Yes...Block has busted crank...LOL put a 6/71 blower on it many years ago and was to much boost for stock crank, Put another forged short block in it with same 6/71 but kept original block and all original parts. Stock tranny couldn't hold up to the new Blown LS3 took a dump on second pass. Still have it though.

No big deal..i think the car is worth much more set up the way it is now than original. No one would give me 15 g's for it in original condition. I have turned down 45g's for it the way it stands now.

Everybody wants the new stuff. 700 hp vs 190 Hp gee wonder why. No carbs, starts and runs perfect. 700 Ft Lbs of torque right off idle and everything that came on the car originally works in some cases better than new.

Definitely not looking back. If anybody wants to restore a 1980 Z28 i have lots of parts...LOL
