Manley I beam Rods
AMS Spec JE Pistons
Cosworth Rod bearings
Stock crank, stock sleeves

Yes, it was just built, the car literally just came outta storage...

Thanks fellow Blaine peeps. Who wants to have a motor pull session? Beer and pizza is about all I can offer.

I guess it could come to that, but I need to know the shortblock can be salvaged and thats if DB doesn't do anything for me, I have no idea what they are going to say.

Who knows, this seriously blows.

I didn't give up last time, but this is probably the last straw...the car will probably be sold unless something is worked out. No idea what to even price it at, 18k maybe, the car only has 28k on the clock. And the shortblock isn't vented so who knows. I sure don't...FML.

This always sucks, no fun blowing shit up with that low of mileage. I'm pretty close by and could give a hand if needed.

Hopefully they do something for you since they built and tuned it.
