yea... but I sold the wheels and the suspension is back to stock... so I still have quite a few things in there.
I'll have it checked out by a professional because my dad and I seriously don't believe it's the engine. We'll see, I'll keep you guys posted.

Did it go "CLANK" before it quit? Was there an oil puddle under it afterwards? As asked previously, does it crank? If it didn't clank when it died, then maybe there's hope. Keep us posted......

Ok, it doesn't crank over, there was no oil puddle after it stalled. I think it's some problem with ignition since I installed a tach... cause the + battery cable is all burned up, and it is smoking when I try to start the car up. So it's not the engine... I suppose...

I towed the car to a car shop where I always go, they told me that the engine had siezed. And no it didn't go "Clank" before it quit, infact I kept rolling. There was also no oil puddle. I guess the car is dead then...

Yep, it sounds like it. sorry. Maybe they can find a replacement engine for you and put it in cheaper than you could find a car to replace it....just a thought....
