LS1

You gonna take my "advice" and get a stroker? honestly I don't know that much about the LS1 engine and therefore cannot diagnose your problem. If in fact the bottom end is gone, perhaps a stroker kit is a wise choice, if you can rake out the dough $$$!!! You already have heads, cam, and headers....get the stroker and intake and you will have a monster

This is my thinking. Your car is fairly new, with only 20K miles right? Something you installed/modified could be causing this problem.... What was the most recent mod you did before the oil pressure dropped and you started having problems? Whatever that was, put the stock back on.....correctly.....and see what happens. Or you could take it to a dealer and have them try to diagnose the problem as they may have seen this issue come up before.

Good Luck
