Honestly if your car is running then I dont think it would be a fuse.

And replacing piston rings is not a super simple task if you have never done it before. It requires a full motor teardown.

 

I had my rings go bad recently. I found it easier to just get a new motor.

 

ok well i have torn a motor apart and replaced rings and pistons before but not in a LNF, and i could replace the motor but i dont think i have the money right now to do that. i would need short block and head right?

 

I didn't have the money either. Luckily I have good credit.

 

yeah thats a good point i have a decent credit as well, you just get a loan to replace the motor. how much was it for your motor.

 

not really. you just need some forged pistons and rings. Your head should still be good

 

$3200 for crate LDK for ZZP, $1700 for the install. I put it on a new credit card with no interest for 15 months.

 

well that doesnt seem to terrible. is that crate LDK include the turbo and all or what was included in your crate? i work at a dealer ship so i have resources for swaping.

 

Yep. Crate LDK includes all that except Transmission and some coolant lines
