Default I think I blew an oil line and damaged the engine

There's no oil in the pan, engine making some wierd noises and pressure is extremely low. Was running about 6 psi and think I blew the engine. Any idea if these engines are any good? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/New-L...20398911QQrdZ1

Never heard of that company, I personally would buy from a sponsor as their stuff is trusted. I'm not a fan of ebay either.

I would figure out what's wrong with your engine before just buying a new one. If there is no oil in the oil pan it should be pretty easy to find out where it came out. There aren't any external oil lines that can blow unless you added an oil cooler. The engine is probably no good if you ran it for a while with no oil.

I'm also guessing you have a supercharger/turbo.

Yeah I have a turbo so I have oil lines running back to the oil pan, found out its those that caused the problem. Can any sponsors compare with that pricing?
