Default Yay! I blew my engine!!!:(

So last night I was messing with my z28 cuz it's been acting strange so I took out to a country road and made a pass and in 3rd gear at about 5800 it just fell on it's face so I stopped and heard bad things and instantly knowing it was done went home..

My brother in law owns a shop and had an engine and I bought it and I am installing tomorrow..

Old set up 233/239 cam and ls6 made 425 on a mustang..
New set up forged 346 ms4 cam and PRC 2.5's... So what do you guys think? About this set up?

To make it a little cheaper I gave the cam and supporting mode as a part trade but the new engine has 900 miles on it I new the guy that had it and someone backed up into his t/a and it's now totalled so my brother in law bought the car and parted it out so it's good that I know the history on the engine
