    My name is Eric and I own and run a full service niche market salvage operation in Saint Louis, MO. Part of our model is buying blown up and core engines and tearing them down to sell the parts. I rarely get a story with these engines, mileage and history are usually completely unknown.
    This engine came in just as you see it, completely dressed. I knew from the beginning this engine had a major issue and was non rebuildable. I had no idea it would be this bad. These are pretty solid engines but people will always find a way to destroy anything. This is an Iron block 58x Gen4 LS architecture engine, LY6 RPO Code. Its a 6.0L, with rectangle port heads. This engine comes in 2007+ GMT900 full size trucks and suvs , Silverado and Sierra 2500HD, 3500HD. Express and savanna 2500 and 3500 as well.
    If you'd like to buy parts from this engine or others I've torn down, shoot us an email at Importapartsales@gmail.com.
    Hope you enjoyed this teardown and thanks for watching!
    -Eric
    OH, and the reason this engine has a religious problem is that its got a hole in it, its Holy. Now that I'm a dad I can get away with this type of humor.

    I honestly look forward to seeing the notification symbol for your tear downs. I have a great amount of respect for your talent and knowledge. I also really appreciate not having some cheap background music. Lastly, a lot of people doing videos about cars act like they invented the automobile. You are humble and not afraid to say “I don’t know “. You have the complete package. Thank you sir. Peace

      they look like the nitrile ones i get at harbor freight but you can get nitrile anywhere. don't get the 1 mil, those tear quickly and are not for working on cars. 2 mil is good, you could use them for a few jobs. but i get the 3 mil. i can reuse them over and over many times before they eventually tear. im sure some ppl dont reuse gloves but to me thats really just wasteful especially when you can reuse them so many times without issue.

    I have said it before on almost every video, the Sherlock Holmes as to who the murderer of the engine was, is equally interesting to see each time!
    If all you did was engine teardowns like this... I would still watch them and be equally entertained, these NEVER gets old, even when you pull apart the LS engine number 5 million, they never die the same way!
    Or they may have the same reason, but the failures never look alike.

    I've seen a crank broken like that after a buddy of mine was hard excellerating and all of a sudden he hydroplaned the rear tires. W all the load on the engine and then hydroplane the engine went WAY past its ability to stay together. He even drove it onto the lift. Got the pan down and crank broken in half just like that. Felt bad for him but still cool to see.

      I'm from Sydney, Australia and I blew a highly worked 6 cylinder GM Holden "red motor" in the same way. I was running triple 45mm weber carbs and a huge solid lifter cam in a 186 cube engine. These are a very old motor (based on the side plate Chev inline 6 from the 40s) designed to redline at about 4,000rpm, and have quite poor balance.
      Well, when I hit the water mine sent the tacho almost back to zero again... for a few moments at least.

    Always ALWAYS use an 800lb plus impact gun when tightening up your mains! You want to make sure to NEVER tighten anything on an engine equally or evenly try to tighten say the head bolts like 2 at 457ft lbs then 3 at 29ft lbs and the rest FCK it don't even bother! Never use assembly lube and make sure you clean up your cylinders with nothing less than 36 grit Emery paper. Use a steel framing hammer or sledge to mash in or out anything you really need. And as a secret way to make A LOT more power you should re-arrange the firing order aswell as stuff a couple ports on the intake manifold with some loose fitting steel wool.
    I'm happy I could help you up your game so tremendously, and you're welcome for all the power gain secrets
