Default Dam, just blew a drive

Well it finally happened. Was out the other day & all of a sudden one engine just reved up, heard some grinding sound then it just died. I knew right away that something blew in the drive. The shifter was stuck forward, really had to pull hard so could atleast start the motor just to make sure nothing was wrong with it. Kicked into nutruel but just nothing there.

Got a 29 Outlaw twin 502's with Imco Manifolds, ECM, MSD, airfilter, roller rockers and ported intake manifolds. Sure does sound great at wide open, louder and meaner then the HP500's. Running a strong 80 with 27 Mirage Plus's. Gonna get it fixed up and for sale. Need something bigger and faster for next year.
