i misshifted the night you were up there, two valves tagged pistons, broke a lifter, bent a pushrod. leak down test was terrible on the drivers side. ended up pulling the motor, cam bearings were wiped out, cam was wiped out, rod bearings were pretty worn, some glazing in the cylinder walls so we sent it out and had it re done. im still working on getting it back together, short block is done.

yeah the valve train damage is all from mechanical over rev on my part, my own dumb fault for racing on a bad clutch. the bearing damage id say is from age and lack of maintanence/abuse in its life time. ive only owned it a year and have basically redone the entire drivetrain. but yeah motor was tired for sure! i am sticking with stock internals but i did some little stuff to make it better, tri metal coated bearings, durabond coated cam bearings, arp rod bolts, c5r chain, powerbond balancer, ls7 lifters, manley pushrods, pac springs, ls6 oil pump. going to make sure my air intake is 100% sealed and filtering really good, possibly get a blackwing lid cause i dont like how the aftermarket slp fits.
