[QUOTE="mikedjames, post: 648089, member: 27363"] I know I am late to the party but when my own build engine did that on one cylinder, the reason for the conrod through the crank case was a snapped valve head. IE reusing a part that looked OK when I rebuilt the engine. The valve was in one piece then. So this incident might just be paying the price of using reused parts in a recon engine, bad luck combined with "getting a good price" [/QUOTE]
