    The engine is on the stand now. We'll probably get the heads off and the oil pan off tonight.

            Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
            Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
            Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
            Torque is how far you take the wall with you

                  The engine done be broke. A nasty rod knock. I've got pics of the shitty bearing that I'll put up later.

                  As far as a faster car, I don't think that is a problem. His shit doesn't even run. This engine problem is after having a clutch go out, chipped pinion gear and now this. lawlz Camaro FTL

                    Wow, it sounds like your little brother has bad luck with cars! So is he paying you $40-$50 an hour for all your hard work?

                            :icon_scratch: Looks like a spun rod bearing. Excess clearance or lack of lubracation.

                            CMK, how many miles on it?

                              Lack of lubrication. The #5 bearing was the one that is fawked, and the #7 bearing turned out to be spun.

                              120k or so on the motor.

                              My brother brought the car home one Friday night with it knocking like that. Earlier that week I was helping him with a squeaky belt tensioner and a coolant leak and ended up adding 3 quarts of oil to it. He done blowed it up. 3 quarts low + cold starts + teenage driver = dead LS1
