Don't know yet, block needs to be put on a stand and torn down to be recycled as scrap. I suspect at least one bent rod, but we won't know till it is torn down further...

you still interested in my engine? It needs to be refreshed, and the belts need to be done, but other than that it ran great when i pulled it! The only thing is that i stole the rubber boot off of the wiring harness, so the pcm plug is depinned, you'd just need to find another boot and repin the plug and it'll be good to go!

yes!

And the whole harness is still in the car, I would just need to swap some stuff around.

Let me know what you want to do.

That will buff right out .

Hey it might have a heck of a carreer ahead of it as a Lemons car though.

Yikes, Man that is some work to do.
