Headers mad lim done. Everything is back together except the t stat. I lost the housing lol.

 

[bigburban]

not a lot of clearance... anyone have serious issues with rubbing

Take a BFH to the bottom part and make it flat before it get's scraped away.

Nice Pics. Random question but does the Iphone 5 only do the panoramic or can you do that on an Iphone 4 too?

I took mine to an exhaust shop & had them cutout goose neck & weld in properly placed pipe. I am not lowered but some speed bumps scrap just a touch unless I am going 0.024 mph

Whelp. I'm pretty sure the motor is toasted.

Started it and it ran like ****, smoked like all get out. Turned it off and checked firing order. Went to restart and it turned over twice and went crunch. Motor is now seized.

Im pulling the heads now. Probably gonna buy a new/used long block

Ouch man that sux.

Any guess as to what may have happened?

 

[TexasTanker19kilo20]

April fools has passed SIR!!

If srs though, that sucks.

 

[bigburban]

I wish!
Not too sure what happened. When I pulled the supercharger I found lots of aluminum bits I'm the lower intake mani. Pulled the front head and found this

 

[TLSheff]

Wow. You scared it bad. It knew what was coming after all the work and it just committed suicide first chance it got.

Time for a L32 replacement.

 

[bigburban]

I need to see if I can find a short block. If I can't, I might part it

 

[TexasTanker19kilo20]

Hope you get it fixed up.

 

[bigburban]

Well after thinking about it, I figure I have 5 choices

1. Junkyard motor and swap my cam and heads over

2. Zzp short block and transfer all my crap over

3. Find a wrecked/rusted/or bad trans gtp and make 1 good car out of it

4. part out all my aftermarket stuff and sell the car as a roller.

5. Complete part out

 

[TexasTanker19kilo20]

I vote #1 and or #2

 

[bigburban]

im pretty sure im gonna part out my aftermarket stuff and sell it as a roller

 

[TexasTanker19kilo20]

Well sh1t.

 

[bigburban]

Well sh1t.

at this point, i just dunno if i wanna risk dumping another 800 on a junkyard motor to find out that it also has issues

 

[DanPrixGTP]

Keep her alive.

I dont want to see this wonderful GP go to waste.

 

[TLSheff]

Don't do it... COME AAAAAAAANNNNNNNNN!!!!!! Keep her going. You'd spend alot more than $800 for a whole new car while you try to sell this one as a roller, and we all know roller GPs sell for nothing.
