Pun intended? LOL

I'm officially a member of the blown up engine art, after the blown up clutch art. Hoping mine isn't too bad but don't know the full details yet.
Everything in the heads look okay except for a bent valve (so far), next will remove the heads to see if any major damage there (pistons). May be looking for a new motor too pretty soon.
We suspect the clutch went to full failure while I was doing 60mph. on the hwy. and engine overrevs may have cause the valve to bend.
Seems like something always breaking on these pretty cars.

Sorry to hear about that.....your last statement is why the internals of this LS3 are staying 100% stock.

I think the overrev I suffered when the output shaft busted may have been the beginning of the end for my engine as well.

Way to go Hugger! It looks great in there.

Please tell me the grenaded block will now become a coffee table somewhere....slap some glass on it and call it a "gentle reminder". That is quite the destruction there. Wow.
