I just had a 1994 V6 coupe fall into my lap for $500.
low and behold, i find out after i paid for it that its got a $10K crate motor under the hood
. so im happy about that part anyhow.

So started it up and it sounds really healthy. one problem now is that the last time i hit the key it let out a nice grind noise, which would be the starter not mating with the flywheel and boom theres a split acrossed the whole top of the bell housing now SMH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
looks like ill be all over this forum again shortly.

what to do now?
stick swap? definitely tranny crossmember bushings lol which way to go from here.
ideas?
