Just get a new motor. Id prolly stay with a quad 4 since they are all over the place, but not so much with ecotecs.

I actualy kinda like when sh** breaks cause it gives a reason to upgrade parts haha...if youve got the money which I never do

Damn man sorry to hear you decided to do that. I parted out my old 99 grand am gt after the motor went, I still have it but its all torn up

How many miles are on the motor? Im looking for a 2.4 tps and iac in good condition. Also what are you doing with the wheels? I want a set of 95-99 z wheels.

Well yet another fun twist to my hell i call my life. I got denied for a loan and my dad just got a new job and my mom in GA has 3 card and a motorcycle she has a loan on so i am official SOL.. so here comes the question of the year they said they would help me with a engine (and i think i may replace the tranny as well since it seems to be the mastermind behind the rod knock) so I am in need of anyone that may have a 2.4 or a auto tranny if nto even that maybe someoen that would like to donate some time to a fellow member down on his luck.. I dunno what i am gonna do it is costing me 100$ a week to get to work and back when not even a week ago when my car was running it was 30$ so I am losing it here and dunno what to do.
