• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Any one know whats going on?

i know the feeling.... trust me. 3 transmissions and 2 motors have been swapped since i got this car. did u have colder plugs also? seems like u were somewhat ok to run a 3.4, only thing really lacking was plog of headers. front manifold= FAIL. have to ask cuz of some posts i see around here... u do run highest octane gas u can get right? if u part it out i may be interested in the PCM. how hard were u on the throttle when it took a sh*t?
 


Damn that really sucks. this is my 2nd motor now. When i first bought the car i drove it a week and spun a bearing then put this motor in drove it about 15-20 miles. haha.. i havint even go threw two tanks of gas in the 4 months ive owned it lol

And yeah i was running 104 autolights and I was going to see what it would top out at and i got up to 90 mph 4,000 RPM and it just wouldn't go past that it wasn't hitting a rev limiter but just seemed like it was bogging out I looked in my rear view mirror and there was like a mile long trail of smoke.
i should have just went in and had it tuned but oh well i guess live and learn haha
 
either had it tuned or scanned for KR after 3.4 setup was done. i accepted friend request... if u decide to part it out let me know asap... im looking for 3.4 pulley and pcm. i have headers and other supporting mods so the KR u had shouldnt be an issue for me.. ive heard nothing but good reviews about 3800 performance pcms.
 
I Scanned it for KR when i first got it running it showed .8 at the highest. and i was running 95 octane and yeah i will let you know for sure if i do part it out but as of right now i think ima pull it and drop another motor in it and if i blow another ill be done with it for sure.. and i have not heard any thing bad about there pcms ether but im trying to get the programming script..

I think I am going to rebuild my old block. scenes it just needs rod bearings. I don't have a hole lot of experience but i learn quick lol. If i have it boared .20 over ill just need to put different piston rings it right? or will i need different pistons?
 


Lol yeah i was a little confused i didn't think .8 was too bad. and i would but theres no point now.. it had fresh oil in it. now its dirty as shyt and has metal shavings in it. ;/. i think ima pull the motor and check every thing out. see whats going on.
 
haha yeah. Well hopfully tonight ima get the motor pulled out and strip it down and find out whats goin on for sure
