yeah the rod blew through the front end of the bottom of the oil pan. Cost is a concern to an extent. I don't really want to put more than 4k total into it if possible. The more I look for a good used motor, the more i cringe because they're all over 100k miles. been looking at a refurb but then im not sure what companies to trust and what companies will sell directly to me without a middle man. its a bit overwhelming, especially when reviews seem too good to be true at times.
