Awesome! Love these motors. I had scored a 2005 LQ4 a couple months ago for only $100.00. The reason? Owner had claimed that it had lost oil pressure. The reason for the loss of oil pressure was caused by the oil pick up tube O-ring had failed. If it spins it wins, and it spins. It'll be getting dropped into my '68 C10 hopefully by next spring.

I’d like to find the spring compressed yall were using, it’s seems really handy in a tight spot since it’s small, and frankly I’m tired of using the pneumatic spring compressor, it’s just too big and bulky 😅 but yeah what spring compressor did you use?

@ModifiedCrew 2 жыл бұрын

I think I got it off of amazon or eBay. And while it did the job it barely survived the build. I would only recommend for a one time use.

After watching those rings being taken straight from their sleeve and installed obto the pistons I'm hoping that the machine shop cut each set and numbered them for each hole and that these guys didn't just throw an uncut set of rings onto the old pistons.. Never built any engine without liberal use of break in lube on camshaft,bottom end,and rockers,even full and semi roller setups... What's that engine going into ??

@ModifiedCrew 2 жыл бұрын

Rings were already measured and prepped, plenty of lube was used on all parts and bearings just off camera as not all people want to see all the small details that go into building a engine. This is in a 65 Pontiac GTO clone and the video will be up once we get the last 2 parts we've been waiting on due to supply shortages

I’ve always wanted o build an engine, just to have the experience and expand my vocabulary. I have a 2003 Avalanche. I tore it down to put replace the lifters in it, but I was too late. The lifters came out in pieces. It’s been sitting for 5 years now, but I’m gonna pull the motor out and give this my best shot. I am definitely out of my comfort zone. But there are some good KZfaq videos, like this one, that I can use as a compass on m journey. Thanks for sharing this video.

Dyno numbers don't really mean a heck of a lot. Every dyno is different and no two will read the same. At the end of the day it's just a number. They should really be used for tuning purposes so you know how it's performing across the RPM band.
