The cam phasers aren’t to blame, the same would happen to a ls1. You over revved the heavy valve train of large valved pushrod engine. The large valves that provide the low end grunt we love. The philosophy from the ls7 brought c5r lots of success and reduced maintenance intervals with broad power curve applies to this engine. Doesnt need to rev. Watch pobst hot lap, doesn’t rev too much. It happens, that’s racing, ppl lose motors, it sucks. Hopefully you’re interested in camming it and/or 408ci and making it run more how you like it.
If you haven’t had the pleasure of a cammed ls/lt its pretty amazing

Yeah shit happens. Need to get the braking done first.
My excuse...LOL....forst session of the new year...
I am sucking it up, I did even bother calling the dealership to warranty it...
New motor will be in this weekend. I do all work myself and there is a lot to these cars....E-steering etc.....lots of shit in the way.
New motor is stock cubes and just forged pistons and rods. Comp cam phaser limiter with total delete. New heads, I even trashed my intake manifold and air filter! In the trash can it went. The broken shit was packed in there. Guess it would with no intake valve in the head,
back flowed. Small cam spring retainers ....normal shit
OH AND BTW I MEASURED PISTON THE VALVE CLEARANCE 95 THOUSANDS. That should be plenty for that missed shift...
