My new lt1!!!!
Yeah so I bought this Rx7 Lt1 swap on ebay and it overheated every 150 or so miles on the way home. Once i got it home I tore the bitch apart and here is what i found!
First there is the broken rocker arm stud

Then after the intake is off, the bent pushrod

But it gets better! ******* block is cracked from steam pipe to bolt hole.

Incase you didnt see it.

Here is the stud still in the head

Soooo looks like im gonna be pulling this pos out of there and checking the internals, except Ive never done this and have no experience. Any advise?

That sucks that you have to put in work on something you just bought. But as least you know What been done tot he motor and that you have done the work. Good looking project !
