Message New turbo CHRAs $800
Gasket kit $240
Rod and main bearings $150
Piston rings $180
Then I think $500 is a fair amount to budget any machine shop work (heads)

Then just gonna reuse the water pump and Tbelt since they are brand new, and hopefully I'll be golden

Is a new oil pump necessary? I noticed the current TT would sit at about 15 psi warmed up on idle on a hot day. I think it might be worth the insurance

Now here another thing. I wanna make sure this doesn't happen again. I think I just ran into some bad luck, but I wanna make sure nothing I do can cause another failure

What are the causes of rod knock? I understand it is generally oil starvation, but where can that problem come from? If I make good oil pressure is it safe to assume that everything is properly lubricated? Or perhaps is there a clogged oil passage somewhere that caused this in the first place
