its actually a 2.0l 16v in the gli. I was more worried about keeping oil in it rather than makin it go faster

[t3h JAM]

As the current owner should be. Just drive the thing. You don't even know what you have yet, therefore I don't think you will fully appreciate mods anyhow. And the last thing you should throw cams in is a motor where you should be focusing on keeping oil in it. Don't kill another car!

where douse it piss oil from, we are going to rebuild the motor in the spring most likely, as long as its not from the block then its all good, just replace head gasket, oil pan seal....ETC, any other problems i should have to worry about? and did you say motor is a 2.0 l 16 valve?, who swapped the motor and how many miles douse the motor have on it, cause if its a lot we might just say screw it and go for a vr swap

[no_game]

Its the stock motor

[jettatrek01]

so wouldn't that make it a 1.8 l 16 v?

[Dos Jotas]

87-89 gli 16v = 1.8
90-92 gli 16v = 2.0

I'm pretty sure n3d means the rings are cooked and its burning oil
