    It can happen to SBC's also, this one I believe was a cast piston letting go.
    When I bought the ex-strip 55 Chevy , the engine was fresh sitting on a stand looked good with all the goodies on it ,tunnel ram, 2 Holleys, etc, owner says it's all new done right with all the right parts inside ..got receipts..aaahh..bought it anyways .
    Got a couple of fun years out of it . 1562137756320~2.jpeg
