tII just died =(

Was driving to kfc for my girl and i hear a click that sounded like a rock hitting the fire wall. so i hit the clutch and the car was idling fine costing at 40 so i let it go into 4th and the motor was acting like it was bogged down or only getting 1/2 the fuel so i clutched and pulled over and the car died before i stopped. now it wont start. if i crank it and give it gas it will start for .5 sec and then die, when it starts it hits 1krmps then drops dead.

going to comp test in to morning and listen to it crack with the plugs off. i know most 13bs will run and idle like **** even when blown.

any one have any suggestions or any locals that want to help me out can call me 24/7 305-490-6987 =) <3
