Sooooooooo, scanner said misfire detected on cyl 7 and we heard a steady ticking noise. I took #7 plug out and freaked out. There waasn't any gap. Turned out the porcelain broke. Of course that's probably not good. I went ahead and took out plug #5 and #3 to compare. You can't see it here, but I measured the overall length of the plugs and #7 is approx 0.01 inch shorter than the other two. The gap of #7 is about 0.048" and #3 is about 0.060. That's not good either. The most bothersome thing, however is the silvery discoloration on #7. Then I turned the motor over by hand and heard something hit something else on each revolution I was going to ask for possibilities/suggestions. But I think it's pretty evident what happened. So off to the dealer and see if it's covered

Hey I have a $20 gas card you can have so you can race at fest. It takes a lot of gas to make a 1/4 mile pass.

I'll have closed on this house by fest... darn closing was pushed back a week and so now I close Aug 2 ("supposedly) and then come up to fest, then home early Sunday to start moving stuff over. I'll only be broke for another couple days. So I'll have my extra $20 for fest and I'll smoke yo ass on the track b/c my tires are better.

Sorry I wasn't of much help, I just don't know anything about LS3's. The most I could've done was frown at the engine and throw out unhelpful comments like "Maybe it's the manifold". Hope it's nothing major and that it's covered under warranty.
