    I have a 1997 GTP 2 door coupe with 161,000 miles on it,a previous owner put a 3.4 pulley on the supercharger and i didnt do my research and the end result is virtually destroyed pistons. the car still has enough compression to start and run but not very well and fuel is getting into the oil. The transmission and all the other mechanical components of the car work great but the motor will need replaced for sure,oh and i have a zzp 3.8 pulley that will go with the car. the car is located in Lima Ohio and will need to be trailered,I'm asking $1,000
