Re: your input

If you know anything about cars and can fix that yourself in a few days, that would be a great deal. That car has all the foundation for a 16g or bigger to run 12s or lower if you fix whatever piston ring problem there is.

well i know plenty about cars and how to fix them but i really dont want to have to swap another fucking block......its just GAY labor......not to mention high oil pressure can be caused by a number of things, fried rings, partially spun bearing, etc......i guess i want input if you think its worth purchasing and then having to fix the shit right away

Re: your input

my guess is that the PCV is blocked off, adding power, but putting too much pressure in the oil system, popping the dipstick out. ask about that.

Re: your input

Its worth it. Has alot a nice amount of mods in it already. Can get your money parting the whole car out if you dont want it anymore.
