making a video won't prove anything, As I have access to three coworkers with ls1 camaros. I'm telling you guys it is a running car though.
With the exception of 1 broken lifter, and 3 fucked up cam lobes nothng happened. Actually on the cylinder with the broken lifter an intake valve bent ever so slightly, it still seats 100% on it's seat and passed our compression test with flying colors. I don't see how this car running isn't believable?
Either way though this car is now on the road and driving flawlessly!

This ship has sailed and seems to be headed back to port for a refill on failure.
Be sure and let us know when all the regrind metal makes its way into a vital part or passage and you "don't know wtf happened".

A bent valve can't seat properly... a compression test may compare reasonably good but a leakdown test will fail.
Nothing happened does not equal 1 lifter, 1 valve, 3 lobes...
How did you f.u. the 3 lobes...?

Lol wow guys!
The heads were pulled off, and the motor was out of the car, no idea how the bent valve was found/checked, as I wasn't at work.
Of course the oil was changed!!!!
Don't know about the future, but it's running right now!

Of course the pushrods were measured!
You seem to be hiding something. Were not sure, but its pretty easy to find out when you wait a month and start asking about being really down on power. But not for someone you know. Ya, just someone you heard about that works with someone you know. This thread will be remembered for years to come. I promise you. Its already been linked on facebook and a few other forums. Your lack of participation is just going to make it worse.
Get some of your LS1 co-workers in here. I want to see what they really know.
