i have shortblock that has 2 bellhousing bolts broken off..

this happened in the top of 3rd at 6000rpm and 165km/h (102mph) when the driveshaft snapped which caused the tranny to twist and snap also. The bellhousing was in four pieces.

the question is do u think the shortblock would still be usable?

im wondering if when the tranny was twisting the input shaft moving could cause damage to the crank??

it had a roller pilot beaing, the internal part and all the bearings were destroyed/gone...but the outer race is still there

the engine still turns over by hand with no problems

 

i would just replace it. you really dont know what else is wrong with it. the crank may be stressed, and could come apart next time you run it.

 

you by chance aren't running solid motor mounts as well as a solid tranny mount are you??

 

I would not try to weld it if it is nothing special if it is a good race block then I would be looking into having it fixed.stock I would not spend the money on just get another block. As far as the crank goes take it apart and have it checked if you need to reuse it.

 

no they were just new stock rubber ones
