Discussing selling parts is a non-issue in cases like this. Even if you didn't have enough posts to qualify for starting sale threads, all you were doing was trying to start a build thread. Members just happened to ask you if stuff was available.

:cheers:

So what happened was, a blown headgasket, got coolant in the cylinder, and coolant doesn't compress so something had to give. Twisted the rid, broke the piston, most likely at the wrist pin first, then it's all she wrote from there. TRASH MOTOR.


Did you sell the motor with the truck or keep it for a builder? How bad was the cylinder? Could it be bored and saved or gouges to deep?
