Here's a side view video of that pull.

I'm not 100% sure, but those blocks might have a parting line or a some other form of joint where the bottom end meets the base of the cylinder block. For sure, those boys are running HUGE sequential turbos putting some serious boost into the cylinders. Still, pretty darn amazing to see!

And here's a HD longer video of it.

That's kinda cute how the little boy teared up because Daddy's tractor broke. I could see myself doing that as a kid.

The machine shop where I do my machining does a bunch of pulling engines. Some of those parts are just massive. There are some guys that dump a ton of money into these engines. Since most of them do not have aftermarket stroker cranks, they either have billet cranks made by Bryant (at over 10K each) or they stroke the stock ones. They have a crank welder that is made to increase the stroke of a crank. It will build up weld on one side of the rod journal until it is big enough. Then they put it in the crank grinder and grind it round again. I have seen them increase the stroke so much on a crank that the actual rod journal is all weld. The entire journal is made by the welder and the old journal is ground off. It is one of the craziest things I have seen. It ends up being stronger than a stock crank that has been Nitrided.
The rods are billet pieces that are just massive.Some of the rods are bigger than my arm. It's hard to believe that any of that stuff would break. It is something to see.

I guess with all the compression and boost all that cylinder pressure has to go somewhere..

I thought alot of people still offset ground cranks this doesn't happen much anymore?
