Well what ever it was. I glad things turned out ok. I was expeciting my motor to be shot, with the metal in the oil pan.

And I was thinking I wouldn't have my car back for another year. :headache:

But I'll say this I'm going to start to be much gentler on my car. I haven't launched it yet with the new set up.

And I haven't NLTS yet. I've been doing things gradual. 1 gear pulls, easy shifts, etc.


Another thing I forgot to mention is I put in a 170 degree thermostat and so far it's looking like it solved my temp issues.

At the high points my temps only reach 206.

Most of the time they sit right at about 196.

Used to be even if I was just cruising into work my temps would reach 216-220.
