ok i'm reclaiming my thread, within 200miles of the failure it seemed i had dodged the bullet. That was until the intake valve timing stopped working. turns out there is a little screen that is in the supply line to the cam sprocket and it was plugged solid. they cleaned it out and replaced the sprockets and within 50 miles of the dealership the car started making a horrible banging noise like a loud rumble. I suspected a transmission problem but when i went in to replace the aftermarket flywheel for stock i found some thing even better. there is over an 1/8 of an inch of crankshaft end play on my motor the thrust bearing must be almost completely gone.
