DrLeadFoot Posted February 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 Motor is at C&S. Hopefully they can bring it back to life. Cylinder #2 had water in it and was rusty. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jc43089 Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 I've seen that before, and it cleaned up with a quick honing. Depends on how deep it is pitted though. It will just retain oil better, some call it 'seasoning". DrLeadFoot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B C Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 🤢 Frustrating news! I'd like to see a picture of the crack if you can take one. What is next? S52+2? Or finally going to get that Cobalt SS you've always wanted? Daggerty, patsbimmer1 and i_love_cars 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrLeadFoot Posted February 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 She gone. Gotta pick it up from C&S and I will take pictures. Asking for a friend: He wants to boost but need an aluminum block so his e30 can still be an e30 when he wants to hit the twisties. He was thinking LS2 with lower compression pistons. What head? Cam? He is a noob when it comes to the bowtie lifestyle so he asked me to thank you all in advance for any advise.

DrLeadFoot Posted February 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 Starting to get hits on a lot of items. It's all for sale. Hit me up! I'm looking for a S4.10 or open 4.10 in good condition. Anyone want to swap to 2.79 gears and get into the ZF320 trans?

i_love_cars Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 is this where I put my vote in for an LS swap? Let's not dwell on the past. Let's look at the bright future of a rumbling, MPG-killing V8. DrLeadFoot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
