Today after the socal mini meet i went up the 405 to meet up a few homies. With my g/f tired i decided to head home for some r&r. On the way home, traveling east on the 10, my engine when by by. I was only going like 65 and I was with in my boost limits but something gave. Engine changed noise and power droped.

I drove home from western exit to calstate la jsut going slow. Any applied power cause a knocking noise.

getting off the freeway it souned like it was running on either 2 or 3 cylinders. So probably blew a rod, colapsed a piston, or blew some rings. Either way im F****** up the butt now. Im just glad i was able to limp home.

So soon i might actually have my trubo set up for sale. Cus if i rebuild the 5s im not truboing it. And if i swamp for a red top im not guna need the trubo.

What do u guys think rebuild the 5s? If so what kind a pistons and connecting rods should i get. Compression wise and company wise, where can i find them. What else do i want

Should i do a BEAMS swamp? if so what tranny should i use?

Should i d a 3sgte?

im so sad i think im guna cry.

some warranty company.

Ill try the oil trick today to find out if its the rings or the gasket.

However becasue the two cylinders that are both at 60 are right next to eachother im pretty sure its the head gasket.

however oil looked fine. and the coolant look ok too. Could it be possible that the gasket broke in a place that didnt affect the coolant or oil path ways?

Also if it were the rings then why would the compressed stuff come out of the 3 cylinder when doing 4 and vise versa???
