first thing we'll do next time we start it, it won't idle right now anyway.i don't know what i am going to do about my stereo, i won't be able to hear it for sure.

u could put 3" bullets in front of the mufflers and it should help cut the noise down and it wont restrict your exaust as bad

Its leaking so bad the engine is getting up to running temp almost immediately. What did you do after they told you that?

Order a new one from summit put your old one in the box and send it back. Tell them it was leaking. Easy FIX

So its not the water pump, the water pump is dripping slightly but its not running out. We found a small hole in my timing chain cover Its going to be a bitch to pull apart.

That sucks reminds me of my problem with my cam seal on the belt drive. Worst part is I didn't install that shit a machine shop did!
