    My dad and I will have it fixed in a week or so. knowing that somthing internal in the engine went out and the fact it was tired and had a leaky rear main. my dad ordered a GM crate engine. the 260 Hp el cheapo model, but has a 3/50 warranty. the salesman actully told him it was a 3/100 warranty but 3/50 is listed in the book. should be here next week. time to break out the cherry picker.

    These base crate engines are the deal of the Century. I put one in a Vette for a guy, easiest r and r I've ever done.

    I think the warranty is 3/100, but it might have changed.
