hydrolocked 5.3
yea i was going pretty fast and i seen a big puddle in the road i slowed down a little but after that my exhaust started crackling and back firing, then it died. i started it and white smoke was coming out. and it died. i dont thnk its completely locked but it didnt sound good.. maybe i messed up a piston or 2? what do u guys think?

I find it really hard to believe that a puddle would have blown up the motor, how big was that sunmabitch?? if it cranks over, do that a few times, then clean the plugs off, stickem back in.. If it sounds, smells ok then roll with it..

If not sell me your LT's hehe 
This happened to me a few times in my old truck at the car wash, I'd keep it on while getting washed (not a good thing to do). It would surge and die, a few attempts of switching it on and getting all the water out and it was good to go...
Is ur intake that low????
