hahaha, i wanted to, but gonna do it a little at a time. it wont take long for the rings to seat. Just keep in mind when urs is done, dont be completely easy on it when u break it in. do some 3/4 throttle pulls. Motor will run stronger, and last longer. been proven over and over!!!!

I have heard that before. Matter of fact my buddys dad came over last nite in his '10 camaro SS and was saying how he had been doing the same 3/4 pulls. So there must be something to it.

So is it a night and day difference?

Went an dropped the other block off today at the machine shop and picked up the ls1 in the meantime. He said he will prolly have to grind that crank a little. I dont want that.

Are stock LS1 cranks steel or cast? I need to do the hammer test.

Anyways, If i have buy a new crank I'm stroking this thing. Thats for sure.
