I did something wrong with my thread notifies. I did not get a notice on this post. Separate issue.

source was email thread of 98 time frame. It should be in the archive. Strange you would not remember it. My recollections was that it was from a credible source Graham (sp) or JVD or ???
As memory serves two engines were lost.
Other topics of the era were the reason for the Two PVC valves (not just one) when oil got all tossed out of the block during overnight engine tests or some such thing. Somebody on here that goes back to that time frame might remember more.

I'd look for it but currently up to my eyeballs in hospital visits to a critically injured family member (pedestrian run over in a crosswalk)
If you can't find it and really need the info for some research I'll do the foot work later.
Right now, I need to run to the airport again to pickup more family.

So, Hib
You still recommending Dexcool for the LT5?
Do you have any sources stating that it's ok?
