OK i bought my mustang about 3 months ago....
Runs good but i always heard this noise i didnt think sounded normal. its not spark knock or anything i checked that stuff....
My dad told me not to worry blah Hi Po motors make more noises than you old 4 cyl car... I was like whatever.
Well sometime it would start tapping real bad and starts knocking hardcore. We found out its internal and not good.....
Well when i bought my car my plans were to build a motor for it and do gears and shift kit, stall etc. I bought a longblock from a 93 stang, i tore it down and now its sitting there. I could rebuild it but i am iffy about the hyper pistons and then the motor looks like it was ran w/o oil. there are wear marks on the rod bearings....
I've been taking car of my car so i decide to screw the motor and get gears, stall and shift kit. So recently i bought a whole new rear end, rebuilt and has pro5.0 390s and its a nice tight rearend.
I went racing yesterday, i ran a best of 16.7 I live in Ok so i dont think i am elevated...
Now i am pissed at my car, i hate it i regret getting the auto. I pretty much went for the first one i found....
As of right now i have
my mustang, runs good but has internal noise sometimes.
a disassembled longblock from a 93 5.0
a rebuild 8.8 rearend with 3.90s
and about 300$
what do you think i should do??
I was thinking sell my car, should get 3000$ or something, pay off my loan i have on it. about 800$
have about 2400-2500$ would be a little more that what i had when i bought my stang...
Maybe i could find a 5.0 5pd with a bad motor and rebuild it, so i know it wont F'ING knock on me and will run good. Then i could swap out rearends..
What would you do??
I dont want to spend money on my car if it knocks...
