Lifter collapsed, engine is gone
Just got the call. Lifter collapsed and got stuck in the bore hole (my ignorance is showing, I have no idea what that is). Several valves are bent, pistons are nicked, timing chain is shot, cam is suspect AND the block is gone
So, looks like a new short block for my C6.

Wow, that sticks. Thats simular to what happen to mine, but not as bad as yours (no head danmage). I wonder why lifters are failing prematurely? Which short block are you going to install? 402???
