    it's a LS motor. im not sure how bad it is. but how can i tell? well, i just know that the car overheats like crazy. my cousin told me that if i was going to pressure my head, than possibly, my block is warped to. so is it best to change out the motor and do a B20 or would i save more money jus fixing up my LS motor.

    Damn you overheated it enough to warp the block?? x2... check with a straight edge and a feeler gauge across the block.
