02 z28 camaro build.

Well bought the camaro I have wanted for a long time, a 2001 z28 with 74,000 miles and no power options not even cruise control and a hardtop. It is a auto car no traction control. It has been garage kept since the guy bought it new, the car is very clean in and out.

Well after a month of owning and driving the car under 500 miles, went to start after a couple days of sitting. There was the noise no car person never wants to hear, what sounded like a spun rod bearing. After some parts start coming off found about 2 cups of water in the intake manifold. Come to find out the cowl was leaking water on to the intake and water got into engine and hydro locked.

Now I will be pulling the engine and putting a 4.8 or 5.3 for now.
