^I'd drop a c-note on some hooked on phonics first...


that being said, you could just get the engine rebuilt, it'd prolly be cheaper...

Yeah you could get it rebuilt or just get a new stock shortblock for 2-3 grand?

Re: need help on making a choice

^I'm not familiar with those, but your options are slim, as the n/a's are only FWD capable for an engine swap... what are you doing to keep on blowing engines??? are you running them w/o oil, no coolant, or redlining the hell out of it??? There really isn't any reason to be going through two or 3 engines and besides the 6g engine is a very strong engine, it's like you have to want to do something wrong in order to mess it up.

Re: need help on making a choice

Seriously the 6G72 is strong as hell, nobody can beat up an engine as bad as I beat on mine and my shit had over 150K miles on it and never gave a problem. Your probably getting them built wrong or having a chimp install it and mess up the install in order to keep blowing it.

As far as I know Jasper is just an dealer of engines. They offer good guarantee and quality build. Get a stock short block and have a ceritifed tech install it. You'll be straight.

Re: need help on making a choice

Yeah, if you've blown 2 engines already, I would think the fault lies somewhere other than which engine you buy.
