Check out the spark plug from Cylinder 1. The pieces of metal in the oil pan were piston skirt not IMS bearing. Looks like the piston blew apart. I fished around through the spark plug hole with a screwdriver the the piston has a huge crack though the crown. Probably the cylinder is cracked too. Very surprised this engine still started up.



Donor car will be going on the lift next for engine/trans removal.
