when I started to take it apart and took the exhaust off here is what I dumped out of the pipe
this is the top of the piston
and the rod cut through the case all the way around
the majority of the engine is destroyed all on the pto side
I'm trying to determine what caused this prblem and looking to buy a new engine
if anyone can help please let me know

probably due to a batch of bad fuel.Also check what your jetting was at the time,what was the temps that day?? and did you use premium fuel???? I have no issues with my 2000 700 SRX and I am stock jetting 147.5,146.3,146.3 ,run premium fuel always,have Fitch Fuel Catalyst in the tank and I give her wot runs a lot up to 2 miles long with no issue and no DCS light coming on even to tell me I may have an issue.Better start looking for a station that sells better quality fuel to begin with I suggest.

How do the other pistons look?
Did that wrist pin really fall out of the pipe? Sorry but thats just way cool if it did.

LEAN for a LONG time. For accurate ideas we need pics of center and mag cylinders. If othes look bad I second bad fuel, If they dont look like hell I would say carb on PTO dirty/plugged, broke reed petal wandered threw combustion chamber or sucking ALOT of air into the PTO seal. With the amount of debris in pipe I would have to say you ran your tripple as a twin for a while.

I was thinking more severe deto than lean but I'm no expert

That had to be making some noise for a while to get to that point. I would think detonation to destroy parts like that.
That IS the worst I've EVER SEEN. How did that HUUGE PIECE of metal get all the way through the exhaust? I am IMPRESSED to say the least!

How many miles were on this? I'm debating if I should freshen my Srx and Sx that have 6500 miles. I would be upset if this happened!
