That's right. I'll admit it.
I've had straight H2O in the cooling system while working out cooling issues. Car's been in a shop where it's normally kept warm enough to not be a problem. We'll, the temp dropped and it wasn't warm enough and the block froze. Core plug above the starter popped out. Had my fingers crossed that I would get real lucky. Now that everything has thawed and drained I found a 2" crack on the passenger side between the rear two core plugs. Didn't even have 1000 miles on it.
Just shoot me.... :banghead:
So, now I've got to decide whether to rebuild, or go a different direction: Son would like to see a blower sticking out of the hood, or a late model hemi.... it'd be nice if I had any money.
Sigh.
