Did an oil change and......

My buddy can do ANYTHING!, his truck runs 12 seconds, he bored, ported and polished, stroked, everything you can imagine to his engine all by himself. He can paint anything and is awesome at that too. In fact he is repainting my front bumper for me right now.

He is making business cards and is going to be passing them out at local cruise nights.

He is also a diesel mechanic.

My car will be in the shop for the next 3-5 days, after that I can meet up whenever, he is trying to get his name out so if you like his work spread the word.

He charges 17 - 20 dollars an hour for painting (pretty damn cheap) plus the cost of the paint.

Thats really good... now does he have a garage if I wanted to get the bottoms of my doors repainted and my front and rear bumper?

He has a whole shop, just have to show him the work needed and he can do it.

As far as the original subject goes, the head gasket was slowly getting worse each day (found this out after inspecting the gasket), I then took a look into the block, only to see the number two piston is half melted and the cylinder wall is gouged out thirty thousandths.

My instructors who are both ASE Master Techs said that it's been happening slowly over time and that I did not cause this problem.

I called the guy who sold me the car, threatened to take legal action and bam he bought me a new motor.

Going to pick up the new engine and a slew of new parts.
