    is that all you guys got? the engine is a good idea when it works that is. if anyone has ever driven a 6l, they know its a fun engine to drive in- its got great pickup, as long as it works as it should. But i would like to know how a rear end accident can cause an oil leak? Has anyone ever known someone to be re ended at 30-40mph and have it crack the engine? I even slid with the train, just kinda gracefully glided if you must

    30-40 mph by a train is a little different than 30-40 mph by a miata. theres this thing called mass...

    KE=1/2mv^2
    therefor: if a miata weighs in at 1 ton and a 100 car train weighs in at 10,000 tons, then there is 10,000 times more kinetic energy in a train than a miata at the same speed.

    a few simple physics calcs results in a force from the train impact being around 14000 lbs and from a miata a scant 2800 lbs, but the miata calcs were oversimplified so the force would actually be significantly less than that.

    i can definately see it causing a cracked engine since all the stuff behind it is shoved up into it.

    you know, i even defended you there for a while but this is getting ridiculous and way to hard to not partake in.

    don't you think it would have cracked at a mount? I'm not saying the truck perfect after the wreck, but I would think it would have drivability issues, not engine problems unless it was apparent like a cracked mount.
