Fire man said looks like an electrical fire. I think one of my fuel lines caused it.

Dude.....after seeing those pictures I'd doubt the block is salvageable. Better pray that the intense heat didn't weld the metal and lock up the motor.

Also thank you to everyone who was able to come over to help and those who just stood around.

Blizzard Tuning has been up since Me, Greg, and Will was together. I'm pretty sure it won't die just because of a fire to a car or some complications with customer work. They are growing and learning. Just look at the requirements for a mechanic for hire, they must have atleast 2-10 years experience and certified. Will and Truedson are still novice in this industry, but they have potentials. Just like all of us enthusiast that have worked on our cars and other people's car, we all have potentials. It all comes down to what you are willing to tackle on for a job and learn from it. My car is a breathing example of Blizzard Tuning and how they have helped me with task I don't have the tools for.

And I take blame for using such a ****ty welder to begin with. Where its actually leaking I didn't get a chance to go throw with the welder at school. look at Truedsons down pipe set-up and come talk more sh!t about my welds.

As a matter of fact crawl underneath karls mr2 and look at the plates that are welded underneath the car.
