im really surprised you didn't kick out a rod through the side of the engine block when it sucked in all that stirred up muddy water. its amazing it did not hydralic the engine worse. i would say that engine and tranny are living on borrowed time. cool video.

Total BS. It might have ran for 30 minutes, but not for a week.
