Thanks again Terry. Drilling the stock cranks aren't too bad. Drilling a forged crank like a K1 or other aftermarket can be quite a different story. I found that using a carbide tipped masonry bit that is a size smaller than your pin, then finishing with a high quality metal bit on slow speed, works best. You could just buy a full carbide metal bit but they are crazy expensive and easy to break. This is a low buck solution that I found works well. Just thought I would share. Thanks and keep the video's coming brother.
So you're placing a pin in the keyway once drilled to brace the pulley and drilling another hole to make sure the pulley stays secure in position to the crank? These pulley's aren't just serpentine pulley's, they're actual harmonic dampers (acoustic resonance). Have you thought of installing a Fluidyne Pulley?
Hey stupid question, I'm sure you've already done one of these but do you have the oil pan baffle or relocation pickup tube. And second have you ported the headlight, there is allot of material that needs to be removed and it's easy to do. Once I ported the left headlight I noticed more low end torque and it runs smoother. I did it in five minutes the car drives like I got a new cold sir intake. Also I had the k&n and had to cut the front part of the thing that blocked all the cold air from coming in. Your videos give me inspiration.
try lining up the crank, put the pin in while the pulley it somewhat on the crank. tighten it down and the balancer should align itself to the pin and crank.. keep me posted..
Sweet vid! Question though: Why don't you use the ATI pinning kit? The kit pins it on the top. If you are using a crank pulley with a keyway, you can simply slide it over. That way if you ever have to replace the crank pulley, it's much easier and no need for re pinning.
Hi Terry, can u tell me how to tell a ly6 6.0 block from another 6.0 block. And what would be a good price for a bare ly6 block that needs some work. Love ur videos, n keep them coming. Thanks Tom
whats good CC, cam companies usually give you a pack of lube for breaking the cam in. before i swap the cam out i always ask the manufacture of the cam..
coverman66 I want it to get when I want it to get when I need it to get.i don’t plan on racing it at all but I need it to turn a set of 24” rims and a few subwoofers that’s a little weight. My auto friends don’t think I can do it without their help. But I’m on a budget and it’s had not knowing what I’m doing but I know the basic stuff like removal and replace
coverman66 I have a complete LSA super charger,CT’s-v crank pulley, I need that bracket with with the pulleys on it, What camera you have in your Chevelle I want to piggyback you car. I know you are very busy but can you send me a list of everything I need for my motor to run like yours. Please and thanks for you help sir
whats good Hustle.. here is a video i did that tells the some of the parts and cost.. if you have and questions feel free to reach out.. ruclips.net/video/YNYnSnebC50/видео.html
Terry- the round silver thing supplied in the crank pinning kit would be called an index tool/drill guide plate or something similar. For an extra measure of safety you could coat the pins with a Loctite sealant made for bearings (product number 641). www.amazon.com/LOCTITE-BEARING-RETAINER-Sealant-Retainer/dp/B01MQJ92VM
It’s been 6 years since I first watched your videos and your still taking me to school.
much appreciated

great info MT.. thanks..
Sounded so complicated when you verbally explained it. But when you showed it, it was so simple. Thanks.
sorry about that, sometime being detailed sounds confusing lol
Great work! emotes and nice voice, you born for vlogs!
much appreciated.. thanks

if i was racing and changing the face i would go that route or ATI .. but its a set it and forget it for me..
As always, smooth AF....Pro!
thanks brotha Sov.. much appreciated..
Keep them videos coming I’m learning so much about ls engine cause u
lolol thanks brotha FG.. much appreciated
How would I go about this if installing a new blancer with a already pinned crank with two holes on it already? Thanks in advance
I think it's always safe to do!
Good vid Terry. My offer atill holds. If you need a keyway machined in a crank just pay for shipping. I can also broach a balancer for it as well.
thanks and i might take you up on it.. i have a 67 chevelle on my next build lool so dont be surprised lol
Very well explained.
much appreciated, i have alot more videos coming.. thanks brotha Mickey
Awesome man 👍 keep up the great content.. can't wait to see that beast when it's done
thanks brotha David.. i will be videoing every step of the way..
I got to do this to my 2005 vette.... Seems like drill bit would dull and walk , because crank is hard material
nope.. it drills like butter.. i got 2 in mine..

Great video👍🏾👍🏾
much appreciated brotha JJ.
What would be the easiest way to reinstall and align an already pinned balancer on pinned crank. (Serviced your engine, but now reinstalling)

true brotha Phil, i had the LSA pulley and im a set it and forget it guy.. ATI is a great product.

How deep did you drill? 35mm?
Do you have to stake the holes the pins go into? I'm wondering what holds them in place after you insert them.
whats good brotha Brian.. when you bolt the tool to the pulley, it will holds tight for you to drill the holes. hope this helps..
@@Coverman66 yeah, I didn't realize the head of the bolt covers the pins. Great video.
I'm digging the vids... keep it up..
always JJ. thanks for watching
Great info as always. I have a question that's off subject. Do you use high zinc bteak-in oil for your LS builds?
whats good CC, cam companies usually give you a pack of lube for breaking the cam in. before i swap the cam out i always ask the manufacture of the cam..
Stupid question but I gotta ask. Do you need to pin an ati?
not a stupid question. ATI makes their own version i would use if i had a ATI pulley..
Terry how do I know where to tape it so I know where to stop ?
i measure the depth of the pin and put the tape a just a lil higher on the
drill so the pin will seat counter in the drill..
@@Coverman66 so basically I want it to sit a little bit less than flush in the crank snout right ?
I would like to do a Ly6 swap on a budget what should I get to make a nice motor. Going in 1983 Pontiac. I know you said LSA super charger what year?
you can get a cam and that will make a nice street ride. how far do you want to go with the car? what are you looking to do.

Will the pins backout over time ?
it would be impossible brotha Red.. the crank bolt holds them in..
That pin seemed like it went in with little to no resistance, what keeps it from slinging out ?
the bolt head
the crank bolt locks it in place..
What if you broke off the key way off the lsa is it possible to just pin it like a regular crank?
never tried that, i find it easier to just pin it out.
That's a good one 😉
thanks JR.. much appreciated brotha
How much power does the engine have to make before you do this mod.? Thanks
anything over 500hp i would do this mod.. whats good Giuseppe..
@@Coverman66 Hey Terry. I'm working on getting the A/C going on the Monte. Not much fun driving in 100* weather in a car that has no A/C and T-tops!
i know that feeling lol
I just spun the pulley on my bone stock 98 C5. So no very much power if you plan on touching the Rev limiter at all
