If I went 30 under it MIGHT be ok.. 30.. :willy:

Still no idea what killed it. The heads and valvetrain are perfect, pistons look like new. :shrug:

You lost the crank already? What crank was it?

Stock crank..

In positive news I found a local crank from another LS2 (pull-out) for $500.. Could be worse I guess.

If it was easy everyone would do it.. lol

Ouch. Yeah, but at least the engine is not fried.

No problem on the coverage. See, it's easy to get in a magazine. :)

Yea, and after a mad scramble I found one from a local builder (one pulled from a crate engine) for $175...

That's not too bad. Should have the engine back together by mid-day Thursday. :)

Those look just fine.... For a motor run with no oil. Good god man!!! Is there any way to make sure the oil galley isn't blocked in any way to make sure that doesn't happen again?

Steve Chryssos 04-17-2007 07:24 PM
