My 2007 Silverado Build...again
#645
LOL yeah. When I was putting this motor together, I had trouble getting an old piston ring out of one of the pistons. So I used a piston from another, newer engine. This is the piston that suffered the failure. All the others are just fine. To add to that, my girlfriend looked at that piston and compared to the others, she said "that one looks sketchy..." Maybe I'll let her inspect the parts for the new motor just to be sure LOL

1.) factory 5.3 (failed 918spring, dropped valve, broke piston, destroyed block)
2.) Iron LS1 (turbo'd, sucked meth tank dry on a pull, torched piston)
3.) junkyard 5.3 (removed for 6.0)
4.) 6.0 (fresh rebuild, spun cam bearing within 5,000 miles)
5.) 383 LSx (sold to buy turbo stuff)
6.) junkyard 5.3 (lean was too mean)
7.) TBA
The list of cams I've used would be even lengthier
