Ive been known to do things like this....

The truck hasn't lost any power, not making noise, and oil pressure is still good. Might slap another gear (the pinion seal happens to be leaking it's *** off too) maybe find a cheap converter to throw in it....

I personally know the 4.3 will handle a 250 shot if tuned properly.

I'm chasing rabbits now LOL...

No sir but the Dexcool degrading the oil will eat up the bearings, giving you that wonderful copper that you found. Glad that I changed the intake gaskets on my Blazer before it got to that point...

It's always bad news when your oil looks like Yoo-Hoo
