heys guys...well i got a new car since my tranny blew out on other and i needed a ride to school so i put the ol 240 on the side as a sideproject....havent got it goin cuz i still gotta get my current car up to basic maintenance..brakes/tires changed exc. well when my tranny went out it ran the engine really hard until it over heated b4 i could get over off the highway.....so i drained the oil to look for metal bits u know to see if the engine was heavily damaged...and well it got cold as fuck and i have been busy and its been chillin without oil for about a month. how bad is it to let an engine sit without oil in it?

i havent had time to throw a new tranny in it


probly a n00b question but had to be asked

thanks!
