The LLT is very durable, I've thrown 17 PSI of boost with 31 degrees of ignition timing through it and it is still good.

From your first picture, that looks like it had a crack on the valve cover or oil cap extender.

They also weren't carrying all the weight that modern versions carry.

700lbs lighter than my car. Airbags, side impact beams, power seats, infotainment system, etc... all add weight.

I respect your enthusiasm for your Camaro with a V6. I think you forget that many of us have twice the horsepower of a V6 because of the mods we've done. So when you boast about how fast your V6 is it doesn't even register on us we we just take it as words that really don't mean anything. Again I don't mean to be disrespectful but when you're talking about how fast your V6 is just remember that there are other cars out there and other owners who just don't care about your claims
