where you located matt? iam in the whitby area


what do you mean l26 is that the lower block number? do they use the same pistons? i thought the SC version would be higher compression pistons?
i thought i had the l67/l32 motor.

So scotty would you think a chipped piston would let oil right into the sparkplugs/ combustion chamber and if so would i need to machine the bore or sleeve it or would it just be a swap of the piston piston rings and rods? i know its just theroy until i get a compression test and pull codes but at least i could sleep better knowing that tonight lol

That could be causing the detonation. i hope so cause i hate to pull the motor if that was only the case.
