Please don't put yourselves out folks, I really didn't want a fundraiser to be honest, but obviously amazed by the generosity we have here of course so again thank you!

Macca mate, this weekend the engine is coming out to find out what happened and fingers firmly crossed the head is salvageable so that will determine the next step.

I'm positive thinking so excited to find out!

Dont worry AB. I don't think anyone will be putting themselves out mate. We just chip in what we can.
If you need any help with anything, let me know. Sourcing or picking up parts. Let me know.

We're local mate, if you can't pick up something I'm sure someone else can.

Without knowing to much, I would say at a guess that the head would be fine, doesn't sound like it dropped a valve, but once it's off I would send it off to get tested and resurfaced regardless.

Yes mate we took all the head bolts out and missed the run up the middle. Farker wouldn't budge 😜 Rocker off in 30 seconds and we were all over it. Was a good day.

Head looks good actually.. He should get it dressed and crack tested but looks viable.

Righto. It definatly needs to be checked, the correct sequence for loosening the bolts was ignored. Fingers crossed it's not warped.

All of you own a manual

Holy crap! For real? Rusty did (late arrival) mention knowledge of this from his old man's life lessons. Such knowledge, unfortunately out of our skills :-(
No bullcrap, please do get your butts down here ASAP, my buy ;-) !!

Cheers mate, yes we just stripped it off. Yes I didn't know that and yes Rusty did mention that. I really had zero expectation that this head would bolt onto anything without being checked and decked anyway. The valves need to be checked in #2 at least and probably worth re-seating them.

It was a pretty big day yesterday, we got a lot done. None of us had ever taken an engine out before nor stripped one down to this degree.

I've done a head gasket alone with a manual and certainly from go to whoow straight by the book. If this was a head gasket job then the service manual would have been open on the battery for sure!

But, it's a pretty Big But, THIS THING IS FARKED!

here are some pics I took yesterday. This engine has experienced Catastrophic Failure. I can't imagine using anything on this engine again without forensic testing to confirm viability. She is knacker led gents.

Some pics!!

Yes that is a Masdive hole on the block Behind the Brand new 12mm pump!!! Only the mounting bracket of the pump saved it from direct impact! Bloody lucky!! There is damage on the back of the pump mount!!

http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum.../2016/10/9.jpg

The failure was in #2 piston and the Conrod disintegrated and blew out both sides of the block parallel with the crank. It also spat forward into the big end bearing on #1 and blew out the left side of #1 too!!! The Crank has taken significant impact. The Piston is molten and Gooorn!!

The Conrod has spun empty on the crank and sliced a trench across the sump which is pretty cool too.
