Hey, I had an overheat after waterpump belt snapped on freeway. Knocked & stalled out, still runs very nice surprisingly. Leaks coolant into cylinders, smokes a little now. Didn't smoke at all before-hand. 150K on the block, after overheat the rod bearings were fried. I didn't drive it on the knock. I installed new bearings and they have been working flawlessly with nice oil pressure. I bought a remanufactured head because I figure mine is warped.
It's a 2.0 N/A, does anyone suppose this would blow a rod or piston rings in the next 20K miles? Not sure of the upkeep on those 150,000 miles but I figure they weren't too harsh since it runs very smooth and didn't smoke blue. I plan on new timing belt, auto tensioner, waterpump, and radiator as well.
Thanks, any input would be nice to save me from a mistake that I may go through with anyway.
