Like nunchucking through the block happened, and it probably finished the rod off, but I bet the bend caused the internal stress on the piston and ripped the bottom of the piston to pieces and then it all went downhill from there.

Well there's your problem right there..

Well if nursing doesn’t end up working out for you, you can always become a hand model.

*Edit*.....or you can always PRETEND to be a hand model working at Vandalay Hand Modeling Agency.

You could always keep the twin and wait until there's a crate electric motor available.

A crate electric in this platform would be sweet. 200hp would be like 400hp with electric motor torque.
