[TrD3sgte94]

i was driving on beltway 8 E. in houston and i was changing lanes at 65mph and all of a sudden smoke and flames came out from under the hood i pulled over and ran but the fire had put its self out and now im left with a crater size whole in my block and everything such as the rods,crankshaft, etc. is exposed and cv axle also blew out of tranny. is this unheard of or has it happened to anyone else here? i need a new engine fast for real cheap. mostly a 7afe but if i could swap in a 5sfe or a 3sge or whatever for just as cheap let me know anything helps in my situation i juss need a new motor for now and i dont care what kind as long as i can afford it "Limited Budget".

thnx wess-

im sorry i didnt get back with yall sooner but ive been away and i realize that the 3sgte is a difficult swap and i only look on that in the future after i have lots of money haha but i have found a 7afe for 600 so i might juss do that this would be my third 7afe the first one i had threw a rod bc i didnt check oil and it was low, 2nd one i was driving 55 and it threw a rodbearing once again but i should have had oil bc i didnt have a leak and i had juss got an oil change 2 days before so im guessing it was burning oil, and this one i did have oil i had checked it before coming home from the mall right before it happened so im clueless i know it threw a rod im just curious on to how this may have happened my only guess would be a leak(i park in grass so i wouldnt see one if i had one) that maby sparked up on the exhaust manifold and sent a spark inside the block but that might be a crazy logic so im not sticking by it and thanks for all advice but i still havent found the reason wich is what im looking for anyone have ideas to maby what went wrong. it made a noise when starting kinda like a loose rod bearing but as soon as it cranked it sounded smooth and ran great this problem went on for almost a month after putting it in i thought maby it was the starter going bad but whatever it obviously wasnt.

wess-
