The car would keep getting harder and harder to start and the starter draws like all the energy from the battery trying to start it now since its seized.

Any coolant missing? Wondering if it's just hydrolocked.

X2 on fordman... I was thinking maybe your hydrolocked and that means you may not be toast bro.

From his description...he's not hydrolocked. He had the squealing pig of death sound and someone else confirmed the knocking. It's dead motor .

I had that noise when my rb's went out ... Im not to familiar with the symptoms of a main though.... Is it the same bill?

yeah..people call it a main bearing or rod bearing. Realistically it's usually a rod bearing which can be called lower end and poof.. it all sounds like the death knock.
