Amazing how much damage can occur in such a short time.Once had a 396/375 BBC kick a rod off at 4000rpm the second I heard the noise hit the switch and clutch,damage was incredible.It took out the block,cam,and a lot of other parts.I say forget repairing the block and start over and use a steel crank they are inexpensive as well as good rods.Good Luck and too bad about your carnage.
