well the short version is...
...got gas, was mainly a diesel mix, damn Hawthorne Shell.
injectors got stuck open, hydrolocked #1 cylinder, rod snapped and took out the side of the block, oil pan, a/c bracket, steering rack, etc.
That first happened back in August 2005.
I finally started to car with the new motor 2/27/07 and on the road about a month later.
As far as most people are concerned, my current setup is stock...
(the first pic, of the cleaner block, is from a '00 Z28 that went off roading and sheered the bottom of the engine. The crank came out in 3 peices. I bought the motor for some random parts and bolts, etc.)
Here are pics of the damage when my original motor came out...
