As for CF, those guys are more authoritive about cordinating floor mats and fuzzy dice than engines.
I would also expect a machine shop to have broken parts, as most people do not rebuild engines that are working fine.
Hope this helps Ben.
The only LS7 failures I have seen with my own eye (not online) have been rod failures due to the TI rods scoring. Thanks for the input.
