Yep, that sure sounds like you killed the motor. Either have your mechanic rebuild that 7 bolt or what I would do is find a cheap 6 bolt to swap in there. Either way, good luck with it and let us know how it goes. |

I agree that you're not going to figure it out by asking questions instead of opening it up and finding out what is actually damaged. |

You called the shop earlier today and spoke to me. Did you every check timing? That will tell you if it's valves making love or not. If that checks out fine then it's dead bearings. Sounds like that's the case to me. |

Just hope that it's nothing more than bent valves due to skipped timing. It's not that hard to check the timing. |

bent valves car might not even run if its bent bad enough. Check your timing first and foremost. If its good, drain oil and pan for gold. |
