lolololo Liners! (it looks to be a 03-04, oil pumps do explode on those) Seriously, what weight oil and filter is he running? as for leaks? hahaha check the lower intake seals and or valvecover gaskets. Take your light and squeeeeze a beam up behind the bracketry on either side of the timing chain cover, if its covered in filth, theres yer problem. backside: follow the o2 sensor wires up, the higher you go the nastier it'll continue to be. at the top o the tranny torque converter housing if its filthy as all gently caress, bobs your uncle. spotlight the fore/aft of the heads for valvecover leaks. Rear mains don't usually leak, Side crucifix seals do!, the oil pan uses a rubber gasket, Front mains sometimes take a poo poo. Rare ocasions the oil pressure relief valve will leak, if so ding me, I have a box of em in the garage. Air injection is a megabitch to remove. Hold the injection valves with a wrench while you spin the nut or else it'll crinkle that piece of poo poo injection tube.

The chain cover itself is usually hard to make leak, an oil port on the passenger side. Usually the coolant passages blow the gently caress out, but if you're pulling it out, toss a oil pump in it for safe measure and remove the guide pin. V covers are held in with 12pt 5/16" socket. E: D2s have 1 oil port, D1s have two, hurf.

Yes, but with high rear end miles. the early 3.5/3.9/4.2s were the worst offenders. Middle cam bearings could be wiped out, I've found that several times now with non-oil cooler engines. it'll clatter/tick like a motherfucker when cold till it builds oil pressure. Its a megabitch to replace them.

pin-the-loving-liners. Adiabatic is more than qualified to do such a thing. When you do the vc gaskets, do the lower intake as well, and the throttle body heater. these things like to leak. also replace the TB heater plastic hoses with 5/16" hose.

Thats not the cureall either! The definitive fix is tophat liners. You still need to timesert the block to keep the headbolts from pulling the threads out. Egg out the coolant ports between the block/head because they flow like poo poo. well. the heads period flow like poo poo. like flathead mower kind of poo poo. LS swap...

I've had two engines drop enough to grab a ring and tear the piston/ring/liner all to hell. Drove one 200 mi on 5 cylinders that way because the pos dropped 3. later engines, eh. It'll tear up the firering and blow the side of the hg out.

the rockers have pressed in chrome caps that butt up against the pushrods. I've seen those fail too, but its OBVIOUS as gently caress. Its not as much stupid design as it is old design. a lot has changed in 50 years of engine technology.

Its almost bolt in if you know which GM parts to pillage from what. NVs emissions forbid me from legally doing an engine swap. CA I could do it after paying some fines and visiting the bar guys. I wanted a 6.2/6.5, which is still an improvement...

Yeah. But theres inadequacies with the platform too. Radius arms are poo poo. axles are made from wet babyshit, steering boxes are bullshit. The Tcase is the only drat good thing in the running gear. It was just worth it for me to cash out vs try and unfuck the mess.

Mount gay is rad as gently caress. add in some tonic water, lime and a little freshly ground nutmeg and mmmmm hmmmmmm. P sure I kept that company afloat on that alone for like 2 years. Krakken? lolol that poo poo. I'll drink it, but boooy does it make a great industrial solvent.
