    Nothing like installing your engine only to have to pull it again the next day...

    Anybody know where i could get a piston? Guess I'll try the dealer tomorrow.

    I think I made a boo boo.

    What do you mean by overlaps? During a momentary lack of oil, all it does is grab onto the crankshaft and spin within the rod/main bearing housing. The grabbing onto the crankshaft messes up the crankshaft and sheers off the metal from the inside of the bearing. The spinning sheers off metal...

    My first post here... sorry it's not a pleasant one. I got a 99gt off a dealer(north texas nissan) through ebay. This was may 28th. It was advertised as a clear title. So, I paid and picked it up they said they were going to process it and the title will be there in a couple days. 6 weeks later...
