thats DAMN AWESOME!!!!

o thats pretty

It'll serve as a great paperweight still

Looks like we got a bit of H2o in a cylinder did we???????? lol

Hmmm...offset connecting rods? Must be a new thing. :haha:

What did that come out of?

yeah that 1 on the right looks fucked

congrats welcome to the club LOL

I did nothing of the sort but I'd guess that was the killer, this was a 25K mile 5.3 I was gonna save as a back up motor, not happening now. Good news is there are still 7 good rods, lol. Remarkably I can't find a lick of damage anywhere else on the engine, she must of just stopped cold.

wow lol

I saw that too. The one on the right def has something wrong!!! lol

so the bore on the block is even ok ???

That much oil deposit in 25k miles?!?!?! Damn those LS1's are worse then diesels!

must have never been changed and used vato zone oil

Yup, not so much as a scratch

I think it has more to do with having had water in it, everything else but the pistons is spotless.

I would just check it all out put new bearings in clean up the other seven replace the rods and slugs on the bad ones and run it

or i can just sell it for parts :)

true forgot you had a motor for it all ready

Unless I need the block to fix the T/A, either way I wouldn't use this one, although I did pilfer all the sensors, the rockers, lifters, coils and some more stuff off this one

hay nick whats a good price on a 6.0 block in iron and aluminum

$250 for Iron, and about $800+ for aluminum, assuming you can find either

whats the weight difference? is it even worth the extra $$$

almost 200 pounds

in just the block holy shit you better make some big power to make up for that HU. So how did that rod actually get like that

guessing it was a hydrolock. Yeah the Iron block weighs about 270#, aluminum is around 80#
