Heading down I-64 in KY at about 65 I hear a loud pop and then my ride got really rough.

Is that the one that you have to seperate the body form the frame to get the motor out?

Luckly no, it wasn't. It was the year just before you had to. But none the less, it was not my favorite motor job. The Quick Lube, part of the company, forgot to put oil in the mofo, so I had to fix Thier mistake.
