boost spike leads 2 rebuild process, update pg5.
My mechanic informed me that rods are bent, shavings in oil pan, crankshaft may be damaged, & pistons gota get replaced....
so options?
my mechanic can get me a whole new motor for i think 1700..comes with 1500 miles .....or i take the head to my cousins to get port n polished to 89mm throw wiseco 89mm 9:0:1, k1 rods w/ the extra little things i need. im still not 100% on the valves yet.... im delaying pulling the motor but itll be out ina couple of days. possibly start 2moro. if i build it i wont get the new motor. or new car lol
