When my tensioner blew up my belt would jump around and the sound would go away and come back. It's easy enough to check and cross it off the list.

I've been kicking around the idea of buying a new Mitsubishi shortblock while I still had the chance. Unfortunately, it looks like I missed that window. According to STM the shortblocks are no longer available as of last month: https://stmtuned.com/products/oem-mi...3-short-blocks

...but still wanted a back up, in case something went really, really wrong.
FWIW, it took a really long time to source my second one (first one showed up rolling around the inside of the truck so had to be sent back due to being damaged and contaminated... such a waste)... so I was under the impression the supply dried up long ago. I would have tried to get another, had I known there were any avail as recent as a month ago.

I really like the reliability of the stock block, stock turbo setup. In theory an aftermarket built block should be even more robust if built properly, but there's something to be said for OEM reliability. I get nervous when I see other people's build threads that used all the right parts but still ended up with mysterious motor issues.
Track weekends are my vacations. The last thing I want is for the car to be out of commission for several months right in the middle of the season. That's half the reason I've stuck with OEM block, 200TW tires, and factory boost levels. But there's no escaping the fact that this is a 13 year old car with almost 100K miles now.
