Thank you Scotty for not painting the engine black just like everyone is doing of late. I personally prefer the metal look as it’s easier to see oil leaks and problems when everything isn’t all black. Love this Ute and can’t wait to see its performance on the track.👊👍💪👌🙏

@@MrTonaluv possible, but would be a very rare situation (in a car), certainly not the norm. Most rear axles have seals on them between the bearing and the diff oil to stop any kind of washing / mixing. The full floaters Scotty just fit, the diff oil comes no where near the bearings.

Crank angle sensors seem to be the Achilles heel of the LS. Many people have given up on the factory location and put a reluctor wheel on the front of the damper to do two things. One not have to crawl under the vehicle and battle with hot headers and a starter to swap it out when it fails. Two reduced signal noise than occurs at high rpm and causes misfiring issues.
