Id find a new tuner first before blowing a lot of money on another motor.

Same here. I'd Turbo a 4.8/5.3 cause if it did/when blow up you'd only take a $500 or so hit. Plus you can find another and be up and running over night lol

I know who your tuner is, hes good but something is up. Youre not pushing that much power to eat motors so quick. If hes taking care of you then thats all you can ask for. Not many would stand behind their work like that.

Id go with the 6.2 block personally.
