Check under the hood (warning not for squeamish)

Got this e-mail today, have no Idea if its a true story.


A guy in St. Louis was driving to work on Hwy I-44 when he heard a 'pop.' He thought it sounded like a flat tire, though his ride wasn't affected. After pulling over, checking the tires and finding them intact he opened the hood to look at the motor.
Before the hood was even all the way open he jumped back in shock and knocked his head on the partially opened hood, unable to believe what his eyes were seeing!
Nobody was going to believe this! You sure wouldn't have either! Fortunately, a coworker with a camera recognized him along side the road and stopped to see if he could help. Check out the photos below to witness for your self the source of his amazement.

Someone posted this over in the acurainspired.com forum.

The guy just wanted to add more umph for his RSX. How was he to know snakepower isn't the same as horsepower?
