last night i was in 3rd gear in between 4 & 4.5k rpms & shifted to 4th but started to come to a yellow light so i quickly braked & downshifted to 3rd again right away never even hit the gas in 4th & was off of the gas completely at this point. the rpms kept rising even as i came to a stop & i put the clutch in & threw it in neutral as soon as i saw the rpm's climbing. they stayed at around 6k until i shut the car off maybe a second later...& all the oil spilled out of the block. i wont know for sure what exactly is wrong until i get the car up in the air but it seems like there's a hole in the block. i'm trying to gather my options....the best thing to do would be to either do a full swap or get something else? i was not redlining in any gear neither have i ever bounced off the rev limiter in this car. it's a 95 GT w/ a gt-four front conversion. 90k original miles. oil was always changed religiously.

the first thing i said when i saw the hole was "now me & the mad scientist gotta rip apart the block..." lol. i'll deff look around some more i was doing a lot of research while at the shop earlier but fell asleep right when i got home cause i didnt sleep at all last night. i feel so bad for her. that engine should have lasted a longggg time. Definitely want to go 5s again though as i feel i'm not ready for a swap yet. If only the head blew i'd just get a 3sgte head.
