Blown Motor, Engine Rebuild/Replacement.

COSMO

Sorry but sold my old house and my car is at a friends house. The only thing needed is to bleed the clutch and fill with antifreeze. The gtm base map is in there so I will run that long enough for the engine break-in then go to tampa for my final tune and install my 1000cc injectors.. This really sucks because I'm so close....

All good things come in time, look forward to seeing you back up and running. Congrats on the new place.

What did you end up doing with your cracked exhaust manifold? Sorry if it was already posted and I missed it.

Had a bit of fab work done to it and also supported that side of the turbo with a metal strap... Only time will tell..

Update for an awful day with my car. To make a long story short I found out that when my vsr built my motor they did not replace my rear main seal. Needless to say when I went to start the car today oil was coming out at a steady stream. Is it just me or wouldn't you think they would have replaced that when rebuilding my new motor? At this point I'm Disgusted.

String of bad luck bro. I hope they resolve it but fixing it at no cost.

esfourteen

they absolutely should have replaced it, but why is it leaking so badly? sounds like its damaged or theres a lack of RTV in the upper pan area somewhere

Bobby offered to fix it and they would cover to transport it to vsr but at this point I don't feel too confident on too may things...

COSMO

You can actually see the rtv pushed out where it is connected so I think it's just a faulty seal. He tried to say that I should have noticed it and used my old rear main seal to into the new motor. At that point I went off.....

Cell

That's bad business practice.

Shti for luck. Pull the tranny and get er done. Modifying cars can be a pain in the butt sometimes.

COSMO

Bobby at vsr is supposed to be arranging for transport to have my car shipped to the shop and will fix at no cost to me. Once this is done I will fly down and drive around FL to put break in the motor so he can tune the car with the 1000cc injectors. Right now I'm running the gtm base map with the 600cc injectors. I can tell you my next car will already be FI because this whole ordeal has costed me a lot of time and money with No happy ending thus far...

I know how you feel

COSMO

Infidel did they ever get you up and running?

ANMVQ

Mine will also, I know I didn't spend as much coin as you but the next car for me will also be FI.
Do not want to travel that road again. GL will come
