i cant seem to stop blowing up sohc motors, my first was a d15b7 that overboosted (wastegate stuck shut), bent the rod
second motor was a b7/y8 mini-me, died of oil starvation, spun a rod bearing (oil pickup tube vibrated loose)
now this is the third. hopefully it'll last a while...
btw if anybody is in the chattanooga area i HIGHLY recommend arrow machine shop. they got me rock rings, rod bearings, and main bearings for $105, and honed the cylinders for $20. did a damn good job of it too, and got it back to me the day after i gave it to them. im definitely taking my ---- there in the future. now i get to learn how to plastigauge, yea

Has that engine bay been posted before? It looks like I've seen it before. Maybe because it's a boosted D
