ijust got a cheap vu ss as a non runner and once i got into it it was a fully built engine and 4l60e built in a maybe decent workshop and the timing chaine had got into the oil pump wore yhrough it and the big ends went and the pistons were hitting the head only 1200ks i found paperwork big dollars spent but at idle it sounded like a rotating noise in the valve train i know lol {monster performence}

I'm really keen to see the damage done from the pistons hitting the head

i get it im a ponch line or something sorry again

No need to be sorry, it's just good to see pics.

Definitive reason for the cause of the failure, someone fucked up big time and put the engine together with mismatched parts.

As immortality said above:
No need to apologize when you've done nothing wrong
We just want to see some pics of the damage
