Well after getting rid of silly aftermarket pulley that was on my car, and putting on a OEM pulley, I suspect my crankshaft is damaged. Upon startup all I hear is this muffled thumping. I have decided to bite the bullet and get another 7m. I would go 2j, but not comfortable with having to pull all the dash off to get to the ECU and main harness to change that along with the motor. I'm not really comfortable with just changing the 7m either, never done one before. On the plus side, it's fairly likely that my current motor will get rebuilt to silly proportions. I would just do it to the new motor, but I need it driveable asap. This way I have time to build up my current motor and maybe learn a little in the process. Planning on goodies from JE,Titan MS, Eagle, and Crower, to give yall a few hints. I'll do pics when the process begins, and I'll be ordering the motor in about a week.
