well, that just makes me want to go talk nice to my car and read it bedtime stories to make it feel better toward me so this dosen't happen.
On a more serious note, what you gonna do? I would say (if you have the money) get the RB super light rotating assembally. only 8.5 lbs or so. Also completely balanced. Too bad it's like $2500. Guess I can't say "this tread is useless without pics," though

Man I'd cry if I saw the inside of my engine looking like that. ;( Poor 13B.
You were expecting it though, right? I mean... running 8lb on a cracked seal? o.O

Just curious, but how long could you go without the OMP functioning before you caused any damage? like 10 minutes of street driving, or a week?

So how long you can drive on it like that is really just determined by what condition they're in to start... and how much you don't mind taking a couple thousand miles of life out of the engine.

Even after I get the stock OMP system fixed up, I'm planning on running 4oz. of premix just for safety, and for a little extra smoothness.

Are you gonna reuse that housing as well? It kinda looks gouged a bit too much to hold good compression.

Premix should not clog injectors. Get TCW-3 Rated Premix.
You _can_ drive for months, without a functioning OMP, without doing much damage. I speak from experience.
I just would NOT reccomend it.
