      so just having water in the coolant system fucked your engine? Why did you just put water in there in the first place.

      Sucky situation though, I know a guy that was redoing an old plymouth and he overlooked something and fucked it up as well.

      We've come to the point where no extraordinary preformance can occur without the presumption that someone has cheated.

          my roomie once forgot to mix coolant with the water, and had some of it freeze up in his system.... he was able to thaw it all out. just started it, let things melt, and watched the temp so it doesn't overheat.

            Ya, water expands when it freezes:icon_geek:

            That sucks, sorry to hear. I could see where one could forget about that. Hope everything works out with your woman too.

                  Well if one of you want to pay to put a another V8 or L67 in it, i'm all for it, but I just don't have the time or money. I plan on just putting a 4.3 V6 from a 95 camaro in it. Then probally sell it.

                      that sucks. moving back from AZ to the frozen tundra, that was one of the first things I did was to make sure the coolant mix was good to at least -20 .

                      arent those caddy motors a dime a dozen? I know one of my freinds bought a running parts car for like, $175.

                      just get a new engine, done.

                      at least it was only an 87, and not an 88. that would have really sucked.

                      EDIT: and arent those camaro V6's are 3.4L, not 4.3?
