I feel the pain. My bottom end just went to hell with only 8K on the odom and easy driving.

Don't know what happened, or if it was the shop's fault. They did all my work, heads, headers, cam, etc. The last thing was heads, about 300 miles ago. And all of a sudden, the dreaded noise, the low oil pressure and power loss.

Just ordered 4-bolt main short block to be delivered to mech tomorrow.

Sure hope it wasn't their fault, becuase it really makes you gun shy about having them do the rebuild too.

Mine is an Lt1. I would even forego raising hell if it WAS the mech's fault in consideration of them tell me the whole truth.

That's the part that really sucks, in my opinion, not knowing how it happened, so as to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Kinda like the space shuttle.
