Mights as well post the bad news. Friday night at cordova i believe i dropped a vavle in the GT and the engine is basically a goner. (lots of clanken lol). I am gonna have trouble pulling the funds together because it is my daily driver rain or shine, hell even snow. I am looking at a livernoise built block if i can get the money together. I don't want this kind of destruction happening agian. So if anyone can help in any way (I mean parts/advice) send me the info. Did run a 12.50 flat lol
