I cant belive it.

I was supposed to go to the dyno today for my motor that was just completed for my turbo coupe. Yesterday i found coolant all in my oil. I couldnt find what the problem was. Late last night i found out that one of the sleeves is cracked or leaking were you cant see it.

I had the block at a machine shop nothing was discovered. I guess were one of the sleeves is pressed or glued in it is leaking.

I'm completely fed up. I have spent a fortune on all new parts to build it only to find out i have to pull the motor back out and completely tear it down and have it fixed/resleeved. Especially because i bought this motor so i wouldnt have to do this. I have athe old GSR motor still on the stand. I guess it will be a few more months on this never ending project. Anytime i have tried to take a short cut like buying a used sleeved block it has bit me in the ass!!. It isnt not the persons fault who sold it to me because i dont think they knew but this whole situation just sucks

I also have a stack of $20 bills in front of me, therefore 20>50 and 20>100 and 20>1000. $20 bill FTW.

Isn't Not = it is....but I know what you mean.

I bought the block from Moorespeed12 (Tony) and was told the block was perfect.

Ron, If there is ANYTHING what so ever I can do please feel free to PM me. I wanted to post that I sold you the block before people start talking shit. Please feel free to PM me or call me, you have the number. Also I have PM'd you. I will do what I can to correct this problem. Again, sorry man, I had no idea and I have already PM'd Tony.

Sorry again Ron.

Kris
