NEVER advise someone to commit insurance fraud, especially on a public message board. Besides, ********* that do that just **** all of us because more claims=more premium. Try not being selfish, being responsible, and fixing your own ****.
Ninetres, I hope you get something figured out soon. I've been there before and can understand just walking away for a bit.
My guess is you are right-handed?

It is hard to think about my camaro situation, so I have been keeping it on the back burner. I am REALLLLLY antsy to get it back up and running though, so I gotta do something. Also trying to grind out some money. Nothing inside the motor is cheap to fix

I think i would be giving TSP a call to see if they know what the cause could of been.
You put alot of money and trust in them to give you a product that would be reliable and trouble free,and you got neither one of those.It didn't even make it to your first oil change!IMOA! Hope they can help you work out your situation.

SOB Man, I had no freakin idea... Jay didn't tell me anything about your car, **** I didn't even know you had that motor built, for some reason, thought you were going with a 402-408! Let us know man, hopefully you get that thing on the road again. If you need anything, I'll be around, you know how to reach me!

How'd it run til it blew buddy?
I have had nothing but great experiences with TSP and I'm sure they will at least ADVISE me on SOMETHING they could do to help me out. I'm 99% sure it wasn't being overpowered at only 14psi, and it was tuned by Rick at Synergy who has 100s of LS1 FI tunes under his belt, and is considered one of the better LS1 FI tuners in the country IMO and others opinions. As far as I know, spinning the main bearings is supposed to be caused by poor machining on the block, not overboosting or a poor tune anyway.

I am by no means saying they wont take car of you. I have been in the engine game before. It just the nature of the beast. Shop builds engine. Customer races car. Soemthing breaks. Customer calls shop on engine. They built it. They can advise you on what may have caused it and offer you a solution to fixing the problem. I would if I was in their shoes. The Performance business is a fickel one. One bad dealing cost big time.
