I have a 460 and a c-6 tranny for ya since the engine is out 
Sucks to see that though man
My brother rebuilt a motor once when he was like 17. Didn't torque anything on the motor down. You think your motor looked bad lol. He drove it about 3 blocks and the head popped off, hit the hood. A piston dropped through the oil pan and hit the ground hehe. Needless to say he never tried rebuilding a motor again

did ya hit some RR tracks while hogin down on it?.. usually hitting a hard bump while accelerating hard can cause that... rear tires probably lost contact with the road for a split second while you was on the gas.. and the abrupt stop of the freespinning tires snapped it.... used to happen alot in the Dirt Track days.... good to see ya have a block linned up allready.... how many miles were on that block Jeremy?...

it was an 87 block and crank that i had bought used and had machine work done. I bought the crap in 98, so who knows how many miles were on it then. I myself put 60k more on it after rebuilding it all.
Was no bumps, I winded out 2nd, hit 3rd was going for a little bit, heard some noise really quick them a bang, and that was it. Happned in like 2 seconds

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
