Im an idiot. I was in a hurry, changed my oil and did not ensure the o-ring was in place on the oil filter cap. Lost all my oil on the way home, heard knocking, i was only a mile from home and it was 7 degrees below zero. By the time I got home, added oil, the damge was done. Threw the no 3 rod through the side of the block. Im in Minneapolis St paul Minnesota. 300SD, new snow tires (3 weeks old)
new front end work, body ok, (orig Cali car, some small bubbles here n there, grey interior) Make a offer, before I call the junkyard and give it away.

Sorry to hear about your trouble. Hope all works out ok for you.
