I like how you solve the oil pickup problem by adding washers.👍 Have you done a video where you show how to solve common problems with engine assembly. Wrong bearing clearances, to much end play etc. Love the videos.

I use to have the Chevrolet SS the Australian Holden car came with the LS3 was pushing out over 500HP After my son did some work to the engine. Me and my son missed that car. Now that I am retired I having thoughts of getting another one. The only car that really doesn’t lose value.

And to think I worked as a auto tech for over 20 years and power tools were only used when really needed not when ever possible. Seems everyone today is doing power tool happy. The general public working on their own stuff should do their engine assembly without power tools. As bad things can and do happen no matter how talented and careful you are when using said tools. For the pros I leave it up to them.

Random question? The 4.8L LS is a 3.78 bore (or close I believe)? I’m wanting to build an AMC 304 V8. Custom pistons are Stupid expensive, even cast? If I could use off the shelf 4.8 Forged Pistons they would be dramatically cheaper( I understand it will have to be bored & homes to the exact size). What’s the odds the skirt length & the in the hole size will work. New to the Channel any help would be appreciated. Thx!

What brand standard bearings are you running? The rotating assembly I got has acl coated bearings but when looking online I can’t find a match set of x bearings for if I need to split the difference as you did on the mains. Texas speed said they use a specific bearing but I can’t even find these on their site. Was thinking about going with king bearings or buying acl bearings and starting over. I believe the bearing name on the box says performance engine bearings but when searching the part number it comes up with engine tech which what I’m finding is acl bearings
