I believe that was the case...! I wasn't there. (The tuner was giving me too much additude and pissed me off) It didn't have any vents or additional breathers/catch can.
The guys pulled the oil cap and wrapped it with a towel and pulled the tube off the driver side valve cover and that apparently worked for that part...

I'm going to pull the waterpump and inspect that, and try to flush the block. If there is not a obvious blockage. Then, I'll start with pulling the heads and getting them checked myself....

Mine did the same thing, pushed coolant out of the rad. kept checking the oil, no signs of coolant in it. Pulled the heads and saw where it was pushing under boost.

Before pulling the motor can you do another leak down test at BDC & TDC? If a cylinder walls cracked youll find it that way. But with the oil not being contaminated id doubt it. im asuming your running a cooler tstat and fan settings since you said the fans come on at 170. If not dont trust your stock gauge. Do you own a infared thermometer? Check the temps across the radiator core as well as both hoses and along the heads for major temp variations. Im willing to bet its some thing that's not that big of a issue. If its got a cracked block or bad headgasket a proper leak down test will find it.

He flushed the block earlier today, and didn't notice any type of blockage. Sadly, it seems we're at worst case scenario. I'll have him check back here, and update with more info that he has. Thanks everyone again for all the help, it's much appreciated.

I normally feel for a car guy when they have probs. But knowing how some of the parts were obtained for this build, let's just say this overcast day looks pretty bright to me.

Just so everyone knows, these three guys are best friends. 9sectruck sold me my blower kit, and he received the money in full when I picked the kit up in person. He asked me if I would trade him a few parts and I said sure, later we found out that our parts were not interchangeable, since I'm LS1 based and he has an LS2, and he said he wasn't interested in the parts anymore. I still mailed him the parts to maintain our deal, but he magically "didn't ever receive the parts" and feels I should do more. I have witnesses that I paid him in full the day I got the kit, and a witness that I in fact mailed his parts out.

In the short time I have been on this forum I have bought parts for my build from several people, as well as sold several parts. Never had any issues.

Lmao... You have proof? Post a pic of the receipt when you shipped the parts then. Oh ya that's right you didn't ship them your girlfriend did and you/she lost said receipt.


And I think it may be a little more than friends when the other board we are in starts a poll to perma ban you and within the first two hours it's 20-4 to boot you.

The parts we agreed upon about trading don't even add up to $500... And, every forum I am on has my build thread, where it clearly states I am LS1 based. I also told you numerous times before I bought the kit that I was LS1 based, and asked if it would work on my setup. YOU assured me that the kit would work perfectly, which wasn't the case. It's no ones fault except for our own for not making sure, I didn't complain about you being wrong and that the injectors were no good for me, because it was as much my fault as it was yours for not double checking. Lesson learned.

You were paid in full, and you know it.

Another vote for M2W being an uber douche, before and after the whole blower incident.

So since the parts you didn't get him didn't add up to $500 it's ok to not worry about it?

I already stated multiple times that I shipped the parts originally agreed upon to the address he provided me with.

As we've heard many times with no proof of shipment. You claim to have proof yet it's never been posted. Just like you also had a laundry list of reasons why it wasn't taken care of over 6 months ago.

But hey I'll go to the lottery commission and tell them I won the power ball, surely they just hand me the $$$ without the ticket right?

It doesn't matter to me anymore, karma came around quick.
