ya it milkshaked the motor,, not sure what happened first but the #1 rod bearing spun,broke the connecting rod, broke the oil pump in half,put a hole in the oil pan,,,yet the small end of the rod at the wrist pin managed to turn blue even tho it was obviously severed.. im alil suspect on that pin..  not my boat tho or  motor, i just have to try and help fix it, we're headed to big river on the 22nd and the hurt boat was supposed to be there.. im not a ford guy, my boat has a bbc in it, and happy to know it can also be used as a tow rig!! and again water was so bitchin thursday,,, usually by 1 oclock it trys to sink my boat!!i ran it flat out across the middle at 3 oclock!great day minus the jet boat blow up! lol
