yeah unfortunately I do....Kyle was putting an airfoil on and had removed the airbox. One of the screws fell. He looked and looked for it but couldn't find it. Finally he figured it fell on the ground somewhere and fired her up. He didn't make it far before that piston found the screw

Yeah fairly horrifyingOriginally posted by meissen View PostHoly shit - that screw... the way it beat the crap out of the piston top... that's nuts!
. We kept the piston as a reminder. We also found out when that happened that the screen on the MAF sensor was removed. What sucks even more was that he had just gotten the car 2 months prior to that and was still paying off the loan. But hey on a positive note I learned about all the inner workings of a 305 lol. Gotta find the silver lining

Yes you're totally right lol I don't know what made me laugh more though - your comment or the fact that it was totally something my brother would say (who you happen to have the same name as plus he also lives out in Cali too)Originally posted by MeenZ28 View PostDude.... you got screwed!
