houston, we have a problem...

Well, well well. The truck wasn't getting spark so we thought that it was something in the distributor, well sence I hate the ESC distributor I changed it out with a normal HEI and the truck still wasn't getting spark. Very very odd. Well after i took the cap off again after trying to get it to run I noticed that the rotor was in the exact same place. I got dad to look at the rotor while I turned the engine over and guess what? The rotor wasn't moving. Looks like I either broke the timing chain, or the camshaft, probally the timing chain or so I hope. Now I get to pull the timing cover off, and probally the heads because I have a feeling that the valve's hit the pistons. In wich case it looks like I'm parking Red for a long long time. Looks like it backs to getting a ride to school with Mom and buming rides back home. Joy.
