It all depends on your budget what you should do. Did you throw a rod out the side of the block, if so thats junk.

I would call one of the tuners and buy a built short block. I would laso send them the heads off the stock engine, maybee they can be saved. If so they can install the heads on the built short, allong with the timing chains. that would make your work a lot easier.

any of the tuners can whip you up a kickass block. i prefer psp.

:confused:

You mean like piston slap? Sound like a diesel?

If you have a good dealer, see what you can do to fight to get it fixed, unless you've just got the 10k in cash laying around for a good built long block.... Then go for the whole works!!
