That was cool how you out those Pistons n Rods together. I'm gonna try that.

[@anthonyporumb826]

It's a flexible shaft .

[@jorgesoto9375]

I have cuestion for you ! How the 6.0 blow out the stamp pipe o - ring ?

[@plherrington9947]

What size is that single berry hone? Have a block sitting on the stand and would really like to clean up the lifter bores

[@marksrepairj623]

What did u gap the top and 2nd piston ring gaps to? Great video, good u didn't forget that oil plug by the cam gear, that would have sucked

[@FrankBUILTperformance]

Most definitely! I’ll have to check my notes. Hopefully I have them and not lost in the move lol

[@marksrepairj623]

It's no biggy was just wondering

[@dennisz494]

how many foot punds to turn the crank after building it to a short block?

[@jasonmancarti2086]

which loctite are you using on the lifter tray retainers 271 or 272?

[@markknight6910]

How much torque on that channel lock

[@Bacongrease00]

Use Motorcraft TA-31 it’s fantastic. Very good stuff a little expensive but was designed for the Diesel engines.

[@FrankBUILTperformance]

Yeah I’ve had great luck with Permatex gray

[@Bacongrease00]

@@FrankBUILTperformance yeah I use it on the bed plates and the oil pan adapter plate. It’s nice to have a 6.0 that doesn’t leak oil. Very strong bottom ends

[@BOBBY317]

Thanks for sharing!

[@acebarefoot]

Thanks for the video1 What kind of clearance to you want on the oil squirters with the new pistons. Thanks again.

[@FrankBUILTperformance]

Not sure I understand your question? I mean make sure they don’t hit?

[@galinafedchik9643]

Hello I have a question how much you charge 6.0 engine bulletproof stage 3

[@mrsincere4640]

Like the video man… I’m rebuilding my 6.0 as we speak.. How did you make the bracket that attaches to the motor mount for the stand??

[@FrankBUILTperformance]

Thanks! An employee of mine back in the day made them from some schedule 40 pipe & 1/4” plate. Kinda sucks because HF doesn’t make these stands any more.

[@sublime12201]

Question:: If my shortblock looks good can you just order standard bearings and rings?

[@FrankBUILTperformance]

Yup!

[@jorgeruano5570]

Hey, is the oil hole for the lifters supposed to face the front of the motor?

[@FrankBUILTperformance]

Orientation doesn’t matter

[@johnnycortez46]

If a customer sends you a bare block . And everything you need to build a short block. More less how much labor cost is that? Just a ball park answer. Thx

[@FrankBUILTperformance]

I don’t use customer supplied parts on my engine builds. Too many variables. If you’d like to email [e-mail] I can get you a quote. I should have a 6.0 short block available soon

[@johnnycortez46]

@@FrankBUILTperformance 10-4 I got you. Thx again buddy

[@Dirt18]

Awesome videos.

[@FrankBUILTperformance]

Thank you!

[@chriswood7283]

What the cost on the stage 4 build? I have a 6.0 with 245k on it and i think it time to give it freshen up

[@jdatwood7086]

$18,000 is my guess

[@dennisz494]

Does anyone!!!!! rotate the motor after getting the crank, pistons and cam in, or does everyone wait until they install the engine to find out that they jammed it up and must remove and tear it apart5 agtain?

[@FrankBUILTperformance]

Always do

[@jessejames1395]

Do you plastic gauge all the bearings, or….?

[@FrankBUILTperformance]

I use micrometer / dial bore.

[@435alive]

Good stuff.

[@FrankBUILTperformance]

Thank you!

[@harjinderkaur2384]

Timing alognments is basically in between the valley if someone dont have tool.

[@FrankBUILTperformance]

Yeah how I did it before. But these tools are like $80 so it’s not a bad thing to have

[@quinnsullivan7679]

Can the 6.0 bebuild to increase the horse power up to 400 to 425 hp and have a reliable pulling motor ? ?

[@Peaksideperformance]

Absolutely can

[@quinnsullivan7679]

@@Peaksideperformance is there a build plan to do this. I have 2004 with the good bad 6.0. I pull horse trailer with it long distance and need the reliably of a stock engine but need more hp to climb long grades.

155cc injectors and a KC Stage 1 is a nice set up

[@Bacongrease00]

How did the engine hold up?

[@FrankBUILTperformance]

Still going strong around 7k miles on it, no issues

[@robertoudokrapf453]

OLÁ. 24/12/23 Assisti a desmontagem do motor. Comento apenas o que vi no vídeo. A análise das costas das bronzinas (chapa de aço) é tão importante (ou até mais) que o lado da liga ante fricção. Tratando-se de um motor com grande alteração no sistema de lubrificação e de componentes internos do motor, deveriam identificar o "perfil" de todas as bronzinas com um micrômetro centesimal 0 a 25mm com 1 ponta redonda. Não vi conferirem o comprimento e aperto das bronzinas. (e o uso de MARRETA?) O assunto é muito mais longo, ABRAÇOS... Roberto Udo Krapf

Can u do my 6.0 power stroke

[@hudielflores191]

If you in new york rockland County

[@MARKC0R3]

No need to soak lifters?

[@FrankBUILTperformance]

Seems like some people say to do it, some people say not to. I don’t and haven’t had an issue

[@prevost8686]

Most lifter companies say not to soak their lifters.

[@619mrtury]

Where are you located?

[@FrankBUILTperformance]

[@victordelarosa589]

Bro where did you go to school I wish I was a diesel mechanic

[@FrankBUILTperformance]

Learned on the job, from people willing to teach, internet / youtube, and a lot of trial & error.

[@hankclingingsmith8707]

CLEAN THE SHIT OUT OF THE BLOCK, AND THEN PICK THE CRANK OFF THE DIRTY SHOP FLOOR AND AS YOU SAY SLAM IT IN. NO THANK YOU.
