Man, that bitch sounds wasted. If somebody wants that ugly RS body kit and is willing to pay good money, hurry up and take it off before he changes his mind.

90 pecent sure even though the sound quality isnt the best that the noise is a spun bearing.. And the metal shavings in the oil almost confirms it..

Couldve even ripped up the cam I guess.. Never really know for sure till you break it down. : /

The car looks pretty ragged out but for $500 you did really well.

Motor is definitely gone though. 6.0!

yeah it is kinda fucked but for $500 there really was no point in even thinking about it..hell rollers go for $1500 easy...
anyways i got a quote of $330 to freshen up the bottom end with new bearings...
ill more than likely add a 228r cam or something mild that i can use the 5.3 heads i have already spare

the car has shitty paint but its cool cus ill prep it myself and im going for the semi-gloss look...and ill also throw some 5% tint all around so you cant see how shitty it is inside lol
