Keyser Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Hope everyone is well, I know I'm not about much at the moment but I'm still helping out a few members where I can and I happen to have this so ...... Just a quick feeler thread before I strip this down, I have a 350z VQ35DE engine with what is expected to be a blown bottom end The mechanic that removed it said it sounds like bottom end has COMPLETELY gone! Before I strip it and get the nice (read still serviceable) bits off it is anyone planning on doing a built engine and wanting a base to start from? Let me know or it's getting stripped PS I have a spare crank for a VQ in the shed (doesn't everyone? ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasso Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Hope you don't mind the idiot question but what does "a blown bottom end" actually mean? It means the top end is ok. Also we'd like to see pics and user name with "blown bottom end" 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATTAK Z Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Hope you don't mind the idiot question but what does "a blown bottom end" actually mean? I think the opposite it a blown top end which translates as soggy saddlebags 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser Posted December 9, 2013 Author Share Posted December 9, 2013 OK This is going well @ Wizurd - Blown bottom end means - No oil and the Big end bearings have been turned into metal shavings and thrown round the engine - it also gives a lovely rattling noise when revved - if you continue to drive you may even get it to blow up @ Wasso Pics to follow but here is a boring one But I'm sure SMD will supply a better pic when he reads this @ Attak Z Love this "think the opposite it a blown top end which translates as soggy saddlebags" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
