Just learn from the failure and think of the positives. Get the car in the shed, start planning the repair and what the new engine is going to look like. Remember it's only an engine and it can all be fixed. Much better than smashing the car or hurting yourself.Benny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would contact a good tuner near you and see if they can help you out. try the forum sponsors on here, and they will prol be sympathetic and try to help you out. when the new block goes in, get a good tune done. shouldnt have alot of probs after that....good luck poor fella!
