A holy block, Not the religious kind.

[Adydas]

I think this is a case where pictures speak louder than words..

For bonus points can anyone tell me what kind of Block this is? Gen 3? Gen2? St185 st205? i cant tell its not quite the same as mine.. but its not quite the same as a st205 unit... Im stumpteded



Figured id share what looks to be an impressive block blow out on a 3sgte.

[Silent Knight]

Yep, can't expect much more from those gud ol' 3S 4Bangas...

*edited out bs *

[Mr Revhead]

oh wait.

its an st165 one.

[Adydas]

Ah, $&#$% bum please tell me the gearbox from it mounts to a st185 as a temp job while i fixy mine.

[diss7]

Just throw in some motor-up, and it'll be good as new.
That stuff is amazing!

[sergei]

That block is off ST165. The gearbox should mount, I run ST205 one on my 165, but watch out, if there is that sort of damage on the block, I wander what happend to gearbox...
Can I have banjo bolts off that oil cooler?
This sort of destruction is similar to hydaulic lock (drowning the intake in water while engine is running, in this case at high rpms)..

[Adydas]

Say you drove into a lake whilst ringing it out for example ?

[Dell'Orto]

Or if you're one of those people who have their pod filters hanging down really low or out the side of the guard and run through a big puddle

[EarthwurmJurm]

or pretend its a honda and take a slash all over it

As a fellow ST205 owner discovered a short while back. Wheel arch line had been removed (probably not put back following a rangi front repair) and while driving through a large puddle, nice volume of water into the intake system and hey presto - one screwed motor! Rods ended up doing an extremely impressive impression of a bunch of bananas
