Ok, i understand what your saying, i think budget wise at this time, i cant afford to buy a second block. im hoping to get the motor pulled today and maybe have enough time to open it up and see what broke. depending on condition of the motor, i might just do a rebuild on it and run it the way it is with OEM internals so i can get it running and out to the track to start learning the car and what i should and shouldnt be looking to upgrade.
