its a bone stock 07 4.8 no head swap or anything thing like 702s but i dont really remember. cant really do a leak down check bc the rad cap isnt right for the ones i have found :/ idk just ran it ab 200mil and everything looks good. maybe it was just something due to all the rain we had a last week but idk.

Does not sound like it could have happened from rain or pressure washer to me.

Thats pretty strange and lucky.

Ive seen condensation build up in engines after a lot of short trips. When the engine dosnt get up to temperture and the oil dosnt get hot enough to evaporate the water inside. Usually dosent happen around here lol but is common where its more humid. What you said came out seems high though.

Id put that catch can back on though.
