[QUOTE="AlbertaZ06, post: 270046, member: 149"] My new Aluminum L33 5.3L for the C10 👍. It’s in need of a rebuild, good thing is I have 2 other L33’s in the garage for parts 🤣. I was helping out a buddy on his Turbo 5.3L, pulled the engine to do a cam swap, lifters, and trunion upgrade. Tearing it down, found 2-burnt pistons, hard to see, but they were melting down 😬. Crankshaft and rod bearings are toast, this car had about 1 more pass before it went Boom 💥 ! So I traded him a set of LS9 head gaskets for the engine 👍 [ATTACH type="full" alt="E840D454-74E9-45AC-8AB5-5586F3CC9EB8.jpeg"]93783[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="16C62AA6-C164-4CE3-ACF7-AAC5E27AACA9.jpeg"]93784[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" alt="F5B90AB8-873D-451F-BC99-54F8790BC921.jpeg"]93785[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]93787[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]93788[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]93790[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
