That 14 hours of labor was costly but the peace of mind is invaluable! It is incredibly reassuring seeing the needle come down from the 50 psi range for oil pressure.

I’m sorry you had this happen to you, but I’m glad you caught it. It would be a shame to have that car with a blown engine. @Nightowl is facing a real sad situation that’s completely a warranty issue. Did you take your car to a speed shop or a private shop? Did they have evidence that it was internally cracked? I also bought a Katech pump and waiting for warranty to expire to replace it. I still have 3 years on my GM warranty and my ZL1 only has 1400 miles on it.
