Ahhh No!

Overheated my car today.. several times, after the radiator cracked. Bye bye engine, I know. I dont plan on driving the car again until I replace the engine, radiator, and thermostat. I needed to know where I can get a good rebuilt engine, how much it will cost, and what kind of radiator I should put in. I am pissed at the plastic one, so Im thinking aluminum. Is there anything else I should replace while I am fixing these things?

you sure the motor is done? just because it overheated doesn't rule out that it survived.

^^^ Yep!

Do the coolant seal check before you rule that motor out.

Whats the coolant seal check? And the engine has 174k on it so either way I think I should get a rebuild.. its either now or later.
