Re: Did i blow a piston?

well there was no spun bearings and the rod bearings where fine but the main bearings shot to hell and i found out what caused the oil pressure problem a bolt on the cam came loose on the oil pressure side

but here some pics

Re: Did i blow a piston?

Well i put new main bearings in then i started it up and it ran for about two min's then it seized up

. but i am not out i have another b20a but it needs pistons so i am going to take the pistons out of the other b20a that has the bad crank and in the b20a that has the bad pistons so two make one.
