Kaboooyaaa !!!!!!!!
 

This is what I wife sent me a picture of this morning. She saw it on Facebook. Anyone knows any more details. I have seen some motors tore apart, but nothing like this....

I heard of cracked engine blocks but this one takes the cake. Looks like the upper oil pan got thrashed too, I'd like to know more details too.

My buddy is a big Vette man. He pointed this out to my wife and she sent it to me. I always tell him how strong 2JZ motors are, he thought it was funny.

Lol wow.. No iron block just breaks in half unless there is a ton of stress, must have been mostly user error.

My first thought was a 200 shot of NOS. I wish I knew first hand what happened. I am rather curious.

Someone probably purposely split that block. It was possibly already trashed and they just thought it'll be cool to go Moses on it and post a pic..

Must have taken some major effort there, I would think that didn't happen in the car, but I bet if you keep dropping it from high enough with an engine lift it would eventually split somewhere.

Maybe they dropped it off the Chinese harbor freight hoist? Haha j/k I used the $99 one forever.

Looking at the pic, it is obvious what happened. The oil pan has a hole it and all the oil must have leaked out.

I would cry :egads:

Hmm I thought I seen this picture in someone's build thread a long time ago, not sure if it was on here or supraforums.

That's supraforums type carnage. Prob wouldn't have happened if they'd have filled the block with cement.

Stock Main cap broke car was making about 1100whp automagic car..

Ali-it happened in the car last year a couple days before WCF at MIR.

It's a built motor , the vibration from the crank killed it at higher rpm...

wow for that to happen in the car is impressive, wouldn't want to be driving that when it went.

the AE86 El humilde which runs 6.40's cracked a block in half like that as well. Its not unheard of but you have to put it through serious abuse to break an iron block in half like that.
