Ask me more questions about it and I'll get back to you tomorrow, have had a rough day and I'm done typing.
sounds perfectly normal for an lt1 to me

you tend to get used to the whole motor blowing up thing after the 3rd or
4th rebuild

if you need any help with the LT1 though I'm just as gulible as scott, I'll do
what I can to help you out man...just let me borrow the tinker bell blanket
next time and we'll call it even

the hobbit in your crankshaft is deperesed and needs therapy
your kenutor valve is leaking
you need to flush your turn signal fluid
bumper seal just gave out
you have a boost leak on your flux capacitor
muffler bearing is shot
and the cow jumped over the moon

F'n chevy... well me and James (I mean james did, while I stood there petrified looking at that mess of an engine) yanked the driver side valve cover off the check the pushrods, but they seemed to be fine.

maybe your oil sending unit or simply the oil pressure sensor broke?

Doubtful, too coincidental that the engine would stall out and start making metal on metal noises at the same time.
