I wouldn't sue... as it may not be financially feasible. How much is a replacement engine or repairs/replacement parts for the engine?
Obviously engine damage at this level is clearly from excessive RPMs to have the rod break through the casing with that much force... but lawyer fees and court costs may be more expensive than replacing the engine.
Did the shop clearly communicate that they are required to take the car our for a test drive? Does the shop have documentation that the customer has to sign that states that the shop isn't responsible for damage that is not representative of the work done? etc...
Weigh all options before deciding which direction to go. Been in this position before, but I walked away from the shop and chose to never do business with them again.
