Locked up S2k motor
no it wasnt driven after the problem was noticed, yes the clutch was destroyed it was by exedy and I would agree that the clutch may not be able to support the torque the S was putting out all of that aside the clutch has nothing to do with locking up the engine I think the build was piss poor and yes for the money spent I deserve to pissed because there are still no answers to how this happeded or at least Im not being told, the engine locked up at the shop
Bending a crank would take extreme abuse like trying to downshift from 4th to 3rd but instead going to 1st or trying to go from 3rd to 4th and going to 2nd,its rare to bend a crank and the way that clutch looks it took extreme abuse if it only had 90 miles on it, it chunk'd apart..
I know the car has been ran hard at the track i'm sure he has checked oil levels, i know that clutch chunked apart and is nothing left on that disk its ate up..
What did you guys do to break in the engine Phil??
Are you guys working on something to get you back up and running??
What did they say they think happened??
Good luck hopefully it turns out ok for you..
Thats just my opinion but thier like assholes everyone has 1..

bullshit pistons 1 and 4 are not even level, what shifting and down shifting does not make that occur and as far as the clutch is concerned again like i said it has NOTHING!!!! to do with the engine locking up so even though I appreciate your input Samuels you need to lay off the clutch that motor was fully built or at least I thought it was this should not have happened as far as the clutch like i said earlier I have to find the right combo I drove it hard when it was stock and had no problems except with the clutch and when I spun a crank bearing in it I at least knew why the engine locked as for the oil coming out of the bov I was hoping that maybe someone who has also s/c an S2 could help my brother drives a s/c gt with a cobra 4.6 and it has a vortech and his hasnt leaked so what gives
I feel it should be fixed by the builder period but if not I'll figure something out Its not just the S now that has me edgy I also have a built H22/H23 turbo accord that was built by the same builder and Im not worrying about the clutch Im wondering if it'll have the same problem I mean honestly should I not be worried
He isnt saying the clutch had anything to do with what happened to your motor. He is saying that with the clutch being the way it is that the car and motor have been driven hard. He is also saying that if you miss shift and go to 2nd when you meant to go to 4th it could cause what happened. Maybe you should go back and reread what he has to say before you jump down his throat when he is trying to help you out.
