When I break something, I break it good!
Pulled the the heads off yesterday to see what the problem was. Much to my supprise, the head gasket looked great. But look at what I did find in the #6 cylinder: 
I did not see any signs of detonation in any of the other 7 cylinders so I am guessing the rod just couldn't take it any more, broke then slung the piston into the wall punching a hole in it. It did it's duty with 120K hard miles though so I am not complaining.

That's what too much "NNNNAAAAAWWWWZZZZZ" will do for you. What tranny are you going to put behind the new engine. Please don't tell me a stock 4l60e. That makes my stomach turn thinking about those POS trannies.
