RE: Motor Fried
AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! DON'T TELL ME THAT!
My 99's got 106k...but I see no reason why it would take a dump like yours did.
Why did it happen? Do you beat on your car alot? I'm getting worried now...time to sell!

RE: Motor Fried
yea i do the same thing, boost up to like 60 in second!!!!! then just let it coast down to 45!!!! honestly man depending on what your wanting out of your car, id say find the problem, then decide on whether an aftermarket short or longblock is right for you. no sense in puttin in a somewhat built motor if your not gonna use it.
and by the way im lookin at a custom built motor right now from Tim at Modular Powerhouse, for well under 10k installed, tuned, and built! im sure you could pick up a stock block (considering thats what you need) for under 2k ready to drop in.
