Ok let me first say that zfjohnson bought the car not running from the PO and the damage wasnt discovered till this video.
Enjoy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4w8a48mRdgc...be_gdata_player Right now he is debating his options- replace the shortblock, swap in a 4age, or upgrade to GT driveline and seap in an S series engine |

Aluminum is superior to steel for building engines because
it is stiffer, transfers heat better and it weighs half as much as steel. All aluminum engines, at least 99.9% of them, have steel sleeves or jugs in them because aluminum doesnt stand up to piston rings scraping back and forth like steel does. I would take aluminum over steel anyday, it just costs alot more. At the scrap yard steel is $25 a ton while aluminum is 30¢ a pound. Do the math |
