I agree, try turning the engine over by hand and if you can't take off the oil pan and inspect.

Sounds like it locked up.

Nothing not a single chunk.

No glitteriness like my friend's 95 Talon was.

Before you go any farther taking the engine apart, have you tested the starting system, or are you just pulling shit apart without checking it first? Personally I feel that your car may have problems related to the following.

I'm going to go with it caught DSMosis (pronounced D-S-M-o-sis). Literally "an abnormal condition of the DSM."

DSMosis is commonly found in cars produced by Diamond Star Motors.

Symptoms include but are not limited to:

Random oil burning, funny noises, running like a champ right before breaking down, breaking down at the worst times, having your check engine light turn on then off randomly when nothing is wrong.

Common cures for DSMitis include but are not limited to:
Baseball bat, junkyard, selling it to a 15 year old ricer, can of gas and a match, hitting a tree at 65 m.p.h., driving into a large body of water.

oh well, free bump to get this guy some help.

LOL I like that response.

Some to add:

Having the transmission make some horrible clunking noises on launch, only to be written off as "normal"

Having the oil dipstick shoot off during a launch

A perpetual black oily mark on the rear bumper, that will never completely come off

Having the car want to speed up unusually fast in front of a police squad car, yet it will seem to not want to accelerate at all 10 minutes later when it is lined up against something

i would drain the oil and take off the pan and take all of the metal out of it because you most liely broke a rod thus the slapping.

[Big-D]

yea i bet you have chunks of metal in the pan.
