Found out the problem with my oil pressure problem I found it out to be that GM left a 16mm plug out of the 6.0 block. When the machine shop put the shortblock togther again they found it out. They said they overlooked the plug. So i get the shortblock back thurs and have the heads back on it and running friday. Hopefully next week i can get the tranny and the converter and computer sent off and retuned, and make it to the Thunder Shootout. If all goes well. <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />

Are they going to cover the cost on their nickle?

So I just got to put all the head studs back, put the heads on and put it in the car.
