• 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.

buyers remorse

They were. Oil changed every 3,000 miles, never was driven long with a check engine light on etc and weren't run hard either as that would have killed the tranny. It is a 97 though....

Were the LIM gaskets ever changed to the revised ones? If not, that could have been your problem. Either that or you were knocking like crazy and never knew it...

Engine #3 just had the LIM change. #1 went on the highway as the oil pump died a very sudden death. #2 had a much slower death as something in the bottom end went over the course of 2 weeks as the car made less and less power, still ran though when it was yanked for #3.

As for knock, its completely stock minus the intake.
