, since at that point the cam would stop spinning and there'd be no way for the engine to actually run anymore... aside from possibly "coasting" downhill in gear. On the heads, I get the feeling he sells those sorts of things as cores only - wash it, make sure there's no cracks or other damage that's not economically viable to repair, sell it to someone with the expectation that the buyer is going to rebuild the heads.

# ? Mar 6, 2023 05:04 |
Yeah I didn't watch the whole thing (just skimmed to the good bits) so I'm sure I was missing context about what exactly he hopes to accomplish by a whole teardown at this point. Once you see there's that amount of damage you'd just be telling your customer "ok so a new crate V10 lists for X amount in the catalog" There can't be a single component in that engine worth salvaging for any amount of money exceeding the time put into tearing it down. Unless the youtube views are that valuable.

He also seems like the type of guy who does stuff for fun that serves absolutely no purpose at all. Remember this is a guy who got a car engine that was set running and his exact words were," I like a challenge. Even if it is a waste of time." Though at least in this video it served a purpose as the engine wasn't wrecked like in that video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-DW7YzzyYs

That Miata video was something else. I would have never had the balls to just straight up hook up a battery to something that had been on fire, and was actively trying to become on fire again once it got power. I don't think I could personally trust the engine out of it without a rebuild (every gasket on that thing is probably trash, no idea if the head is warped from the heat of the fire, etc), but that was seriously impressive that he managed to get it to run. You know the video traffic sends his yard tons of traffic too - both sales and cores. Yeah, he's funny, a bit informative, it's impressive seeing the level of carnage he finds at times - but ultimately the videos are essentially free* advertisements for his business. *aside from his time, and the money he drops on cores - and you know he makes it back and then some 99% of the time randomidiot fucked around with this message at 18:11 on Mar 6, 2023 |

Yeah, he strips engines down for parts both to sell as good used and to sell as cores. From what I can tell most of his business is well known engines but he does videos on random stuff that gets requested in the comments on the videos he posts, and some of those that are really blown up he gets for basically scrap price specifically for a video if enough people request it. He seems very selective about what he'll sell and what gets scrapped. I'd feel pretty comfortable buying from him. I'd probably toss a few valves and maybe guides in those 8.0 heads, clean up any burrs and dings from the pistons hitting to avoid hot spots, and run them as long as they're flat. They're 80lb of cast iron and the gaskets were still sealed fine, 99% chance that's all they'd need. But everything in that bottom end is trash. E: oh, who else noticed the cam being way way longer than it actually is? He looped a section of the video there so it's like a V16 or V20 cam
