yeah your right but sometimes i was running rich which you can tell.but thatsalwaysa possibility. at this point i think im gonna jus take it in and have a look see at what i got, prolly another 3 grand which if thats the case i might just sell it lol.

 

Were you running stock boost? Do a wet/drt compression test and post the results.

 

Ok so i took it to a local mechanic, but i called around and everyone referred me to this guy who knows his was around the 4g63. he checked the oil and found metal shavings, i was there to confirm this, nonetheless, he came to a conclusion that it was my piston pin. thats why it sounded like it was in the head. he also said my best bet would be to sell it, or he said i could get a jap motor with less than 30k miles for somewhere between 2200-2500 or he could rebuild it, machine hone and build it up with eagle and other performance components, and have the crank machined to prevent crank walk. he said that would run me about 3500. what do u guys think, this was my daily driver so im left without a car. what do u think i could get out of the mods and then sell the rest, opinions please lol

 

Try calling around for a used short block, thats probably the cheapest way to go abt it.

 

this guy was planning on picking up a long block, or maching out this one

 

Is the head damaged, it should still be usuable.

 

the head should be good it was just rebuilt 2k ago but we wont know for sure till it gets pulled off of there
