          Did you take the MAF off of your car? Has nothing to do with your problems metioned just wondering.

          1998 White Camaro 3800, A4, MagnaFlow Cat-Back, Zexel & 3.42's, Jet Chip Stage 2, Whisper Lid, and Ram Air.

                  when it "overheated" or when I fired it up...


                  when it overheated, was just above 210, no higher, but even then its going to be hot to the touch.


                  as for when I fired it up... it was cool to the touch... car was on for less then 1 minute.

                      You got the car hot or ran it lean, etc and it seems like you have a severly blown headgasket or cracked head.

                      The knocking could be from water in the cylinders (bending a rod), or a bad bearing, etc, etc, etc.

                        Pretty much my thoughts...

                        no wondering if I sell the car as a roller, fix it, or part it out...



                        as for now, definitely driving the Mustang Selling anything car related I can to round up cash...


                        Even considering ditching both the cars and getting something new.
