Default I learn something new about LS engines all the time..

Life is an educational experience.. lol

Yesterday I learned that the bolt holes in the back of the crank, for the flywheel are NOT blind holes but go through to oil...

Not sure why they would do this unless it was just to make sure the holes wouldn't hydrolock.. but that seems unlikely.

Were ready to put Penny's LS engine back in, added oil and thought we had a massive leak from the rear seal.. tilted the engine to check and oil came out the crank holes...

Go figure
