Well today wasn't very good news. Was performing a compression check on the LS7 and noticed a particular cylinder was very low. Checked it again just to make sure it wasn't a bad seal or equipment, and built up enough pressure to pop out the little plastic plugs.
Water shot everywhere. Engine was completely flooded. This was very, very disappointing because we ran a CarFax report on the car the engine was pulled from and the car was totaled, but was no where near water. The seller swears up and down he didn't know the engine was flooded. Right now my client wants to return the used LS7 and just go with a new LSX 454 instead. Now we need to work with eBay and the seller to get a refund.
