Heres the story on the car, I bought it in Oct. 07 off of tech from Mexicola, with 115k miles on the car. The day before I flew to get it I get a called from him saying the origional motor hydrolocked but he was going to be able to get a 76k mile short block out of a 01 WS6 and I would be able to pick it up the nest weekend, no big deal right?.?.?.? I flew out of Houston (2hrs away from Groves) to Dallas and drove it home, I drove it to work that night, 1 mile each way to work and to the bank, 5miles away, to finish signing the loan papers on it. Halfway home I notice the check gauges light came on, looked down, zero oil pressure http://gfxlovers.com/smilies/imgs/angry/angry026.gif (http://gfxlovers.com/smilies) I immedietly pull to the side of the road and kill it and called a tow truck. It sat at my house for a few days while I tried to sell my third gen to cover the cost of the rebuild ($3600) oil pump went out ant took out the bearings, pistons, crank, etc.. Mexicola basically told me to fuck off it was my problem when I called him about it http://gfxlovers.com/smilies/imgs/violent/violent035.gif (http://gfxlovers.com/smilies)
the car while it was in the driveway waiting to get the motor rebuilt and the third gen before it got sold:

Nice car! I love stories about cars on verge of death and forgottenness(I know it's not a word, lol) and then are sold to someone who brings them back to life and they become bad@$$ rides. Good job on doing just this!

Thanks :) I got royally screwed when I bought it but am in the process of making it a 10 sec DD with A/C, shouldn't be a problem with the prc 5.3's, ms3 and a 150 hit:psj:
My goal is to drive to the track with the a/c and stereo on, run a 10.8 @127 or quicker and drive back home all the the stock 10 bolt
