Too much torque - this is what happens

[Thuppu]

Guys, you killing me.

I think this is what I might find when we open the engine today

This is what happened on stock rods on a 16v where after fitment of an ultra light flywheel and the mapper forgetting to set a redline

My favourite rod was number 3 purely because it wasn't there.

the mapper forgetting to set a redline

I hope he paid for the engine.

What's the story behind that?

A spot of Arctic Circle cabin fever, boredom, a bottle of Malteser in the freezer and a nice new copy of Photoshop.

What's the story behind that?

It's the connecting rod out of a slow speed two stroke (probably) marine diesel engine. The bottom end is the mangled part and the cross head is the other end. Looks to have been a lot of heat through the bottom end bearing, but that could have possibly been when it was being cut out of the engine.

It could have been caused by a leak into a cylinder going unnoticed and the engine not being turned over with the indicator cocks open before starting - hyrdaulic-ing the engine.
