Sux to be you. :ugh2: I hope for your sake it is neither. Think of it this way, you now have a chance to build it much bigger. Mine was stock when the crank broke. I probably would have not done what I did if it didn’t happen. Good luck with it. ---

maybe it was spinning a bearing like my v6 camaro is doing. then it finally went. my v6 camaro has low oil pressure so i just put thicker oil in and still going. ---

yes justin ran 15w50 and had those issues. something with certain oil pumps the PSI drops, he read 15psi at idle where normal LS1s run 38 to 42psi warm anyone that heard his car knew something was noisey… liek slow said bearing probably was on its way out and finally let go sorry it wasnt the tune if the motor was knocking long before i touched it. and if it was even close to my tuen then my truck would of went boom, talins car would of went boom, lauras car would of went boom…but last i checked both her car and talin’s car been running great for stock motor cars. 12.6 and 12.7 out of stock motors with bolt ons and a tune are good numbers and both cars have great oil psi along with the 6.0 i had…all above 40 psi at idle now Mac’s car with the same oil pump as justin also reads low ---

I just think it’s funny that Quik says that his “tune” didn’t blow up any other motors. Because we all know that every motor is exactly the same and reacts the same to every mod in the same way. I could be a bunch of things that added up to it. But like someone said, got to pay to play. and if you know your oil pressure is bad, why would you continue to drive it. There are a few things that can be left alone on a motor and they will still work, bad oil pressure isn’t one of them. Good luck on getting a motor and running again, it sucks to be without it. ---
