bye bye engine
Well, it looks like it's the end of engine #1. She made it to 65K miles before losing a seal. Checked the compression just now, 75psi all around on the rear rotor(which is bad to begin with), and 80-40-40 on the front. Really couldn't have come at a worse time. Beginning of summer, slow at work, and sevenstock's coming up in 3 months. Oh well, **** it, life goes on. Look for a large street port and single turbo in the future.

My motor would smoke excesively on start up. after i put the cluch in I drove easy for while to break the clutch in. So on moday i was past the break in perion and decided to test out the new clutch and the drag radials aand top acceleration, the run when excellent but when i pulled over i notice eratic idle 500-750 rpm and white smoke 
. I drove it 20 miled home but couldnt get compression over 3000 rpm. I parked in the garage. The next day car started up but couldnt idle. Started if up again there was a loud screetching nois and it died. decided not to mess with it anymore.
My signs were hi idle and heavy smoke on startup.
Moral of the story is-Dont open the car up unles the motor is strong.

Sorry to hear that. Good luck with the new one. I just went through the whole my engine is blown thing, but I just found out I'm running great compression. So as for your car...I hope you have it at 7 stock too. I'm thinking of taking my FC there. I'll leave the FD home this year.

I had some gas dilution going on and a lot of oil consumption under hard driving. The car was running good on the weekend. I made 271 RWHP @ 10psi a few months ago on DP, CB, intake, and FMIC. I had no signs of detonation when she let go. Debt sucks, but it looks like it's time to max out my credit card. At least now I got a project to work on.
