    Yeah, stock internals. The car was sprayed before I got, then I sprayed it with about 3 15lb bottles. The car has 88k. The thing has not been pampered by the last owner or me. I wasn't spraying. The bottle wasnt in the car. I think nitrous is a blast, but I'm not using it anymore. Thats the reason I went through 3 automatics, 3 flexplates, 2 rearends and now this is more aftermath from it. My nitrous has been sold.

        well even if the chain did break/stretch and pop off the top sprocket is connected to the camshaft and that should spin freely at all times. I'm guessing your going to need much more work done that your expecting

              thinking about this some more maybe you bent a pushrod or broke a spring? Have they pulled the valvetrain yet?

                No, its still together, He told me it was going to cost $3000 to do the heads, cam and crap so im gonna roll the dice and just have the chain replaced, and hope its ok. Right now I don't have $3000 to put into it. The car might end up in the for sale section soon, or just part it out. I bet I get more doing that. This whole thing sucks.
