I would be interested in seeing some pictures of what this "sodium silicate" does to a engine.
you can upload pictures to photobucket.com and then post them on here.

Thanks guys.
The swap 3vze is from an 1989 pickup with auto tranny, which is what mine has. I'm only swapping the motor because my truck only has 99,000 miles on it and ran fine before the "incident."
I'm thinking about using the swap motor as a long block and putting all the accessories and such from the original motor onto it.
Is it possible to replace the HG without machining the heads and block, or is that a stupid and lazy thing to do? I'd prefer not to bring anything to the machine shop in order to conserve my minimal funds.
I have photos, but they're on my computer, they aren't on a website, I have no link to them. How do I post them?
