Re: bad idea or terrible idea?

I honestly don't see how a hole where it is in the block would even weaken it.

Re: bad idea or terrible idea?

Same here, a small hole to vent wouldn't do that much damage.

I am waiting for a response. If this is his 2.3L I know he just had crank problems and just had it fixed. I think his compression ratio was too high for the timing he was running. His budget to get this fixed was tight already. I don't know if he had to buy a new crank or what.

But after spending all that $$$ and probably owing people just to get the car running and then BOOM all gone. Yeah I would be depressed hating DSM for a while also.

I think there was something else the problem and not the vent system. 2.3L turbo mustangs use that trick
I wonder if he ever changed the spark tables...
