Bought a shell for $500, got a motorset for $400. After having to replace the head (all the intake valves were stuck open against the head ) I got an LSD and took it out for the first time. Did a few drift donuts and bam rod knock (Just did an oil change so oil wasn't low) Oh and when I went to register the 240, it had not been on non-op...$385 in backfees FML
