Default Hole-y Cow!!

Check out the hole in my old engine. You can see right through it when it is standing upright.

As far as I know - no NOS. I bought the car about 5 weeks before it blew. Engine had 266K. I think the previous owner knew that it was going south when he sold it to me. I tried to baby it as long as I could, but I didn't think I would have something like this happen.
