Mustang Blow Up
March 6, 2009
Las Vegas Midnight Mayhem
I was just testing out the video when this Mustang's engine blew up.
Please check out my newest video "Lightning Strike Prediction"

engine blows up part 2
this car was a junk yard car. the engine was about the only thing that worked on it and the car was going to be crushed, no one wanted to buy the engine or anything else so we blew it up just days from being a sardine can.
Motor Blow Up #2
Some more saturday afternoon fun, this motor made close to 500hp and turned a max of 8600rpm before it blew. It cracked both heads, split the block, blew a hole in the right side of the block and demolished the starter. Good Times.
auto ford fiesta opblazen
een fiesta de motor stuk laten lopen. wel grappig dat zonder olie loopt de drijfstangen vliegen door het blok heen.
Full size Chevy van engine AMAZING blow up scatter 4.3 v-6
This thing blew the freak up! It threw 2 rods and the pistons out of the bottom, and KEPT on running until it finally locked up the other 4 rods! Amazing blow up for sure! The other good part about this..
It used to belong to my boss. KUDOS to the one at the throttle for not getting scared and letting off when it scattered!
Turbine Engine: full power ... LOUD!
This is more film of the GE LM1500 gas turbine engine running at the S&S Turbines open-air test cell.
All the noise in the beginning is made by the start cart, which is a 90Hp turbine engine. Even when you hear the LM1500 start to wind up, it's not even running until you see the heat waves coming out the back of it.
This happens when the operator opens the fuel valve at around 2,000 rpm.
In the middle of the video, when the noise in an unbearable shriek, the engine is turning just over 7000 rpm, and is blowing hot air out the jetpipe to the tune of a little more than 15 thousand horsepower.
The air flow through the engine at full power is about 150 pounds per second.
In the view of the control room screen, the numbers are as follows from left to right along the top of the screen:
EGT or Exhaust gas temperature in degrees Celsius, measured just after the last stage of the turbine, which is just behind the second green steel frame holding the engine.
Next is RPM. This engine has basically one rotating shaft, and you can just barely see the 1st stage compressor blades moving on shutdown. Engine RPM is of this common shaft, upon which all compressor and turbine stages are mounted.
5,000 rpm is idle speed for this engine.
Last, on the right, is lube oil pressure, in pounds per square inch. These engines have roller bearings, not journal bearings like a car engine, so oil pressure is mainly an indication of oil flow. A lot of flow is needed, because the oil is used as a coolant for the main bearings. The engine will run with no oil pressure, except the bearings will overheat, so monitoring of oil flow is very important.
This is the same engine you see in "Starting a large turbine engine"

If you have to ask why, it can't be explained to you.
blowing up my BRAND NEW engine
after many years and thousands of $$$ later, i blow it up and leak oil all over the place, watch the massive hemorrhage on cam!
Opel Kadett engine blow & fire
A redneck repair on the engine mount could not fix our Opel Kadett, the engine was to bad to do another jump. Time for an engine blow, some unexpected fire did make it kinda spectacular.
De reparatie aan de motorsteun was niet voldoende om onze Opel Kadett klaar te maken voor nog een sprong, de motor was te slecht. Tijd om de motor op te blazen, een brandje maakte het nog wat mooier.
