This ought to be a good one for some....

I had a Stock Chevy 2.8l V6, then threw a rod, then built it up :haha: the crank split in half after 3,000 of non-hammerous driving:mad: (not my fault, just a bad crank) Then went to a Chevy 350 TBI out of an ex-cop car ('91 Caprice) Which is what I am currently running as we speak, nothing like barking 33s at a rolling 45mph on I-5 changing lanes:haha:
 
2.8L Ford V6 (yeah.. the one that doesn't suck and self destruct :fawkdancesmiley: ) Ran it to 280,000 miles and pulled it running after the blow by was puking to much oil out of the rear main seal.

Put the '68 302 in and have ran it since...
