I wish I had this kind of power in my burb. This would be my cruiser lol.

Holy carp! Yes. That. That is amazing. I was kinda toying with the idea of a 502, and that makes me want it. That would be

As an owner of a 3rd gen LS swapped F-body...do it. Best of both worlds, looks and power/reliability.

Mine puts 425hp to the wheels and looks like a bone stock '91 Z28...its fun.

01-02 ws6 is where its at. Would love to find a sunset orange one with t-tops and 6 speed.

My senior year of high school, I worked with a guy at a pizza joint who had a 02 WS-6. Gold, t-tops, 6 speed. Super low miles and freaking mint. Had a full stainless steel magnaflow exhaust with headers. That thing sounded so damn nice. It was also a freaking raw, unrefined brute. I swear, it would snap your head back a little just normal driving. But when you laid into it, it wanted to tear your head off.

I finally got around to installing my 340lph Quantum fuel pump last night. Install went very smoothly and I decided to pull the brass venturi pump barb out of the delphi pump and installed it in the new pump. It works very well, but it is sucking the bucket dry after WOT for around 7 seconds. I'm not sure if this is because of the venturi pump or what. I may drop the tank again and remove the barb and line for the venturi pump and see how it does.

Coming home from work and getting on the entrance ramp to the highway, the engine ran lean, something broke, it died and blew oil everywhere. No visible hole or crack that I can see. Going to run a compression test to find which bank 1 cylinder it is. Gotta do something about the fuel pump before I fix or replace the engine. But for now, I'll work on getting the other Suburban (Stratos) going. It needs a distributor cap and the timing set to run good, then an oil change, and itll be good to go for a while.

Man that's a shame. Sorry that happened

I'll find another block. Rather that happen than a transmission any day! I can work on an engine easily, but not a transmission lol.

Strange it let go without boost.

I know, I couldn't imagine the damage there would be if it was boosted. If it's a crack or hole, its behind the divers side dirty dingo engine bracket and I cant see it. I'm hoping and praying it isn't as bad as I think, but my gut feeling is that the block is ruined.

Went to get the battery last night to install in my other suburban since I havent bought another one yet. Before I pulled it, I unplugged the fuel pump relay and the coil pack harness to see if I could hear anything when it turned over. It didn't budge with the starter so I'm leaning toward a bent rod that almost went through the side of the block. Eventually I'll do a tear down and see what all it needs. I'm hoping to salvage my camshaft, crank, and pistons if I can. I'd like to rebuild another block with gen 4 rods and keep my old pistons and crank if possible. May even do flat top pistons with valve reliefs, we'll see.
