Like I said the only way I would even bother pulling it unless I am pretty damn sure it is possible to salvage the block. If anything is wrong in the lower end, which sounds like its the case, I am hoping a resleeve with new pistons/rods will do the trick. It's still basically a full rebuild but if we want to make a mitsustyle meet out of everyone playing with my car I am fine with that, lol. I don't expect this to be resolved anytime soon...it'll be a while before anything happens I am sure.
