How olds the oil? And do you red line in much... looks like its had some serious redline action combined with detonation.

Grab a F6 motor if your gonna keep it or just put a wreckers NA motor in, stick the red rocker cover on it and trade her in... dodgy but who cares when your trading in ;)

auto?? or manual??

most that have thrown rods have been autos.. actually dont know of any manuals that have.

would be interesting to know if manuals have thrown a rod?? any1??

could this be as the manual releases pressure constantly and the auto just keeps on pushing?

xlnt6 bent at least one rod with 360rwkw's when he missed a gear and over revved the engine.
