haha no no, I am done with racketeering for now. I am in the process of selling that in order to pay for the engine. I just went with a used engine only had 40K out of an 03. got it for 900 bucks and is being installed for about 600.

I figured I'm going to be attending my summer semester of school and I need the dough so I just went with a quick fix for now. Either way I ended with a better motor considering mine blew up lol and it had 70K on the clock.

I enjoy getting blown every now and then lol. Yea my program elects me to take 2 summer semesters this is my first one. I was thinking about it, if i did I would probably piece one together for less than 1500 or piece a turbo kit together. IDK what I'm going to do yet.

you can get an aluminum block for 400 bucks. but I cant afford that build up, well i can afford to do it but it wouldn't be a wise decision for me at this point. New engine is pretty much in getting a new clutch and she should be ready for this coming week end.
