Hahaha if it's already on it's way out I'm going to salvage the good parts so I can get some $$ for them before they go bad. I'm actually kind of excited, is that wrong?

I'm planning on it

Actually if I can sell the Radix to pay for a 402 or 408 shortblock I may just go ahead and do that regardless of whether or not I find a problem with my motor. Just need to find myself a good $500 DD, since my mom is selling the Suburban. As of Friday I'll be out of a vehicle.

Thanks

My buddy has an early 90's teal green Acclaim that he used as a DD while he was building his 72 El Camino, I sent him an email to see if he still has it for sale. If so, that'll be the one!!

I think I just decided that I'm going to go ahead and pull the motor and not even bother trying to fix it. Damn....only 20K on it too. Oh well.
