re: New truck spin-off, overhauling a GM motor.

I'll try the leak down test. Like I said I see no oil on ground or in and around the motor itself. Hate to get rid of it because I'm tough on trucks. It was two years old when I bought it with low miles. Had to spend a 1500 on it back in 09 to rebuild the tranny, other than that, been a good truck, and don't have to baby it like I would a new truck, plus, I love the no payee of the montly noteee. And I'm 57, so I don't need no stinking, well, one of the best two smells in life anymore.
