I'm 100% sure its a lifter eating away at the cam. Its an excuse to build the thing so I'm not mad. 160k on it and the previous owner wasn't up to par on the maintenance so it owes me nothing.
Fair enough. Hopefully you caught it soon enough that it didn’t send Metal through the whole thing

Theres some shiny bits in the oil, very fine metal hairs. I'll be breaking the entire motor down and everything. If the block needs work ill end up boring it out, if its good then ill just build a pretty strong little 5.3.
Next is pulling the motor or doing the rear cage. Still trying to figure that out.
I still have to do that and gussets for the lower portions, but at least the glass isn't taking up room in the garage anymore!
No bumper? lol
I was more worried about the dogs chewing on them tbh lol but yeah they take it a lot of room.
Honestly, i'm digging the scuffed no bumper look. I'll probably make a simple tube one like I had on the 04sshd
