    no, I am not 100% sure that that's the problem. Also, it is cheaper to put in an M20.

              Brad:

              As we told you a few months back, Sports Ilustrated swimsuit model Catrinel Menghia is the hot, anthropomorphic incarnation of the Fiat 500 Abarth in the now-famous ad every auto enthusiast in the United States has fallen in love with. Although she's actually Romanian instead of Italian, she certainly does a pretty spectacular job playing one on TV.

                Don't be so sure, guys. a new HG set for an M42 is ~$200, and add any head machining costs, and I bought Clark's car for $150, and after swapping over the entire drivetrain I know I can scrap the remainder for at least that.

                Therefore, swapping in an M20 is cheaper.

                  What a waste of a 318is. Sucks the engine blew up, what do you think it needs.

                      Why is it a waste of a 318is? It is (will be) doing more badass things than most 318is's do...

                      And I am not sure what the ol' M42 needs, I may rip it apart again and take a closer look once it's out. Could be a warped head, could be a crack that I didn't see, could be anything, all i know is it burns coolant and mixes coolant and oil BAD.

                              The thing is that I didn't want to quit but it was getting to bad, the Gm kept screwing me over on my shifts and I was the one looking bad at the end so screw that.
