Yeah well, Andrea Carothers (my engine builder) would probably be pissed if she found out that her master craftsmanship was all for not. After several spun bearings, the engine is toast. No conclusive word from my Chevy dealer, but looks like it had to be either a failed oil pump or oil pick up tube. Up to that point it was great though, didn't burn a drop of oil.

Hats off to GM and my Chevy dealer. Approved the engine replacement under warrantee and will have the car back in working order 3 weeks from the original engine dying. It turns out there's a lot of steps and labor involved doing an engine replacement.

Wondering if I should transfer my "Andrea" plaque to the new crate engine
