Hi Guys, just getting into the blown motor so I don't really know whats salvageable nd what is not. The block has been blown on both sides, valves have been snapped and schrapnel everywhere in this thing. I was usuing it because I know the accesories can be a pain which is why I wanted the back ups ie A/C compressor, water pump, starter etc as the motor only has just under 16K original on it. I don't know how good the internals are but the one head is damaged. Pulled the cam cover off and the exhaust cam was damaged so I can imagine what the head will look like. Is there soemthing specific you needed. Technically the motor isin't mine but it belongs to a buddy. He told me to take whatever I needed and I told him I wanted the accesories and wires. He may have one good head still. sleeves? Crank who knows? I am cautious about selling items as I cannoy vouch for their saleability but my buddy will sell anything pretty much since it's no use to him. Once I reassemble my engine what is left will be sold if saleable anyway?
2. Why can't you run 4 exhaust cams in the LT5? I thought the only difference was the exhaust cam was slightly more aggressive in that it opened both exhaust valves simultaneously where the intake cam opened the primary first then the secondary intake valve. 4 exhaust cams therefore could open both intake valves together and get more flow? Not so?
