  Either I'm having trouble with the Internetz, or those are blown pictures of engines, not pictures of blown engines... (just getting empty browser placeholder boxes)

  Pics work in the preview, board software interprets "2%3f" as "?" when submitted, breaking all the hotlinks.

  How about a transfer case?

  Screw it... i rehosted.

  Try these on for size.

  This is a good sign, right?

  

  Something isn't quite right...
  

  Don't think this gap is within factory specs.
  

  Oh my. That's not gone well.
  

  Good news! The rods are forged!
  

  MOMMY!!!
  

  Yummy.
  

  All because...

  I don't have pictures of the inside of the engine, but this is what was sitting in the bottom of the oil pan when I pulled the broken 7MGE out of my MKIII.
