lol naw the kid said it spun a rod bearing and said the other motor has a warped head,outta the two motors i can put the bottom end off the "warped head" motor and use the head off the "spun rod bearing" motor. it wont crank right now and when i got it there was no oil, not even a little bit in there so what ever this kid did he sure didnt do nothin right
