I don't think the warranty applies if you swap heads, cam and intake then dyno flog it.. lol -- sorta hard to blame GM.

We had TONS of oil pressure on the engine dyno. Then again all it takes is one pull where it drops. Engines blow up, it's in there nature. The whole process of an engine working is extremely violent if you think about it, it's nearly amazing that they work as well as they do.

Should have the engine back together today and back in the car tomorrow. In a month it will just be a "funny story" that I can tell when I'm out cruising around the Camaro.
