@bentune: after getting the LT1 completely removed from the Corvette, I can now see the cause of its catastrophic failure. it appears as though a valve spring broke, which is all too common on these Gen 5 engines, and resulted in the destruction of a piston and rod which then went through the oil pan. there may be further damage inside the engine that I cannot yet see but once the AC compressor was removed, it revealed some damage to the block. therefore, this thing is completely trashed and cannot be salvaged. sad day. #bentune #hptuners #dyno #tuning #engine #building #gm #Chevrolet #Corvette #C7 #stingray #failure #broke #trashed #scrap #sad #Friday #LFG #timetorelax #fyp #foryou #ouch

It's crazy to think that a $10 part wrecked a $10k block.

What are your thoughts on replacing the valve springs on the new engine given GMs problems with valve springs? I try to promote factory parts but maybe not on valve springs.

Ben how do you give your customers a price for your services? Like give them your rate per shop hour and say a minimum of however many hours you think it'll take?

I’ve done no less than 3 stingrays with blown motors. Factory stock, not abused. Never sent a rod tho. That GM motor is the way to go for sure.
