Just out of curiosity does anyone have a completely built longblock?

BTW: I had the off-the-shelf Wiseco 9:0/1 pistons. ANY discussion about lag or being soft at low and mid throttle from my standpoint is irrelevant. My tuner (Mike Botti) did his magic, and if anything it had more grunt than stock. Incredible. It's STILL a big honkin 3.7L V6. Don't overthink this area. Firsthand experience. Thanks for that post. Let me know, please. Coop

Yeah I never heard or noticed anything regarding this crack, my fear obviously is that it will get worse. The shops fabricator is doing the repair soon so I'll post photos when he's done. I know he has to heat the manifold to repair it properly but that's all I know at the moment.

Usually an oil analysis finds coolant in your oil, or the coolant has oil in it.

Is this the motor you've claimed to have "had" for years now? And if you're waiting on GTM, January is a bit optimistic.....

it was pretty obvious from the rough idle and white smoke, you can tell you have issues before full failure like this if you find you're pushing coolant out of the overflow/expansion under higher boost. also you may find carbon build up in the overflow tank. looks loke black residue
