    Well you'd be surprised at the people that don't know, including certified tech's (i've worked with some real idiots in the past, not saying you are by any means, just saying I've worked with some DUMB people that shouldn't even be changing oil), and having a crank go out the bottom is ALOT more uncommon than a rod, so that's why I said that. That's really weird that it just up and blew up like that with no warning and full on oil, especially at cruising. You won't be able to get a supercharger for it right now, Robbomaz is working on a new kit and the Alpine one is discontinued. If you find someone selling one used is your best bet at the moment.

    I've heard of it happening one time before, but gotta agree, pretty unusual to spit it out the bottom...
