the motor didnt blow thats lack of or no oil changes at all. i had a 4.6l triton come in just like that his tesioners were so sludged up the had 0 hydraulic pressure i replaced the tensioners and both his chains and told the guy it may not last and to change his oil every 1000 miles lol still running for him tho. could have fucked the motor if the tensioner failed but most of the time they dont (and this obviously isnt mavens motor its a ******* customer

but if you look at his head the intake valves are extended and parallel to surface of the head. they are supose to be on a 45 degree angle from the surce, his pistons some how struk them or the high heat caused them to bend like that.

the forged rod going through the front of my block wasn't my fault however though. the shop that built the motor neglected to put rod bearings in on the number 4 cyl. long story short it seased up on the crank and sent parts of the rod throught the front of my block knocking out the knox sensor. lol.

These are Aveo 1.6L E-tecs. NOT my engine, jobs I am doing.
First first pic....128k miles, 3 oil changes, no belt changes, valve followers(buckets) seized in head, locked valves, locked cam, spun and destroyed belt.
2nd engine, 30k miles, intake cam jumped time for unknown reason, destroyed all 8 valves.
No one noticed these arent Cobalt engines.....wtf, come on guys.

Both pics are easy, first pic has direct acting cams....we have finger followers, second pic: has EGR, intake manifold doesnt hand below head, heater hose coming off middle of intake side of head, no slot for chain, I know the carnage is pretty awesome, but i didnt think it was that distracting, I thought somebody would catch it. 
I love the I spent so much on suspension comment....
