I feel like Samari could be a player in this game, he's holding a couple of nice pocket aces...

Lmao the X was on it when he built it it was just out of break in.

The broken steel sleeve came out with the piston in it. Supposedly happened in the 9k range

Not sure how they managed this one looks like some water was introduced. 2013 3.4 300 Etec.

one of those 4 stroke grey motors that never break

Guy said he was "outside just looking for bait" and it started to slow down.

**Onetime** · 01-03-2016, 05:26 PM

I've seen a lot of pistons like the ones being shown.

Reminds me me of one particular racer I use to build for. If the engine faltered or hiccuped or slowed down he would just put his foot into it more to "clear it out". Never worked out but sure did destroy a lot of engines!

Never saved any of the Pistons or took pictures, oh well!

Holy smokes! More sleeves there than in my wife's closet!

I'm in the same boat never thought to take pics of real destroyed ones or piles of aluminum gravel surrounding a rod and pin. Any of the ones I do have pics of can't touch some of these that have been posted.
