Working on the 6.6L after its oil pump BROKE OFF, and fell into the pan 😲

Necessary work on the 1986 Z28 with the 6.6L motor. Out of all things, the dam pump BROKE off of the rear main housing. It was a VERY POROUS and POOR casting made in China, according to Mellings spec sheet. It was a Melling M55HV. It is being replaced with a Melling M99HVS because of the poor casting on the M55HV. Please "Stay tuned" for updates! 👍 Pops

    It's a good thing my son has "common sense". He shut her down immediately. It doesn't appear to have done any damage, but we will get to hear the motor fire up again tonight or tomorrow. Thanks for following along this fiasco! 👍 Pops
