Piston Rod Shot Through Block 100k
I just bought a 2g and I have only had it for about 3k, I was driving home and I heard a loud boom. Of course the tow truck towed it home. I looked under the hood and there is a hole in the block just to the left of the dipstick. Should i just rebuild my 7bold since there is not many miles or should i build up a 6bolt and swap it in. Any seggestions would be awsome. Thanks again  |

Re: Piston Rod Shot Through Block 100k
You can't rebuild a block with a big ol' hole in the side of it. Do the 6 bolt swap and be done with it.

Re: Piston Rod Shot Through Block 100k
i hear that 7 bolts these days are just as good. that's what i've come to believe.
you could swap in a SBC 350 and be done.

Huh? Do you believe in Santa Claus too?
Do the 6 bolt and be done with it. Better yet just do a 2.4L. |

Do the 6 bolt. I've played the 7 bolt card twice and regretted it both times.

Please explain the difference to me between the 2.0 6bolt and the 2.4 6 bolt when it comes to a "daily driver".
Odds are he would build both motors....

figured there would be more downtime with the 2.4L build, while the 2.0 would just be a buy and pry.
but if he's building both
2.4.

Good point .
Both can be interesting to find as far as cores are concerned at times.
