Done split another cylinder wall darn it to heck!
« on: March 07, 2010, 02:36:38 AM »
At PIR again tonight, this time I brought the family out.

Swapped back to the 205/55/16 crap tires....

Pull a 12.55 @ 117.69 with a 2.1 60'... poop...

Wife wants to leave. C'mon, watch one more please?

I nail it... Its flipping perfect.

Then the #4 (I am betting) cylinder wall splits in 4th gear...... I keep the pedal to the metal...

Pull over at the end of the track, determine, yes, there is WATER everywhere, not oil. So I know I split the cylinder wall... Drive down the return lane and park.

My friend I was racing pulls up after getting his time slip (why would I want mine? I sucked ALL of 4th gear.)

"I think you want this"

60' 1.940
1/8 7.943
mph 91.75
1/4 12.499
mph 96.99

IF only the motor hadn't popped.  What if, what if, what if.......

Pistons should be fine.

I am betting the crack started on a heavy pull a month or so ago and I had some bad det on pump gas.

you need a sleeved block?  and to stop detonating on pump gas, eh?  I just hate to see this beast down, it should be shredding the streets.  Is it still twin charged or are you just running a turbo now?

This is my family wagon, not the twincharged wagon.

Yeah, I would like a sleeved block, but thats money I do not have....

This failure is in a section of the block that happens to even STI blocks...

This is the 2nd time I have split a cylinder wall.

This motor has had 3 sets of pistons in about 13-14 months...

I am going to fill the weak section in with a pin for support this time.

You're like the hotrex of subies, except you actually make it to the track.

I'm impressed at the timeslip but fuck - at least spend a few bones on a starters accounting class. You will learn that even with "future value" of money figured in, the interest paid on a small loan will completely offset the time & money replacing pistons & blocks. Even if they are cheap for you.


Even cheap Honda people plunk done the money once they realize there's a chance they'll be splitting sleeves.

Pinning is a bad idea, it does not work as advertised.  Cylinder balloons under cyl pressure and the pin... you get the idea.  The sleeve, instead of cracking horizontally, will crack at a right angle due to the pin and then go from there.

I'd do a 1.5-2.0" band of devcon right around the point the sleeve likes to crack.

I dont believe in block posting, filiiing, or blockguards.   The sleeve cracking is a function of the strength of the sleeve, attempting to stop it from moving wont stop it from happening.

   I dont agree with that.  It wont slow it down at all. If anything the change in the cooling of the cylinders/head will create hotspots increasing the likelyhood of cracking a sleeve.

Disagree, sort of.  I've seen it hold together very well in a couple motors, and the two the sleeves cracked in were still driveable enough that you could cruise the car home - while cracked they don't seperate and so coolant doesn't go anywhere, it just acts like a mild broken ring with oil smoke everywhere.  $35 and thirty minutes to devcon, vs $60-150 tow bill and 1-2.5 hours waiting on the truck.

Big caveat, most people pour their blocks too high - cylinder expands and splits lower down, and coolant flow at the top of the cylinder where it's hottest is important.

Well, I had a new motor in 4 days later, but it was making some awful noises....


Time went by....


I found the issue, dealt with it.....

Dailydevil is driving again....

But for now?  Its a fucking transportation wagon....   I need to store up some money if I need to build a real motor again!  My daily car is 8mpg Econoline with no seats for the kids....
