The original 350 out of my blazer broke the cam. The PO must have wound the poor tired engine out in Granny gear, 4 low while playing off road. Cam didn't break first. But it did break the cam into mulitple chunks from the broken rods swinging around. At most I ended up with a 4 inch section as a garage paper wieght. Dang thing was spitting lifters out of the pan when DirtyLarry brought it to his house on a trailer.

Pretty specatactular engine carnage. I took a chunk of a connecting rod cap, drilled a hole in it and made it into a key chain. Mostly as a reminder of what can happen if I get too stupid with the skinny pedal. Might recommend that to Robert.
