Also, be aware that although the legislation only requires the engine block be withdrawn from resale, the methodology of disabling the engine block with sodium silicate will render the heads, cams, crankshaft and all internal parts unuseable. You will still be able to use the engine accessories (alternator, water pump, starter, manifolds, etc) that are not damaged - but some of these engines may get hot enough in the processing of seizure that manifolds will warp.

I do want to tear down one of these engines to see what happens to it. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cyclops.gif" alt="" />
