It doesn't sound good if you were redlining. I heard that if a belt breaks or something like that at low rpm's you have a chance of being ok, but not at redline.

Ok, so they said the engine is gone, found a replacement for $500 with like 65K miles, how many hours labor does the book call for to replace our engine?

No street racing, was on I95 in South Carolina, just having sum fun passing another car.....till I broke it!
