There is no better feeling than that first fire of an engine!!! Nicely done, brother. Big fan of your work, Matt. I remember rebuilding the carb on my Z50 with my son from your video years ago.
Ive been into jdm cars for 20 years. Im ready for a Corvette now, I decided this week 😂. Cant wait to sell my subaru and start the next project. Gonna do a stroker with texas speed cam and setup for super simple manifold port nitrous system. I always wanted a n20 button❤
Man I am so glad I found your channel! I am rebuilding a 6.0 LS on my channel now. How did you find your machine shop that polished and cleaned the crank?
Great job! Curious since it had been a couple years, how has motor perfored? Anything you wish would have done differently? Just bought my first 5.3 and getting ready to do same buildby watching you channel! Thanks in advance!
Runs great and now about 450-500hp with 10# of boost. I wish I went with a higher volume/pressure oil pump than the one I selected for my application. Only regret so far.
hey man! what did you use when you sanded your top end flat surface? and what grit sand paper did you use thank you for the video! this literally all i need for the build i want!
Hey buddy, can you tell me the details on the accessories setup, engine mounts etc. In order to fit the engine in your car? I have a 70' that I'm putting a 6.0 in is why I'm asking. Thanks in advance!
Top notch video! What was the piece of equipment that looked like a sand blaster? Seemed to be some sort of high pressure water sprayer but I want to know for sure
I would love to do a LS swap in my 68 chevelle and get rid of the 396 it's not a number matching car. when doing the swap would you need a computer or wiring harness for the motor?
The difference is - first LS for sedans and L for trucks like LY6 and ls2 ,L77 for caprice both are 6.0 both rectangular port head -second the block material always specially in gen 3 LS the truck version is an iron block and sedan version is aluminum block -the last difference is intake the truck are longer and bigger and that’s it 😂😂😂
If you look up parts for it, they are all called Gen 3, 4.....etc. Looks like you have about 300,000 emails top send out to tell everyone they'e wrong.

faster than any top fuel crew !!! great job matt!! you enjoying it after all the speed bumps in a build of this kind..!!
I put a 5.3 with 180k in a c10. Elgin 1840p cam, pac1218 springs, and a billet 78/75. This has been its fourth year on 10psi. Fun rides
@@Genx4 I have the same combo except cast wheel. I'm at 10psi also on E. Looking to increase that soon. Yeah it's fun!

How’s it turned out ?
@@fishnmaster421 Bringing the block to the machine shop Monday. I finally had some budget to continue the build.
@@Yankee1776done yet?
Nice work!
Need to bumble bee your knowledge man!
Great video. You have a new subscriber. How much would you charge to do that for someone???
How heavy is the top engine cover to get to the pistons? Can you replace the piston rings with the engine on the car? Thank you for a great film.
You need to pull the engine to replace the piston rings
I wondering if I should do this in my 70 nova, I have a cammed 454 in there at the moment. But wanted to go more modern as I want to daily it
I have question now when I install timing chain should I let the piston 1 at TDC or just met 2 dot like what I saw in this video
What did I get myself into?? The last engine I built was an 86' AMC 360, 25 years ago. It still runs today. Why did I take this on???

Curious on why you didn’t replace the rocker arms or at least the bearings in them
Nice work. Why not replace the pistons?
They were in good shape and usually don't fail.
What type of setup of wet stone or dry stone u used to clean the surface of the engine block pal?

Do you have videos with more details specific etc? I have a LS 5.3 and I’d like to rebuild it.
Yes on my channel
@@HTMR Thank you, I'm going to see them all and wish me luck and one more thing, where do you buy the kit to rebuild whats the best brand?
What year LS engine did you you use , c clip on pistons
2005. Gen 3 with gen 4 rods/pistons. Best of both worlds.
Enjoy watching these. Mine is still on the stand, I need to buy lifters and ls swap oil pan for fox
Awesome video. I need the slow mode though!
I have those on my channel
hey man! what did you use when you sanded your top end flat surface? and what grit sand paper did you use

ruclips.net/video/yE133MoR3jw/видео.html
What about the anti-wear coating on the pistons? Is it not needed?
Not sure, but it has been running great for 2yrs.
please provide a video with all part numbers please or a google docs, watched the whole build series like 15 videos but didnt write down parts
All links are in vid description of the build series.
What did you wash the pistons with why did it look like a sand blaster
@@tezzasbigbuz3933 my diy vapor blaster.

Yes
Anyone know where I can pick up that crank pulley removal tool form? Thanks

I would love to do a LS swap in my 68 chevelle and get rid of the 396 it's not a number matching car. when doing the swap would you need a computer or wiring harness for the motor?
Yes there are many ECU options, however I would go with a Holley : ruclips.net/video/0s_sCcoQqDM/видео.html
Located?
Spent all that time cleaning heads and ignored the block. Sumbeach was muddy lmfao
"Rebuilt"😂
I wish I have your knowledge
What kind of wash cabinet is that?

What is he squaring off?
How much did it do on the dyno
No dyno yet. Should do 500-600 rwhp no problem.
I want him to do all my motor work where is this guy
The whole time i was thinking wait those internals look stock?? Then i saw the turbo and now i see why its 500hp
What did you use to clean you deck with?

I did not see you address the chronic hydrocilator issue on this model of engine.
Huh?
The fuckin what? 😂😂
I see you didn't sort the chronic meth issue?
Yeah cause it not a part or a word for that matter.😂
@@HTMRwhat harness did u use
sand blasted pistons... that's hilarous.
It's actually vapor blast....totally different....I know so funny.
Sweet
Is there the same video without it speeding through it with commentation?
Yes check out my channel.
I did, all I can find is the time lapse. Do you have a link I can use?

I got spare 20 mins build me one .....
Not LS engine. Deceptive title
the only difference from an ls is the ls are aluminum blocks.
definitely a Gen 3 LS, check your knowledge
The difference is
- first LS for sedans and L for trucks like LY6 and ls2 ,L77 for caprice both are 6.0 both rectangular port head
-second the block material always specially in gen 3 LS the truck version is an iron block and sedan version is aluminum block
-the last difference is intake the truck are longer and bigger and that’s it 😂😂😂
IT IS A VORTEC NOT AN LS...SAME PLATFORM BUT NOT AN LS ENGINE
If you look up parts for it, they are all called Gen 3, 4.....etc. Looks like you have about 300,000 emails top send out to tell everyone they'e wrong.
Full rebuild this is a plastigauge re ring job
