I pulled the oilpan off, and a nut on the rod came loose somehow... bearings toast, cranks toast, that rod is toast...
sooo.. looks like it would be better just find a 6g72tt shortblock... considering the cost of money and time to get a crank, bearings, rods, rering, pull the motor, take it apart.. etc etc etc...
anyone know any good spots in cali to get a motor? or anyone have a friend of a friend that has a vr4 motor just chillin? I just dont want to have my pants pulled down over the price.. I would like to just get a short block, as everything else in the car is tip top... I even checked the cam journals.. not a scratch on them... so I can just pull the heads and clean them and everything should be kosher.. I just need a motor..
any suggestions?
