To answer Pampered-Z it was a light layer on the anti-freeze dip-stick. It defenitly looks like it should be flushed, maybe I should defenitly try that first before i jump to major conclusions. The motor has 106,000 miles on it, the trans only has about 5k. Ive always wanted to do a hot cam, and I already have a new water-pump & opti set up so I should defenitly look into a rebuild. I just cant decide what I want to do yet. The re-sale value of LT1's is pathetic these days Plus my car is going to be a project car for work in a month or so & Id hate to test and abuse it and have the motor pop on me un-expected! My major problem is the potential down-time, thats why ive been thinking of a spare motor with a tubular front end to just swap straight in!

Nope, my car didn't get the oil cooler.
