We took it to the track and I had a machining part plug up a oil passage. At least thats what we found. All the parts were clean and we were trying to figure out what happened. Ended up spinning 3 rod bearings due to being startved for oil. This is with a brand new ported LS6 oil pump. But I get the motor back today I, At least thats what I was told. Wasnt able to get it last week because they needed my ATI balancer due to the new crank needing to be keyed. So I dropped it off Saturday and they are working on it today. Then I still have to finish the 4l80 conversion which I should have all the parts by Friday. Hence why I am torn to go out or hammer on my car to break it in before MM this next month. Putting the motor together is nothing. Will take about 3 to 4 hrs installed in the car. The nick knacks is what kills me. LOL I still havent even included the cage install So I will be a busy **** for the next week. Then I just found out I have to work Sat and Sun 16th and the 17th So I am trying to get out of that so I can go to MM @ SAR.
