Ok a little update ! I blew my motor on the way back from the roto rally .. Ironic it happened just cruising on the highway .. seems like a spun bearing as the motor still starts and has 17 inches of vacume . But its making a very nasty noise .

A little update . I think I'll have some updates thsi weekend . But well motor is out of the car ,and taken apart . it wasnt pretty in there. I should have pictures later today .
looks like It will get rebuilt . started ordering parts from all over . I've got all of 97 cents to my name currently HAH!
engine Pulled, started taking things apart .
stationary gear. gone both look like this front and rear done .
Rotor Gear Gone as well .. Both like this
and
Quite a bit of carbon on the rotors as well I only had the engine for a year..
1 of the housings had some chatter
and a spark plug crack
the oil pump was completely Gone forgot ot take pictures of it , and the Eshaft was bad to from where the bearing originally spun
P.S. I never ran this car low on oil .. it had low Oil pressure form the first day I put it in the car. I figured it was a bad oil pressure sensor. but I guess someone did run the car low on oil beforehand , and that messed up the oilpump which in turn caused this ...
catastrophic damage could of been avoided had I rebuilt the engine back then ..
But now We start the build up.
I got this Lightweight flywheel for a great deal .. it needs ot have the friction plate replaced . but for the price it was hard to pass on
I have a thing against sidegrading , when ever I can I try to upgrade . since hte flywheel is out why not!! ,
