Nah, I DONT think I blew the entire motor, just the head… But replacing a head would probably cost what I’d want to spend on the ls1/ls2
All diagnostics will be done today and ill def let you guys know, Nah, doesnt turn over, like I said, I believe I jumped timing which is why it makes the odd clicking sound but not turning over.
Regaurdless im swapping the motor one way or another, my original plan was to sell my stock motor for pretty much the same price as I’d be buying the ls1/2 and only having spending doe on labor which woulda been awesome. If the motor is bad, im def spending some loot this winter, I estimate around $6-7k minimum seeing how I still need a tranny, probably a t56. Not too bad tho seeing how the e39 m5 motor I orignally wanted is 10k with no labor lol.
