Double Roller in an LS? Don't be crazy!!

[@troyklutts8617]

I’m starting to feel special with my engine showing up in all these videos 😂

[@JACompetition]

You are special!

[@daveunbranded]

​@@JACompetitionin a short bus type of way?

[@robbygray9562]

Good info! Ive did many LS with just a single. Never any issues but this kinda opens my eye!

[@SpiveyNatas]

That is some very good engine saving information. Thanks for sharing.

[@bluecollarhotrods9781]

Great explanation, I see myself changing the way I think on some of the engines 'll be putting together in the future.

[@robertrenta]

very nice explanation...thank you. keep them coming

Seen key walk out before myself. That engine had bad vibration and didn’t have a good dampener. Blocking the key is an often overlooked item. Thanks for pointing it out. My list of things to modify is growing.

[@timothythompson3029]

Great tip on the key way length.

[@jonsetzer9556]

I also feel more comfortable with double roller when I use a solid roller camshaft that has some spring pressure to it

[@NightmareGarage]

Im super excited you are starting to make content, your one of the biggest inspirations for me to build my twin turbo stick 1981 camaro. I pulled it from a junkyard when i was 17. I have been waiting for this keep them coming!

Just recently, a quality single roller chain broke on an expensive race LS engine and caused major damage, I would not build a race LS without a quality double roller, its worth the additional effort to fit it.

[@Wesley-v1k]

You probably used oem GM one. Get a rollmaster billet set.

[@mjb242]

@@Wesley-v1k It was a high quality single roller used in a max effort Rock Bouncer which is on the limiter a lot.

Keep this stuff coming buddy, I appreciate your work. I’m liking and subscribing!

[@deanstevenson6527]

Thanks B & R Racing 🥝✔️ He brought me here. I grew up around Windsors and Clevelands. Timing gears for those are generally fiber vibration absorption dampers with single row chains. Similar issues with keyways.

[@baby-sharkgto4902]

On a reasonable street car a double is not necessary per se but I would never say a single is better. I use to always use double on LS engines until I saw very very reputable shops using a single so now I use single on the street just because it’s easier. Great video here! That little key and its location…. I have not seen that before.

[@waynegamble9802]

As a 30th camaro owner glad to see more of you and your knowledge

[@MichaelScudder72]

Eye opening on double roller when you actually see where it lands on the snout. I'm guilty of sticking to the single rows but I've never really had any high HP cars. Excellent information

[@ZenotiXe]

been waiting years for you finally starting to make some content, being from Norway, isnt always easy to watch the races and so usally a week after the race is done just refreshing on YT for any content with Grubworm. loving the content so far, cant wait for more in the upcoming time!

[@kenlangley924]

Great video…I’m installing the double roller now that you pointed this out. How is your Ripper car build going, have seen no updates for sometime on that car. Keep up the great work and Thank you.

[@dangerds1]

i really like the little details to building and engine , great info

[@leroythemastermechanic]

Troy is getting a killer engine base, iron block with billet STEEL main caps!

[@shawng7902]

Everyone told me I didnt need one. Probably dont. But being a turbo car with 2step on the brake. I figured it would beat the valvetrain all to hell. I have 3/8 .080 pushrods too. They are pretty heavy and moderate spring rate. I just couldnt see why not to.

[@jonsetzer9556]

They put that key out of line so that with the balancer offset it blocks the rear key from coming out. Not the greatest ideal but I asked the crank manufacturer that question years ago when I had a crank like that. Thought it was a dumb ideal myself

[@RocketGarageService]

Seen the FB post. Great video, please keep posting.

[@TTMINIONRACING]

[@vornice7604]

only reason for the single roller on these is because you cant fit double roller and a melling high volume oil pump, also the rollermaster chain set (best) has a big boss for the bottom sprocket like a double roller

[@MDC33147]

I'm running a comp cam double roller, no issues at all.

[@ironmike742]

Great video

[@WIESEL607]

👊

[@martygrajeda3457]

Good stuff 👍

[@JACompetition]

Thanks 👍

[@clarkmcmahan1595]

Every l.s I build for any customer has a double roller ...

[@mcintyretyler89]

I see what you see
