    Usually it goes:
    1. Purchase LS v8 vehicle.
    2. Do incremental upgrades due to budget restraints.
    3. Drive constantly at 6800 rpm.
    4. Suffer engine failure.
    5. Buy junkyard LS for cheap, use "savings" for forced induction.
    6. DON'T INSPECT the LS. Treat it as schrodinger's cat.
    7. Plan for 6 lbs of boost but apply 15 lbs.
    8. Blow engine up because piston ring gap was never adjusted for FI.
    9. Blame vehicle.
    10. Sell vehicle to junkyard.
    11. Repeat process from step 1.

      Then when you get back to step 5, you accidentally buy the blown LS that you sold to the junkyard with your old vehicle! lol

      I literally have an LS7 on letgo right now because the top ring butted under 8 psi on cylinder 7. I knew it would happen sooner or later and have a TSP 427 in now. Such is life.

      9k definitely isn't a lot of money to spent on a full running motor & transmission set up (with harness and accessories). You should see the price of just the long block we're using on the LSX chenille

      It really depends what you're doing to get the block to a workable spec. In our case it's mostly getting the motor ready for some new bearings. If you had to hone all of the cylinders, the cost would definitely be going up. We lucked out and didn't have to do that!

    I've been in a classic car business for so long and I always tell people that not all your average mechanics gonna work on it like these guys do. Swapping an engine from a junkyard is like flipping a coin. You might end up with good engine or you're gonna be spending lots of money fixing it unless you're a mechanic yourself. So keep your original 350 small block until you come up with 8-10k and get yourself a brand new ls3 or 383 stroker, 430hp for 6k. 5 years warranty = peace of mind.

    • @SalvagetoSavage
      @SalvagetoSavage  3 года назад +1

    Nice thing to show the cost for the engine rebuild. If you are not in the business you really dont have a clue how much an rebuild like that cost.

    • @SalvagetoSavage
      @SalvagetoSavage  3 года назад +1

      A lot of people think "ok, it's just a simple engine swap. It can't be too much." But there's a lot of work that goes into doing these swaps, and even more work goes into the project if you try to skate around getting quality stuff and get the cheap parts

    I think it hilarious that nowadays, inspections are just "looking" at everything... no leakdown test, no plastigauge, maybe a compression test? Went from installing a junkyard motor to just rebuilding everything...? to each his own....

    • @SalvagetoSavage
      @SalvagetoSavage  3 года назад

      We don't half ass stuff here. Compression/leakdown tests won't tell you half the stuff that pulling the motor apart will. Why would we put the motor back together to do a leak down test when we can already see that parts of the 6.0 had already failed? That doesn't make any sense.

    👈 this is a junk yard LS swap. Running driving 162k mile 03 avalanche donor. Dropped into a 98% rust free Texas 82 Gmc. Only thing changed was a rear main seal.

    • @SalvagetoSavage
      @SalvagetoSavage  3 года назад +1

      Heck yeah! We've gotten lucky with our swaps up until this point. Our 65 Stepside was a junkyard LS1. We rebuilt it to handle all the boost, but it was a clean, strong engine even before that!

      There's always cheaper ways to do it, and sometimes you luck out and find a good deal. We just wanted to show that sometimes projects like this can be opening a can of worms! Hope it doesn't discourage you from starting your own build! If you get a good platform that's already running, there's no reason you can't fix it little by little!
