Thanks guys,

I'll stick the stocker in it and keep it. It was my first car, and i can't let it go that easily. I wonder what it will feel like with 50HP again? Bright side is, it can once again become my daily driver. Bryan, thanks for the offer, but i can't do it. This motor will be torn down, and parted out. I'll get a few "trophy" parts out of it to toss on the shelf.

I'll be in the garage this weekend working on the split.

But, on the flip side....welcome to the 1600 club.

that really sucks Pete... sorry to hear about that man. Throw your stocker
in it, and just enjoy your car as a daily driver again for a while
