Default New to LS1 Tech

Hey everyone, new to all this posting. My name is Roger and I live in Lancaster CA I have a 98 Z-28. A several years ago my motor spun a rod bearing, about 1000 miles after I bought it, the local Chevy dealer repaired it under warranty. 2000 miles later it blew up. Took it back to the dealer and the warranty company came out inspected it, and they said it was over reved. Which is B/S because the fuel pump shuts down at 6200rpm. I tried to fight with them but was no good, I don't know that much about motors to state facts that it was over reved. I did not have enough money to hire a motor specialist to fight for me. I think the previous owner beat the crap out of it before they traded it in. Long story short I am getting ready to put back together, so I am going to be posting up some questions here in the future, I have been reading posts in this site for a while now and you guys
seem to be very knowledgeable and very helpful.
