New engine installed, runs great, tech told me all of the main bearings were "wiped out" even wrote that in report, so as of now I have a nice new shiny engine in there, hopefully this one does not suffer the same fate. Also they replaced the tranny fluid, what a difference, so smooth no whinning...etc.

I just never saw it said that they did that. I do this every oil change in everything. It's pretty simple and can help save an engine.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think mine has stopped making the tick noise.

Although this morning when I went wot in 1st I heard what sounded to be like a terrible pinging.

Just a quick update, have had my new engine for 1600 miles (yes i drive it allot) since the change and its been excellent. A couple of g8, srt challengers and camaro ss's can attest. Very happy.
