Dang - after reading that thread, there appear to be a whole bunch of low mile 3.0's that blow up during break in?!? There were what 2 over there, we have yours, airnights (RIP), and that NECO fella, but I think his was timing chain shredagge.

I guess if / when I blow my 2.5 and go 3.0 I'll just order a new short block from Bill to be (hopefully) safe
