NEED HELP FAST
I bought a 95 gsr a week ago with a 2.0 liter block/type r head and trans. The car made 241 whp and was tuned by jeff evans. It just blew up and I am unsure what exactly went wrong. Does anyone know of any reputable shops in western pa that i can bring this to?

Re: NEED HELP FAST
To the OP - what do you mean by "seized"? The starter won't turn it over or you can't move it at all when you put a wrench on the crank pulley?
Also, what were you doing when it happened?
Have you pulled the oil pan or the valve cover? If so, what did you see?

Re: NEED HELP FAST
Haven't pulled anything yet, car is still sitting in a parking lot I'm trying to figure out where I am going to have it towed. I was driving the car home doing about 30-35 mph, I can't go much faster in the car yet because it has azenis on it and its the winter so all they would do is spin. The car shut down once when i pushed the clutch in while going down a hill, i turned the key and started it again and after maybe thirty seconds it sounded as if i had a really bad valve tap. Then the motor mad cut out again and the starter will not turn it back over. I can't get a wrench to the crank without putting the car on a lift. I'm trying to figure out where to take it so i only have to pay for one tow.
-NOTE: I am waiting on a lug key to put snow tires on, please no comments about that. I just need to know the proper way to diagnose my car and a place I can feel safe taking it too.

How about: http://www.innovative-motorworks.com/
I would take it to these guys in a heart beat, met derrek before at a car show he's a really nice guy. I'm in western PA though and i can't afford to tow this bastard that far.

For a basic diagnosis, any decent Honda/Acura shop should be fine. If you have to go through the motor, then you can find a better shop.
