Cracked Piston Help
So long story short I took my car(01 GT) in finally to see why it had been running so rough and after a compression test it turns out there is a cracked piston in cyl #1.
now my question is, what are the chances that there is damage to the block? Can I make it by with just a piston swap or am I going to have to replace the block as well? (the car still is running at this point).

Damn :[ haha
Well thanks for the help .
But I'm kinda still a noob to alot of this but with the motor would I need to get it pulled to remove the piston or could I just drop the oil pan to replace them?
(I don't plan on doing the work but just so I have a heads up before I take it in)

I am sure there is something wrong but there could be a bad valve or something that would be alittle cheaper then haveing to pull the hole motor apart and the next ??? would be why is there a bad piston since you would not want it to happen again to me i just thing that something happend to make it that way if that is the case!!! hopeing for the best for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
