In other news, about the high oil consumption...mine drank a ton before it eventually blew, just sayin....

Motor #2....Zero consumption.

LOL yes, definitely one of the longest installs. And like I had said, I am normally one to jump on things and get it done asap with mods... but man I've been dragging this one out.

I really hope this isn't a precursor... blah. Out of warranty too, so i'd be looking for a new block.. i stumbled on one yesterday on ebay for 2500..... 30k miles. Lets just hope it doesn't resort to that.

On another note, after starting the car yesterday after tapping the hole to check for leaks, I was pointing out to my friend what i hear as the death rattle when oil isn't topped off to the full line. However, after closer listening, it wasn't coming from the timing chain area (passenger side of the engine) this time... instead it was coming from right above the cylinders. It almost sounded like it was the lifters. I wasn't low on oil, but I wasn't at the full line(which i've noticed if not, the engine really starts making noises). I hope the lifters making noise ALSO aren't a precursor to something about to happen
