That's great! less weight makes the car faster!

 

thats sucks.. seems like tuner had no clue... pay once and do it right, if not you'll pay twice!!!

 

Glad I got a hold of Mellon.

 

wow they really pushed that one. I put the #3 connecting rod through the block and the piston looked 10 times better than that

 

haaa nice that you could get another motor liqquid most will not go that route and just sell the car

 

yea it was a big decision, full of problems. Bought a shortblock and crank off member on here, was told it was good core to rebuild and it had spun a bearing. Machine shop had to bore it .040 over to get a decent surface and the crank that came with it was complete junk. The air conditioner mounting bosses had been welded back on the engine after what must have been a crash of the car it was in.. looked alot worse after hot tanking it. That's the chance you take buying used, and also my fault for not inspecting it closer and saying "no thanks" when I saw a few signs it might be roughed up bad. Of course, at the time there were very few around with the crank and I wanted to get my car back on the road ASAP so I bought it.

Anyways enough of my ramblings.. I've seen more meth-related engine wreckage than anything else on here since I've been on the forums.. I'd take E85 any day of the week if it's available

 

stuff like this makes me definately want to go with an aem and get it tuned properly

 

Bling over function makes me

 

Well looks like steve from next door isnt the person you want tuning your car

 

Thats why it took me so long to find a tuner...didn't want this to happen to me.


Devin Schultz FTW

 

thought you had a built 2.0?? what was your final numbers again with the green? I personally think this was a great tune for the money

 

somehow I don't think the owner agrees.
