At this point i don't want to go into the story....

this is the part list after the engine came out and apart
the block/ head is fine as soon as i can get pistons/ rods in the block will go with them to be turned/ matched etc.

1 set of connecting rods (right bank all done left side fine)
1 set pistons complete (right bank all done left side fine)
1set thrust washer
1 set of connecting rod bearing shell
2 pieces radial shaft seal
1 set valve guide seal (32 pieces)
2 engine mounts (one rubber bushing/ ring got torn)
1 set spark plugs NGK BKR7EIX
3 containers/ pc silicone sealant
complete engine gasket set

I'm hoping / praying for a lot of advice/ references/ info
I need all the parts above but a short block w/ rotating parts will do i think

I want/ need my car running ASAP but also i don't want this to happen again-suggestions welcome/ be nice, this hurts already

 

scary...sorry man

 

wouldnt it be cheaper to buy a long block....well, maybe not over there. dunno if they have junkyards like we do.


i know you said you don't wanna go into the story but you can post something like this and not get asked anyways so i gotta ask, how did this happen?

 

I'm curious too.....the last thing I remember you were sorting out some issues that came up after your car was released from customs. It sounded to me like you were figuring it all out and things were looking up for you but now I read this and it sounds like something really bad is going on

What's going on?

 

ok....

well between **** gas, attempted theft of the safc and zt2 during shipping, and 8-10 lbs boost (haven't gone past 5K since it came to turkey -2.6" pulley):/, then the Knock sensor went out on the right side bank 2 and it was actually Knocking but the code said the sensor was bad (wondering why only one side not both), that's what i figure

thats basically it without going all into it, which I will as soon as it's fixed w/ pics and all.

anybody got any suggestions/ info?
there is a whole motor for sale for 1500+ ship but i don't need the whole thing just the pistons/rods etc. if i had the pistons/ rods I could send them off with the block, and work on the rest of the stuff w/out too much trouble, help me out guys/girls

update: just got some numbers back from carson, 200 a ea for pistons 100 ea for rods, for that i can buy the above mentioned motor but still there's the time to ship

 

Talk to Jeff

Sucks but look at the positive side, it gives you a chance to beef up your internals . Goodluck!

 

I actually contacted lextreme first and will be going through him for forged internals but can't wait for them to get built right now (10 weeks)

I really need to find some stock rods/ pistons shipped asap so i can send the block off and the rest is relatively easy oem stuff, here in turkey these parts don't exist but the labor is much cheaper than the states

 

man...for 2k for forged parts, might look into lsx motor swap.

 

not really interested in the whole lsx thing, 1uz for me.

 

at this point I'm looking at a short block, and then ordering/ waiting for stronger parts.

 

He doesn't...

 

Still waiting for that long story

 

not till its fixed

parts on the way............
