im on the line waiting for tree to drop when one of the tech guys come running over and stops me.  there was oil underneath me... a lot of it.. not thinking i throw it in reverse and back it up as fast as possible to the side.. bad idea... BOM.. somehow after my 3rd pass the block had split down the middle as did the sleeve.. leaking oil making a big gap no oil.. long story short i destroyed my awesome SOHC and have not yet to finish after a long year of being dead
