Hey everyone,

so its not a TOTAL loss because I have a near completed 3S-GTE sitting in the garage. but was wondering if it would be semi-'easy' to repair this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTWFLFDgtow

so I can get the engine finished...

any help or suggestions?

Thanks,
Kevin

if you stopped driving it as soon as you felt a power loss, you could PROBABLY get away with just replacing the bearings and squeeze another 10,ooo miles out of it... in that contition id say the motor will last at MOST 20 miles
