i would say insurance fraud.....lol... i dont think you have anything to worry about as far as someone looking for you.. he sold his turbo kit, then kept the money and never shipped it out. is the motor blown? because he did have it built at automotion. you could prolly search this thread and find what all he did to it. i also remember him having issues with his intake manifold leaking(he may have got that fixed). but his tune was his only main issue. i say keep it and build it back

the motor IS blown. the oil when i drained it looked like milk. but i already knew that when i bought the car. ive built a few motors before and have pretty much every tool i need so ill probaly just find someone to install the sleeves and ill do everything else myself. before i drive all the way to louisville with the block i wanna make sure automotion can install aftermarket sleeves though. im up here right now visiting some family so i might go talk to them today. any idea who i should talk to.

Chris: LOL If you sent me a text its going to be hard to get here in Iraq. But the guy who built your motor and mine was Brian. He no longer works at Automotion. Ashley can get you his number.
