LOL Look at Captain Obvious up there^^ :D
If its getting a newer motor, why try and fix the the old one?:th_scratchhead:
so just cuz the standard priced purolator couldnt handle the higher pressures the top of the line mobil 1 could, the filter must be the cause of your entire engine failure??
yeah right
hhahahahahaQuote:

Ran the motor for 20 minutes to break in the cam in my driveway, went to change the oil and it had started to suck the filtration media into the engine. The other filter went into the trash. I've run nothing but Fram or Wix since that day. Just my 2 cents.
Wow, switched from Purolator to Fram. Talk about a step backwards.Quote:

by chance is there two gaskets on there? like the old gasket got ripped off and was still there when you screwed on the new filter?
that was the first thing we checked after we got the original filter off that blew the gasket...Quote:

nawzzzzzzz dawgggggggggg.... lol i dont think i would ever spray my car... im lost as to what caused this... doesnt matter .. junkyard picked car up today and hopefully have it back soon.
Warranty FTW!! Hopefully they are giving you a motor with a good blower? Didnt you just put a new coupler in it?
i swapped rotors out i got from u... the motor i bought didnt have the S/C on it... i PM'd ya awhile back to make sure u got my old rotors in return for the ones i got from ya but never heard nothin back.
Oh, yea sorry, i must have lost the pm, i get about 10 a day seriously lol. I got them, they have been stripped down and been recoated they are going in a ported supercharger im doing right now.
There was like no coating on them!! lol
i figured u got alotta messages... thats what carb cleaner will do to a rotor ..hey i did most of the work for ya as far as stripping them down ... lol.
Lol yea i just used some paint stripper and then blasted them. Good to go!! Heres what they look like now:
