    What to do!!!!!!!!!

    I have a built BP engine (see my vB gallery for specs) that just blew up on me with only 4k miles on the rebuild. The whole engine is not salvageable. I want to see some votes before I make my next move. So vote what you think I should do next, or just give me an idea.

                      BPT will be more reliable than the V6 any day.

                            Did you build the motor yourself?

                              if you go forged bp for high boost, you'll start going through trannies

                              i'd say a mildly built BP
