@bonecrrusherSS I know lol. That's why I said that. My other truck blew the engine under 10k I have a whipple for my ZR2 that I've been putting off but I think I'm just going to slap it on and pray to the motor Gods I eat a TRX or Raptor R before it blows up 😅
So appreciate you doing this. It is my plan to build a backup up motor for if/when the original fails. Love the truck, no faith in the factory power train. I have the time and money, but not the knowledge Thanks!
Just dropped something off to the machine shop - going to take some time to get it back but will come back wayyyy stronger then what I dropped off. I reveal what got dropped off next week!
At 135k I did 2K DOD, heads machined and rebuilt 250, C8 intake and TB 300. I ran a catch can and magnet on the oil filter from day 1 and have pictures to show the issue are; lifters, injectors trashed, 1 broken exhaust bolt. Cylinders still had cross hatch and pistons had minimal carbon. Lifters and blow by due to DOD are what does damage. BTR 35% fuel 638 lift cam is barely noticeable. I think the tsp block is overkill.
Now you have me rethinking my performance route 😂😂
I have pretty much no faith in the stock motor - I went over some options in the video and reveal what we are going with next week!

I still want a forged bottom end for the lt4 blower. You will see motor updates next week.
