Well I did roll it and hydrolock it... Been driving it 1.5 years since the roll and 9 months since hydro lock. Just burns oil dies frequently main bearings going out. I'm gonna take it to the dealer soon to see if they can figure it out and maybe ill just throw some parts at it but I'm just leaning toward a new motor because I know motors just not this one so it would be nice to have a 3.6 in my garage I can work on and take apart.

If u hydro locked ur engine u should be in limp mod. Meaning u wouldn't be able to drive over 10mph. Sounds to me your bullshitting us. Get ur facts straight.
After hydro locking my engine it cost me 4500 to replace. No fun. Good luck.

Regardless of if being locked or not he's simply asking around for a 3.6 so he can do a heart transplant..
Edit: and yes I've been there before..4k out the door

This wasnt called for. Clearly not bullshitting someone if he is asking to buy an engine. Not like he trying to steal one from someone. And yes you can drive a motor after hydro locking. I've had a civic that I hydro locked from having a cold air intake and going through a bunch of water accidentally and after a while and changing fluids I could drive it. And yes It was taken straight to mechanic after the incident to verify everything. Now he might be a little mistaken on the hydro lock unless he rolled it in water but I don't think he is trying to bullshit anyone.

Hahahha I know how you feel I'm sitting here right now debating on an LS swap but too pricey at the moment but in the future I plan on it. I can get you a 4L60 trans that needs a rebuild for 100$ haha found it when i was thinking about my LS swap

Shit I might pick me up another 3.6 just to have for a replacement once the warranty expires and I get up around 80-100k......
