suprisingly it didnt, lol, the car was up on jackstands when it happened, so all the oil was in the rear sump on the pan and none poured out when it blew. As i went to start it, it turned over like 2 times, i heard it fire up, then BOOM, and i heard metal pieces hit the ground. i cant remember if i shut it off or if it died. i thought i blew my headers apart, but then i saw the metal was cast aluminum and i looked and saw the oil pan. The Bang it made was loud as hell, almost like as if it was a little louder than open headers. Im still lookign at the possibility the crankcase filled with fuel or fuel vapor and ignited somehow since i cant find any botom-end damage other than the block and oil pan. weird.. On wed, itll be getting towed to the shop. so i figure within a week, i should have the motor apart more.
