When a truck engine was needed GM came out with the Iron cast, naturally aspirated, "Big Block". These are Torque monsters good for 300,000 miles. Today - A turbocharged small CID, twisty Aluminum casting, sensor plagued, plastic prolific, Mexico manufactured Rotating Assembly, Head Gasket Blowing, Mass missing, tinker-toy of a engine if applied to the same workload the Big Block was designed for will never outlast the financing terms of the truck it is installed in. Junk!
