the reason why they wont cover it is cuz the part the cause the motor to blew is not covered which would be the Oil Pressure Sending unit

yea.... that sounds like some BULLpoop to me man....
If the Oil pressure sender blew out and caused a Catastrofic Engine Failure, then that should be covered, call Olds, and biotch them out, cus that should be covered.
If persay it was like the oil cooler in the rad that got punctured then i could see that not being covered... but the oil pressure sender is bullpoop...

Since the warranty covers the $3,700.00, throw some extra cash @ that shop and have them port them heads ! :thumbsup: A port-match with the lower intake manifold would definately be a plus over stock. Awesome news about the motor being covered, btw....

Wow I bunnying HATE insurance companies. They serve no bunnying purpose other than to give people a hard time after paying their fees and seeing poop in return when it's rightfully deserved unless you spend even more money to take them to court. Seriously. Bullcrap.
