Yes, this is the same motor that ran 11's. Never been rebuilt. Truck still has less than 36k on it, so technically, it's under factory warranty.

That sucks man. The more I think about it, I may just go ahead with a LSx intake on mine.

Ouch....sorry dude, this REALLY sucks. If I can be of any help just let me know and I'll do all I can.

I DO have a set of cast-iron 6.0 heads just sitting around of you want 'em....there's NO chance those things will melt the way aluminum does!!!

So you left out something very important. What are your plans?

I dunno yet ... I've got 2 blocks. An ls1 block and a 6.0 punched out 30 thou.

I dunno what I'm gonna do right now. Funds are to tight to finish the 408 unless some helluva deal comes my way.

I'm guessing a broken ring land just like #7 maybe smaller. This piece didn't hang around long enough to hammer things up.... just bent the plug.
