After last weeks N54 Teardown and the 911 video, I needed something I could do quick! I chose a 6.0 we just got in this same day. Its an Iron block, gen4 6.0L LS architecture engine, the LY6. This is a dished piston, non DOD/AFM engine with Variable Valve Timing, and 823 rectangle port heads. Sometimes, we will get a core or bad engine in that has been tampered with. Parts swapped, missing pieces, I've even had them missing rods and pistons! Thankfully the swindley stuff was relatively confined to one particular part here and I still will come out pretty well.
My name is Eric and I own and run a full service auto salvage business called Importapart located in the Saint Louis MO area. Part of our model is dismantling and selling parts from rare and niche market engines. I don't build or rebuild engines, we simply supply hard parts to those that do!
Want to see a particular engine torn down? I may have already done one! No really, check out my other videos for the engine you'd like to see! I've made over 70 other teardowns from a Cummins to an LS7, and from Rotary to Ram Ecodiesels. You can expect a new teardown every week!

For those that read the entire description... there will be a surprise teardown midweek! And no, its not my 996 Engine.
As always I appreciate all of the comments, feedback and even the criticism.
What will I tear apart next week? Just wait and see!
