Let me re-phrase my words... The car felt like it had no power as in not having any HORSEPOWER. Like the car felt extremely heavy, like something was holding it back. then when i pulled into the parking lot it turned off and didnt want to CRANK at all, as in engine wont spin. Any ideas?

I will try to spin the Crankshaft pulley manually and see if it spins.....

Doesn't sound good. Sounds like possible oil starvation leaving to seized pistons. I hope for your sake that's not the case. Do you have an oil pressure gauge? Does the light work? Did it ever come on? How about temp when it stalled?

Ok guys ive been really busy with school and work this past week and a half, but i finally had time to run out to the car and see what i could do.

So at first i was going to try to spin the crankshaft pulley with a breaker bar, but i said F*** it I'm feeling kinda lucky so i hooked up a battery and tried cranking it. It took a few cranks but it fired right up!! I couldn't believe it . But there is something i noticed though, from inside the car you cant really hear it because i have open midpipe, but standing right under the hood you can hear somewhat of a ticking sound.

Anybody have some input on that?? i was thinking shims or lifters.......but not really sure.

Insufficient data to compute. You really need to find out what your oil pressure is dude. Then come back with more info to diagnose.
