well the insurance company looked at it today and theyre gonna pay for brand new parts so thats some good luck for me. and yes water did get into the oil somehow. i pulled out the dipstick and it was pretty watery and light brown. but anyhow my mechanic should order the parts on monday and hopefully be finished pretty quick so ill keep yall updated once again. and thanx for all this info its really helpful. oh yeah and the total came out to be about $5700 but its all good.

It takes a mere 45mL
500mL per cylinder, 1/11th that when at TDC = 45
100mL...I don't know where you came up with that arbitrary number.

I would think that is a lot harder to do than it sounds. I would say water is more likely to to disperse and evaporate from the heat before it even comes close to the cylinder.

if you want to argue with that statement, good luck trying to convince everyone you know more than he does about engines, much less the S2000.
