Figured out what blew up my 3.2 motor
 
I have been slowly pulling apart the 3.2 M96 engine that was in the cheap $600 2001 Boxster S 6speed I bought the last summer. As soon as I split the case halves, the mystery was over... it ain't pretty gentleman!

Well, that's not a pretty sight. I don't think that will buff out:-)

I think the case and crank are shot, my wife says to turn it into a small mini wine rack with a glass table lol

Great video. Thanks.
Its a shame the rod broke and took out the case, but you did know that was likely I guess.

well, well, well! This is a small world. I have been following you "YouTube" videos and have got a lot from them. Now I find you here. His videos covers a lot of the way to fix most items on our cars so go to YouTube and sample.

keep up the good work; I come from the 911/914 world - air cooled; like the Boxster S 2002 and it does fit my needs.
