Most of the time when an engine has hydrolocked the connecting rod bends. It is still a good idea to check the block though.

Just my 2 cents, get an ls2 402 from Futral. You diffently need a cam bigger than a 224.

I'd definetly go bigger on cam....at least mid 230's on duration and upper .500's to lower .600's on lift.
