    Unhappy :(

    Well its over. My fox is gonna need a new motor. At this point I really don't know what happened. I was driving, car seemed like it was losing some juice. Stop by a friends house(lucas) and turn it off. Slow crank.....so I leave and get maybe a mile and a half down the road and here some mild knocking. So I get over in the right lane, turn right, then turn into an office park. As soon as I get in the office park it dies. Motor siezied. Right now I'm sitting waiting for my ride. I tried popping the clutch and the car just came to a halt! So ummm yea, fox damnation. I just don't get it, a matter of hours ago it was running like a queen. Like a friggin kitten. So ummm yea houston we have a problem. Its really sad i just got the car running friggin PERFECTLY!!!!!! sunday, its wednesday and its down again! I'm almost holding back tears right now

    some pics i took b4 she committed suidide........

    That sucks man! Can you swap a VR6 into one of those? Perhaps a 5v 1.8 Turbo?

    vr6 too custom, 1.8 is possible. But im going to get an ABA block this weekend. So more power, higher compression, and 2.0
