Angry blown motor!!!!

I blew the motor in my '00 and need to rebuild the engine internals..... I need new rods, pistons, injectors and heads. My heads are corroded so bad that they won't seal. I need some help as to what to get. I have no idea, so any suggestions are really appreciated.

Sal has a great lineup on motor parts. As do all of the Tuners...

You can get what any of the 3 major guys use directly from them.


I think Sal's bottom End kit is around $1900. Im not to sure bu tI think New Heads totally ported and all are arounf $2500 or so??? I may be wrong on that....

I had my heads done locally for about $1000 which included the oversize mod max valves. I should have the truck running this next week and know how well it is going to do.

Sorry to hear about the motor but gives you a good excuse to beef her up now. If you dont mind me asking what mods were you running when the motor went and what happened? Also was it at the track when it happened or street? How many miles on the motor?
Any info would be great.
Thanks
