omfg NEVER take your car to a dealer shop[good wrench]and have them check your car

i sat there plain as day and said "Im pretty sure its a spun bearing or something in the block" and they were like "ok well check it out and get it back to you by tomorrow!"

so they jsut call adn say "We might have bad news, it looks like its oming from teh block, but we'll run more tests on it! we've had it in high RPMs and have worked around the engine all day!"

-_-...

Call them up and tell them u already told them the most likely problem which means they shouldnt be revving the motor up like that anyways, and that you will not be paying for the inspection time they took to find what you already knew. if they have a problem with that u will be by to pick up ur keys asap

I agree 100% with what Specter said, if need be call and talk to the repair manager and let him know that you knew it was an internal problem from the beginning and his shop crew was running your motor at high RPM, potentially causing more damage than when it went in.

dont pay for anything, all they did is cause more damage. drain the oil, if you have silver and copper colored metal shavings come out, you have a spun bearing.

Ok so i talked to them boys today and they said yes there was a spun bearing (woohoo they win the inteligent award..) and that it had been for a while (from one of the previous owners) they said they guy had been running thicker oil to hide it. They also said he had tuned the engine like way more then i knew about, it was suped up with a bunch of drag strip crap. So they're putting in a Jasper Engine in it (they said it was teh same as the LT1) but i cant find any specs on it, anybody know anything?
