Which GM parts are weakest? 1. Oil pump
2. Rockers
3. push rods
4. behive springs
5. lifters
6. pistons/rings?
Anything else of poor design or have they fixed most of these in the newer engines?

Dont forget the WORST GM designed part in its history!! The Awesome 10 bolt
but i agree with the above statement and would add you will spin a bearing if you rev these things to 7000+... they jsut werent designed for that.
