^ hahaha naw well I think not. I ended up blowing my head gaskets cuz of soo much heat from when I had ran it before I guess it's real sensitive stuff. Right after putting on my radiator it was still getting really hot so the mechanic told me it must be the head gaskets FTL there goes 1k bucks FML

^^ Yeah tru tru noo the head gaskets are the cheap part 50 bucks (oem) each need two + replacing water pump also may send the cylinder block to the machine shop depending on the severity of the heat. That price is actually cheap compared to stealership that wanted 3k minimum it's really labor thats a PIA.. good thing my dads friend is a mechanic. Although he said it will be out for a week the tow truck picked it up today to get the repairs underway hopefully be done before Irvine meet time

Well to begin with it was a bad radiator then I changed the Thermostat cuz they said you should do both at the same time but since I had previously ran it really hot like twice before I guess that caused the head gaskets to leak fml
