Yikes

Those engines are supposed to be good for 321K, not 123K.

Sorry to hear about your bad luck Steve.

The silver lining for all of us is this is perfect timing for a new build thread from you. Kwhizz's build should be done pretty soon and we'll need something to keep us entertained over the winter months.

Hopefully our trip won't be as exciting. Our 12 passenger van (<span style="font-style: italic">seats out</span>) is loaded to the max, and we're heading out in a few hours for the 400+ mile drive. Setting up tomorrow, then it's SHOWTIME Sat &amp; Sun! I'm ready... really ready. Yikes, now I've jinxed myself. Hope not. Good luck to ALL traveling!

What I need is for Kwhizz to install a ZL1 engine in my Suburban.

Looks like it was the head gasket. Blew the radiator catch tank cap off and and the rest of the coolant went out the exhaust pipe in a white mushroom cloud.

The poor thing didn't like all that new found power with Day 2 power chip.

Murphy's Law applies -- now you understand why we put Destruct buttons on missiles ... at least you were pretty close to home.

*Destruct buttons* Isn't that the ignition switch on a 6.5 GM Diesel? Just kidding. Steve did VERY well going 123,000 miles with out any major issues. Nice to have friends that will lend him a New Truck with a phone call! We all need friends like that. See you at the Show.

Steve, I feel your pain. Our Bookmobile (w/ over 2,500 auto books onboard) has had a catastrophic failure in transit through West Virginia. With 9 author signings we will be improving. We will have our authors books, but that's it. :-(
