Too Much Boost!!

I don't have the story behind this but it looks like he was running WAY too much boost! Notice where it let loose. I wonder what head studs they used.

I was most likely an International DT466.

That engine definitely started life out as a DT466. Probably out around 540 on the cubes.

It just goes to show that when you beef up one weak point, you find another one.

Still pretty amazing that a solid chunk of cast iron could split like it did. Pretty spectacular.

I don't think this is the same tractor but here is a video of some carnage, probably similar to the pics in the original post. I was looking on youtube for a video of the one from the pics above. I thought it was floating around here for a while, but maybe I confused it with this one. Anyway...
