Re: What did you get done? Thanksgiving edition 11/25

Finally got my 6.0 lq9! My buddy in Houston and his family drove over. He told me about the motor awhile back, I said heck, bring it. He said he thinks it has a bent rod...
I dropped the oil pan today, and ouch, broken rod and cracked piston, and some cylinder wall scratches and a little gouging. I was a little depressed. I called him up and let him know, he said he will find another one in running condition. I really can't complain, for the price, it has heads, water pump, coil packs. Not sure if the block is worth saving or not. I really don't want to drop a ton of ca$h on a rotating assembly. I'll wait for another to come along. I know he'll pull through for me.
Other than that, cleaning house after a weeks worth of company.
