good luck! sounds like you found the root cause and are well on the way to the fix.
I admire the determination and for sure the wazoo guys are unique in their talents.
we are pretty lucky to have this segment of the brotherhood.
as I look at the LS guys the LS9 hg is getting slung on anything regardless of bore (sheesh)
my next build I'd love to try the AES liners, maybe we can talk Phil into it, he seems to want more for that big stroker before he even gets the rings seated
the LT5 stroker is just way too much fun.
