Ok your post was a little difficult to read I need my decoder ring. Im assuming your truck stopped running, and caught on fire and all that good stuff?

Could be due to the 2# upper 8# lower and no Maf extender?

What area of the truck is the oil coming from? Usually thats not a good sign. It usually means you threw a rod if the oil is coming fron the motor area. Not good. Get with Mike and Mitch to see if they cant help you diagnose your problem. If all else failes Mithc has a direct lne to JDM and can get you a new motor for a small fee.

yeah thats what im afraid of i know oil is not a good sign and neither is a slightly bent oil dipstick. i think the fire melted the wires to the trans and thats why i could get it in park.

Sorry I cant help anymore than that right now. I hope you get it straightened out. Usually Im pretty optimistic, but unfortunatly this time I have to be a little pesimistic. Do you have a way to get in touch with them?

So I hear. First you were going to sell the truck now your going built? I guess Dayrl and Bill gave the money tree to you. After your done with it can I borrow it?

Looks like I may have the only stock block soon. Oh well Im used to being the slowest anyways.

Default Sorry to Hear about Motor

Check the lower part of the block by the starter for a small hole sounds like a major problem though Sorry to hear about it. PM me if you need anything to look for I let one go but it was easy to tell what happened to it all 8 rods let go. If I can help let me know just installed two JDM motors back to back Mitch P.S. I talk to JDM every week I can find the cost of a new motor they aren't cheap but Good The holes in block not a good sign but you will be faster. Good Luck!! Mitch
