Repo Talon...Blown Motor

Those rod bearing surfaces don't look terrible, wonder why it threw a rod? Maybe hydrolocked and bent first?

Yeah everything looks super good, and the fact that the oil looked a bit milky would lead me to believe that it was hydrolocked, yeah.

Got my first bit of parts, hopefully later this week i can get everything else.

Have you ordered cases already?
Can you tell me the part number they sold you?

Also while you have the engine apart, you might as well put the updated parts in the sub trans as well.

I simply had my local honda dealer order the stuff for me, soooo... no i dont have the cases yet so cant tell you that yet, as for the sub trans, i was really considering that since its on the bench anyway, like you said!

The cases have been updated for better mount bracing. I'm not sure if they dont have the old part number anymore or if they are still selling them.
