Well....I was driving home from Radford this last Sunday and had got going on the interstate with me and two other friends of mine. I was about 5 minutes away when my oil light came on and started flashing, so I pulled off, filled up the oil and got some gas and kept driving. About 10 minutes later there was smoke coming out of my exhaust...so I paid it no mind since I was thinking it was some oil I spilled is probably burning off. Well, 5 minutes later my car starts with the loudest knock i've ever heard....then just shuts off...I try to restart it, but the noise just gets worse...long story short, I pull over get it towed to the nearest delearship and before we even went to see wtf needed to be fixed, I noticed a hole (that I could almost fit my fist through) in my block, right below my header. Get my mom on the phone, she gets a dolly and comes picks us up the next day. So I guess the only good thing I'll get out of this is an H22, but I still don't have the money to pay for it

 

were you runnin under any boost or spray?

I did this on my stock motor w/ 14PSI...

truck would start and run... but it was kinda rough...

 

I'm still runnin the stock bottom end... just about 1/2 the boost

couldnt afford to beef up the bottom end at the time...

 

ouch, sorry to hear it.

 

no...all I have is an exhaust and a clutch right now...I'm going to get the engine taken out today...I'll have some pics later.

 

my old 1.6 looked like that from 8psi haha

 

Do you have any clue why you lost oil? or does it leak?

I'm sorry to hear about it man... I know your pain...

 

Well, they said my head gasket blew and then my pistons starting knocking against each other and then shot a rod right through the block...I have pieces of my block on top of my valve cover. My mom's flippin out cuz I wanna take it somewhere else than where she wants to (they want almost 2g's in labor to do the H22 swap) plus the cost of the engine.

 

fuk that drew, get someone to do it off the board or billy which will only charge like 5-700 for install,

 

thats sucks dood I'm sorry
