    jamesivy, 1800 bucks for a spun bearing in 50 feet. all new every thing. shop did rebuild it but took forever to get it done again. think they even tossed him cash back for his labor to re pull the engine and all. thats one guy i know of.

    Dude you told me a couple days ago that the best L67 you could find local was $1,000 with 200,000 miles??? Thats why you decided to do your own top swap when I asked why don't you just change the motor.....

    off cl they all want 500 up. n/a engines are like 300 or less.

    the reason im top swapped, na blocks are dirt cheap next to l67 /l32.

    $200-500 for a l36/26.. of course a n/a should be cheaper and you'll do yet another top swap to it.. typical l32/67 are priced to damn high for whatever reason.

    Ya well since then ive had to find a lot of parts for the swap and was able to come across a couple grand prix graveyards i didnt know existed.

    But all this talk aside lets just hope its not a piston or anything major and all this is a mute point.

    Would it be ok to put my l36 stock heat range plug in the missfiring cylinder to see if it gets any better or worse?

    valve seals just keep oil from dripping down the valve stems. ever see a old car start up and smoke? thats dead v/s's.

    Is there a way to do a case learn wrong? The guy that did it didnt seem to know much about doing one and said something about a buick and the supercharged 3.8. Idk if there is a way to mess that up but figured that the case learn monitors misses so just a thought. (i do not have a code for a case learn)

    case learn code is gone, he did it right. you follow directions, floor it in park, and its done. takes all of a minute tops to do.
