i figured out what i'm dong... i'im getting the 6.0 from ibanez7 and throwing that together to get my car up and running... will cost me about $2000 or so all said and done... (just needs L92 heads and intake...)

then... i'm going to order a LSX bowtie block and bore and stroke to 500 cuin... swap over the L92 heads and intake to that (once it is done) and toss that puppy in there...

WTF - I thought for sure this was an April fool's joke - your engine luck sounds like the engine/transmission problems I had with my '72 Chevy pickup years ago........3 engines, 5 transmissions - and yes, I rodded the life out of that thing, had a lot of fun, and learned a lot!

Good luck with the 6.0 ltr swap out - sounds like a great deal to get you rolling again!

What is the difference between a rod and a pushrod?

And what the hell were you spinning it to?

ok

I'm going to call bull shit on this one
unless you have already torn the engine down there is not much of a way for the push rod to make it all the way out of the engine

happy April Fools day
