thats definitely not a 4-2 misshift. It's the result of his not caring wtf happens to his car. lol tom, i remember the night you did that... your car was running just fine and then the next day you said you destroyed it. Good job.

best quess is that it was a defect considering this engine only had around 10k on it and i didnt have enough time to beat the crap outta it yet, i put in it and not even 3k into having it in my car it went capute.. when it started to go i dropped to second gear on the freeway and floored it just to hear a loud kaboom and then the ching ching of metal peices dropping on the freeway.. i wish i could find the rest of the rod and the othewr parts of my block but 85 took em from me:P
