Re: The ultimate piss off. HG blown, Tow Truck Driver hits my car, Then leaves me stranded.

Dude wtf happened to f*ck up all that stuff just from running hot. Are you positive everything is trashed? It might not be so bad once you take it apart.

As far as rebuilding the motor, dude its really not that hard. I rebuilt mine freshman year of collage and having no experience what so ever. And it still runs strong today, so as long as you take your time you will be fine.

Re: The ultimate piss off. HG blown, Tow Truck Driver hits my car, Then leaves me stranded.

Well some sorta good news.

The car does run. It just runs like a bag of shit. A clunking noise from the crank.

I was considering my options today; part out, vs rebuild, vs engine swap.

I found a 7 bolt long block online from a wearhouse close by. Only 45k miles on it.

I snagged it. I'm going to swap in all my goodies. Just don't care I can't picture life without my Talon.

I'm really happy.

FYI 1300 for the longblock.

Good news is weisco pistons survived Eagle Rods too. Just needs new rings. Crank is gone. Cams, are safe. Valves are toast. HG is toast.

Here comes rebuild/swap 2.0

Re: The ultimate piss off. HG blown, Tow Truck Driver hits my car, Then leaves me stranded.

What exactly happened then? The crank must have spun a main bearing? How are the valves toast. This really just doesnt make sense to me if you only over heated the car how you destroyed so much of the motor.

Re: The ultimate piss off. HG blown, Tow Truck Driver hits my car, Then leaves me stranded.

the bearing is like stuck it doesn't go around the crank.

I didn't just over heat almost all of the oil was gone.

Yea that guys understanding of the situation seems very limited. Maybe he's a dumb dumb

Bonus that the whole motor isn't f**k'd though. Build that bitch so you can turn that boost up and not worry about anything.

Ideally I would like to build the engine in god's metallic image. Unfortunately, I'll settle for it as up and running strong with the same parts as before.

Ned I'll give you have of what silvr gives me k ?
