I've never known anybody who had blown coolant seals before. The only way for that to happen is if you either have a screwed up cooling system, or you don't regularly change your coolant.[/quote]

well my first engine blew up, those two jspecs were just POS. the one in there now has PERFECT compression. i can push start it pop the clutch going 2mph and it starts every time..... just burns coolant like a SIV.... oh well. just my luck
