Default Blew my motor sky high

Tonight i was driving down mid cities blvd, im my camaro, driving around 40 downshifted into 2nd (on motor) and next thing u know a big bang and grinding....look in my mirror to find a trail of oil and a huge cloud of smoke!!! So i grenaded my motor there was a hole the size of a good size plate in my oil pan and i was collecting pieces of my Rods, and chunks of piston all over the road, so im on the search for a big cui motor so if anyone knows whos selling one or a shop that does good work for cheap let me know! So now 1 less ls1 on the road but hopefully i make it faster! And donations accepted im about 2k short so lol let me know about all of it

Got a guy selling a new never run 454 SBC, but then again you would not be on the streets with this motor for sure. The motor has a twin that runs 5.50's
