Need some advice from you guys. My Aluminum M52 motor is back at the machine shop getting torn apart trying to figure out what went wrong with the initial build. My friend is selling a S52 long block with ~180k I think for fairly cheap ($1500). My car will accept this motor with no changes, but then I will have two motors. Flipside is that I should be driving my car a LOT earlier...

Yo what type of drill bit do you guys suggest I use for the stud? I used titanium and it did some damage but broke.

my new coils came in and they installed the camber plates on the rear and the shock mounts in the front... WHUT? I cant get it off either do I need an impact?

thanks chris, that's very helpful. i may take him to court then. i can't take such a large loss like this. my car is totalled and there's no way in hell 1900 will even come close to the amount to fix just the side of the car. i guess i'll be sending in a decline letter.

do it

... and also send the boys round to slap him up a bit

Havent tried to snap it off? Can even use a cross wrench wedge it on and jump on it.
