Here's what the 4/7 journal looks like.

You blew that up legit.

the cylinder wall is impressive.

I've got a block and a crank, but the cranks need to be a standard SBC (2.1/2.45 journal diameter, 3.48 stroke) piece, I'm not sure what the 283's use for cranks.

They're small journal, 3" stroke.

Aaah. Yep. Won't work.

I wonder if I can sleeve it!? lol

Looks like I wanted to perform its own 4/7 swap...

That thing blew up nasty. When I blew mine up last year I took it out of gear as fast as I could and was able to salvage some of it. I pulled this out of the big hole in the side of the oil pan.

God damn! What happened first, broken crank, or everything else?

God damn! What happened first, broken crank, or everything else?

It was a mangled mess inside, no way to really tell. Broken rods, broken block, broken pistons, broken crank, etc.

The back story is fuzzy as well. This is a 302/t5 combo in a thunderbird lemons car, and was an arrive-and-drive guy racing with a friend of mine that is a member here but seldom posts. Likely a 3-4 shift turned into a 3-2 oops and a hell of an over-rev. Or he may have pulled a Cole Trickle.

OUCH! Stock stuff doesn't like those missed shifts.
