Thinking the Government stimulus plan is working is like thinking that taking water form the deep end of a pool and dumping it in the shallow end will raise the water level of the pool.

so those heads were way to tight, it took all my effort to get one of the head bolts off, i used a breaker bar + a pipe + a socket extention and it will wouldnt come out, here is a picture to show the bending breaker bar:

have no idea, the rod is what broke the cap and bolts are still all tight, so your guess is as good as mine

Was that a 3/8ths breaker bar you were using? I have a 1/2 or even a 1" breaker you could borrow if you still need it. I thought maybe the bolt let go. It was a little hard to tell from the angle you shot the pix.
the cylinder walls are very smoth. so i talked to a damage analist and this is what he thinks happened.
the rod had/got a crack on one side and just kinda vibraded for a bit then the other side just gave way, then the crank just beat the rod to no other. and we couldnt turn it over because the piston was into the head and the crank was up into the rod(but we were almost sure about that one anyways.
