Penny lives... again!
 
Well that wasn't much fun...

Anyways, first motor had some sort of issue, most likely to do with oil travel that took out the cam, crank and all the bearings.

Replaced it all and tossed in a slightly bigger camshaft. Replaced the oil pump with a reworked unit and tripple checked everything. almost 60psi of oil pressure on startup. :woot:

Fired right up and actually seems to run pretty good. Goes in for dyno tuning next Thursday.

Also, we started pulling the engine Monday and had her rebuilt and fired up by Thursday. Not too shabby.

Here she is, with mufflers, running again for the first time. Should get a bit louder once the Magnaflows loosen up. Turn your speakers up.
