Message: [QUOTE="wetnsloppy4x, post: 237704, member: 395"] I'm looking at these pics on my phone so maybe I'm missing some detail, but I thought I'd float this idea out there.... FWIW, that looks more like a catastrophic piston failure to me. It looks like the wrist pin split the pin boss and took the bottom half of the piston with it. The rod looks like it may have just been collateral damage. Can someone point out in the pics the failure mode to disprove this theory? I'm certainly not arguing that those rods look a little on the skinny side, it just appears that there is a pretty clean fracture around the bottom half of that piston. From what I can see, it doesn't look like the rod beat it to death from underneath. [/QUOTE]
