    Sorry to hear this, but that sounds right to me.. this is exactly what happened when I bent a rod in my 2TR.

    I’d hate to see you sell the truck. Since the heads are already off, why not yank the short block out and take it to a machine shop for a refresh? Rods and pistons, and you’d have a setup ready for copious amounts of boost:D

    I just don't have time to mess with it anymore... I have a company truck so I have no motivation to finish working on it, but ironically had I not had the company truck, it wouldn't need fixing, because it wouldn't have sat for a year and the IC wouldn't have filled up...
