Right blown my engine up. Made the biggist misstake ever, converten to MJ took the dissy out put a blanking plug in, took it out for a spin having forgotten completely about the dissy drive shaft which decided it didn't want to be in the gearbox any more and smashed a tennis ball sized hole in the casting. its come out rather bent so i don't know what it got cought it but i can't be good.

not sure what im going to do with it now. looking at my options in case of a worse case the hole engine being scrap (bar the head of course) not sure if i should go Vtec or K serise or just 1275 with a turbo or supercharger or build another 1380 out of the bits i can salvedge. Ideas? Pics to follow. well thats totally upto you mate if you ask on here most people will say a series, if you ask over on 16vminiclub then most will say "alien" engine. id rip the engine out trip it and then see what you need, may not be a bad a you think. no longer a series, but still 1.3 turbo.

Yes, the fact the hole is in the front of the casing and above the gears suggests the crank threw it out. Gears may have survived.

that hole would tig weld if you can magic up the bits of cast, i had a box do that with an end cap coming away at 6500rpm on the rollers :( i was lucky one big bit of cast and it welded back in no probs.
