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

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.
