Nice, that sounds like my story. I test drove my 2002 GTP for about 2 hours, ran perfect. Paid for the car, and on the way home (bout 80miles) she shut off once. Wiggled the battery connections, started up fine.
Pulled onto the interstate and all of a sudden BAM...knock,knock,knock,knock.

Called the dealer and found out they already closed, and with no one around, I drove another 50miles on 5cylinders. Literally as i pulled in my driveway, she seized.

So we swapped in a motor from a 2002 Regal, with low mileage, and it was the bed damn sound in the world when we cranked it and she ran.

Grats on your reincarnation!
