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

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

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?
