New rotating assembly most likely. According to Ted it sounds like it spun a bearing. It'll come out early next week, come apart, and go from there. I don't think it's warrantied any more.

Ouch, that sucks. With what you've already put in that car, many of us could have most of what we want, in ours.

I think the prob is I don't know what I want!!

I thought I was done 4 years ago with headers and a tune. Fast forward ahead to now and it's going on its third engine and approaching 145 mph. I think I got brainwashed somewhere in between.

If the cylinders look like they've been walking I'm gonna scrap this block and get something that can handle 1000 fwhp.

litle88 · 08-10-2013, 12:46 PM

Lol @ warranty!

So the rods and pistons are no bueno?

The crank can't be resurfaced?

Damn bud that sucks! I saw it in your face when we were by your car. You or PQ aren't the only ones. It's a long story but I gotta pull the heads on the 4th gen! Grrrr something so simple and dumb turned into a project. Now I'm rethinking my set up and "might" go TSP Ls7 Heads or spray it! I want to cage it so I can race it in Htown...

Lol We're all brainwashed. It's like crack, but we get to keep our teeth.

I would think the crank is fine along with the block. Regardless of the rest if the RA Ted wants to put better rods in there. I'm guessing the pistons would get swapped as well.

Seems like everyone is having issues lately.

Lol it's that time of the year!

Either way keep us posted on your new parts!

No doubt I will. The setup won't change just a few internal parts.

Alright Zeke. It's cut and bent. I forgot to bring the damn switch home with me, so I still have to cut the hole to thread the switch in, and I still have to paint it. The bracket came out pretty decent though!
