So is there a reason so many people are getting holes in there engine block of their 5 sfe engine? Im starting to think so. This happened to 2 of my engines. Finally I tore apart the bottom end and found out that the number one piston connecting rod was shattered. This happened to me twice, and i am seeing it all over the internet. whats the deal?
