Well so far it's been about 2 months and the car 99 SVT is still at the STEALERSHIP getting dirty waiting for them to deal with our lawyer. They're trying to charge me 1200 bucks for removing the heads of the engine. Not even pulling the engine from the car. We sent our mechanic and installer of the Diablo chip to look at the engine and he feels the engine looks normal for 30000 miles on it, including the pistons. He also feels it is a bearing problem making the noise and not me "frying all 6 pistons" because of lean running condition. So there we are. If the engine is toast I might go for the 3.0L swap through SHOSHOP. So there you have it. Will let all know whats up with the car when I get it back.
