**** happens bro. When you buy a used car you are paying for a car as-is
If you didn't know that then maybe you should have a bought a brand new car with warranty.

RE: BLOWN
shame dude. i remember when my bros starter died on his 89, and he poped it in reverse, his friends and my dad pushe dit and me poped and it worked fine, i dont see how that would screw up the engine, unless too low of gears would do something, i dont know, its a shame too, that car is pretty hawt, hope you get it worked out, may i suggest a 357 magnum as the weapon of choice.

RE: BLOWN
You should have no prob popping it off in Rev. I've done it quite a few times. Youre luck sounds like mine. If the story I read above it accurate, I'd be in flip mode also. But on the real though, a modded car is a problem in itself. Always something to either fix or upgrade. Some of us think it's fun though. HAve the engine checked out bro. Might be something simple.

Man ive never even heard of bumpstarting a car in reverse, can you really do that successfully?
And you can def. still sell it, there are tons of people out there that want a great looking fox body that they can throw their built motor in to... the one guys that just burned is looking for a fox body w/o a motor.

RE: BLOWN
Thats the whole thing, "Cheap" I'll be taking way to big of a loss if I sell it as it is atm... I coulden't even get half of what I paid.
I was roll starting it down my driveway in reverse.. my father said he heard a pop when I tried it.. It didin't work that time, so we pushed it down the street and it started in 1st gear, but then we heard the ticking from the engine...
I was like... ahhh ****.
So I pulled off my valve covers, all the rods are perfect..I plan to take off my intake and check the rollers... But I'm extremely upset..
But **** happends..
