Damn I was going through the thread and figured a dyno video or track vid would be next and BAM chipped pistons... Very sorry to see that fella, get her back together and try again!
I am sorry for your lots. :C
thats from the piston ring bouncing around in the cylinder, actually it wasn't loud at all.. just the sh*t rattling inside the cylinder lol
messed up thing is while data logging with HPTuners, the scanning software never showed any knock at all... sooo my HPT is f**ked up or my knock sensors don't work
That sux dude. I had to sell my 07 when I had my daughter. Id say go for the concept the had for the Colorado SS. Pretty much a 2wd trailblazer setup or just sa f*** it and get a LS1 in there I think it was sum dude in Tennessee that did that not sure been outta that scene for a few years. remember tho in 07 GM made a few changes in the I4 and I5. All this you probably know.
i put the turbo up for sale.. everyone wants it but doesn't have the cash.. so f**k it, im buying another engine and starting over
put a deposit down on an engine yesterday, the yard still has to pull it from the truck.. hopefully i can pick it up sometime this week and drop it in this weekend.. got the complete engine, 32k miles, with accessories and harness for $800
Nice!
Thats not a bad deal.
Oh snap...that blows. Glad to see you got a replacement already.
so i picked it up toady and guess what? the stripped all the accessories and hacked up the harness! f*ckin assholes.... whatever, they sold it to me for $650 instead of $800.. still a better deal than LQK wanting 1200 for one..

those bastards. so... is this one getting the turbo too?
Nice Delivery Truck!!! :th_laugh-lol2:
Glad you got the engine, sux that they hacked all the crap but I think it'd be better to just have the main engine go back in and use the parts you have that you KNOW work vs risking a broken wire causing problems or bad sensors or something like that later down the road, now you use all your old stuff with just the motor...
and don't forget the turbo, just get it properly tuned this time :th_jester:
This thread made me jealous, sad, happy, mega sad, and now happy again. VIP award goes to you sir. Nicely done all around. Can't wait to see it goin again
nope, i pulled the starter out and the TC bolts were easy as hell to access, i don't think there's any way i could have gotten a wrench or ratchet in that access hole lol
TADA!!!!!!!
