      if i remember u have an LT1 right? if so its prob the rear main seal. u can do it urself just need to pull the tranny out and get couple hand tools. also the wires u can do urself and the plugs. dont go to dealers. they charged my buddy with a 5.0 mustang(90 GT) 600 to replace a MAF sensor and an oil change. yea he got messed really hard

        Hey buddy, Try and clean up your sentences b/c they are very hard to read. I mean I know this is not grammer school but makes it easier for us to help you out. ha ha
        What are the caps? Yes Cut outs are illegal if you have them uncapped. They are for "Off-Road" use only. You can have one installed and simply have it capped and you should be fine. If it is the rear main seal then yeah your going to have to take it to the shop and get it replaced. Thats going to be a pretty penny.

            It doesn't make sense that you'd need a fuel pump because the oil pressure is bad.

                They either blew a head gasket and was repaired, Or something wa changed. When you do this you have the heads resurfaced which means they shave off very little of the face of the head.

                  Or they could have done it in an attempt to increase the combustion ratio.
