Def worth fixing back up. My guess is the stop leak stuff clogged up some tiny oil passages in the crank/rods and it spun a bearing. I've heard of that happening on more than one occasion and is why I will never use a stop leak product in an engine or transmission. A local mechanic would probably swap the engine for less than a grand in labor plus the donor engine costs which could be very cheap if you just went with a 30 day warranted junkyard engine. Or go all out and have one built.... If it were an H3T Alpha instead of an suv I'd be all over it myself.

Got it. Unfortunately, I just contracted a complete house renovation and it will take me 4-6weeks to complete. Interested if still available when I complete the reno.
