Think it's gone, no holes in the block, sounds like I dropped a valve

Anybody have any leads on a head/block? I might have to part the car and sell it as I don't know if I can afford to get it back on the road

Dang dude, sorry to hear that. Make me want to do my valve retainers just incase to be on the safe side eventhough i babied my car. You just never know what the previous owner had done to it.

Yes already, with my luck, I should have known this would happen sooner or later


And this is just 1 day after my new wheels came in




The good thing is that I have an extended warranty, but I'm not sure how good it is. I've been waiting all morning for the company to open so I can call and ask about it. Hopefully they can take care of it, if not, I already have 1 offer of a block/head

I guess I find out Monday what the verdict is. I had it towed to Bankston this morning, and, so far, no compression in 1 and 2.
