Default Re: I killed an LT4 (Hurricane_777)

poor LT4-

Yup, sounds just the same!! here's Randy's email, maybe he can help ya out!! grandsport267@msn.com
He was driving along then outta no where it was like someone beat the hell outta the motor w/ a ball bat. Warranty bought him a whole new engine!! :yesnod: And he bought the old one back for like core of $400 or something. Hope this helps, sorry about your car!!

Wasn't he the one who racing and oval track and doing like 160mph when it spun? I thought I remembered reading something about a GS owner who did this and got another motor on the warranty. I remember the problem as having something to do with the high speed + oval track and oil not getting out of the pan and through the motor. I could be completely wrong on this one though :crazy:
Dry Sump Lubrication would have helped correct this is Chevy would have just installed such a system
