all I can say is WOW!! It is hard to believe the force that is gone on inside a block.the block gave up or the crank broke first not sure.

ive seen this same exact scenario at a speed shop, guy had all the components on his desk. all 5.0 stuff looked just like yours, crank broken down the middle with rod on it, bent rods etc... he said that the block cracked first and then the mains and then when the crank had nothing to sit on the forces were distributed unevenly which broke the crank like a twig. see what happens when parts are exposed to forces they are not designed for? its amazing aint it.
