So.....My motor seized. (PICS)
So my motor seized a week ago today and I finally took it apart. Some pictures are a little blurry.
:Just the over view after I pulled the head:
:Close up of the seized piston:
:The rod to the seized piston:
:Rod again:
:This is the culprit. Was found wedged between block and rod:
:A Couple pictures of the inside of the block where the rod bolt was wedged:
Can you say f***ed?!
Setup is/was a sleeved B20/Vtec Turbo on 8lbs.

That sucks. What brand of rods were those? Did you use a good torque wrench or stretch gauge during the install?

Stock B20 crank. It is a Type-R head. Head seems to have no damage.
