I have two garages with reasonable clearance. But they're both full of s**t.

Violent Intervention I went to pull the engine today to open it up and asses the damage. and it ******** snowed. 3" of really cold wet s**t. The forcast said it'd be sunny. assess, not asses (more than one male donkey or more than one a**).

I got bored, so I took the durango for a spin.
It has a very sensitive throttle. sweatdrop And the gas station attendant said I did a very nice powerslide on the way in. xd

Not a spun bearing, but I need to rebuild the bottom end. And I don't want to spend that much money on a 6-cyl.
So now I try to find a V-8 or another I-6 for cheap.

Yes, I'm looking for a V-8 (302, preferrably) now, depending on cost.
Anyone know if a 302 will get mileage about the same as a 300? Granted I don't keep my foot into it all the time. sweatdrop

Granted I don't keep my foot into it all the time. sweatdrop no, the 300 will get the best milage. hands down. the 302 will be buzzing at higher rpm's due to the lack of torque. anyways, just slap some rod/main bearings in it. it aint hard, all you got to do is pull the pan.

It's not just bearings. I have to get the crank turned because it's got some wicked a** scoring on it, and that means oversized bearings yaddayadda.
And I think it's piston slap now, because I can't find and spun bearings which would cause a knocking sound. >.> So I'll pull the pistons out tomorrow and take a look.
And if all else fails, I'll go rebuild the whole ******** anyway. But I'm broke, like, $300 total funds broke. I can't afford to rebuild the engine completely, and I need my truck back soon. Getting to work in -5*C weather on my bike sucks.

Number Three piston had a spun bearing on the rod, which I didn't see when I took the bottom end apart the first time. >.> The knocking is solved.
But the camshaft gear is missing three teeth. Can someone explain how the ******** camshaft gears are broken, and if I need to replace the whole camshaft.

I might be getting a 302 for my truck, seeing as the 6 will cost about $400 at this point. stare
At least I'll have a real V-8 for a while. Until that blows up in my face and I have to put my 300 back together to run it.
