The car has over 100,000 miles on it, the LS3 has 80,000 since the last rebuild. There hasn't been a noticable decrease in power, but it's consuming ~ 1qt of oil per track day. It's an opportunity for a refresh! Basically, I would like to have more power to use in the straights.
So, I lucked out and found a wrecked '15 Z28 (#65) with less than 1000 miles on it and purchased the engine and transmission. Sold the trans to recoup some of the purchase price.
Tore the engine down, overall it was in great shape. It did have a bit of corrosion on a couple of the cylinder walls from sitting so long. Everything cleaned up with a hone of 0.005"
