It can happen, believe me...
Um, a 5.0L Mustang race motor under race conditions is a little different than Brandon here w/ hie 2.5L DOHC N/A Impreza motor. That think couldn't grenade with an actual grenade crammed into the intake. Those motors tend to kill themselves by overheating and blowing the head gaskets... not by shooting a rod throught the side of the block.
