Default Blazed SS up in smoke ! FML !!

Well I was having a good day until I was passing a car on the hi way at 70 and 1 of my piston rods broke and went through the side of my block .honestly it was like you see on NASCAR ther was a big pop and nothing but smoke out of the back of the car . So no car stereo show it took 4 hours to get the car back home .

Damn man, that's awful. Hope everything works out for you. At least it's not what I thought it was...when I read your title I thought it may have caught fire.
