Message	Here's what happened to my #6 cylinder, looks like it melted or something. : It didnt seize or ruin the walls, weird... After some wishful speculation of a BHG, I pulled my heads, found this, and gave up.. All that work, and weeks without a car to find a hole in my piston sucked... : I pulled the little bit of my engine and decided to get a used jdm motor. There it is... reinstalled ACT clutch, downpipes, and did a bunch of little us spec conversions, mainly the vacuum hook ups. The VST? wires frayed off so i had to redo and solder them back on... pain in the butt... just finished engine prep... process of setting motor in... Waiting on new motor mounts, driver side broke off while i was pulling the motor---stupid me... : What a MESS!!! I hope this all pays off in the end...I miss driving her... :
