16:50, those steam vent lines are also to used to help bleed the coolant and prevent hot spots. The knock sensors are also there to prevent detonation. Great video btw
@concinnity1240
@concinnity1240 4 жыл бұрын
Just wanted to say, the Knock sensors are for measuring preignition/detonation, which can be catastrophic to the engine if left unchecked. The computer can retard timing and adjust other things in order to combat it. Detonation causes increased cylinder pressure and temperature and can result in melting a piston, for example.

Just so you know, I have a 5.3L engine in my garage, Just "because" of you. I paid 300 CAD for it. It's in good condition, and I am at the machine shop state and buying part state. And it's the first time I did work like that, the first engine ever, and I have a unique plan for it, like a mustang gt500 supercharger on my ls ;p. Thanks for making that series of videos; I must have watched it at least 3 times. But don't laugh; I've undoubtedly missed the part, in every ls video, on how to remove this #$% fan with a clutch on the water pump; I tried every tool, heavy tool, cutting tool, and I can't remove it. Now it's just a question of pride and easy packing for the metal scrapper. Everybody must know "how to hit him on the nose" to separate the two damn things. I'm afraid to search to see how stupid I am ;p. Or mine is stuff beyond anything. It will have an electric water pump instead.

I have a 2004 GNC Sierra 1500 4WD with this motor and my question is about my 4L60E transmission. I clearly don’t believe it would hold up to this build. Can I use the original transmission and have it rebuilt to withstand that beefed up 5.3 or do I need to upgrade to anew one and if so what would you recommend??? Also, would the transfer case need upgrades as well? And one final question can all of the OEM front accessories go back on as well as the original wiring harness?!? Because, I will be doing this build for the truck it’s in and using it to pull a 7x12, two axle box trailer for my yard company…

I believe you could have it beefed up but for the money you might want to just go with a 4L80E. As far as transferase upgrades go you can just get that beefed up and it would be more than fine it is a good unit. Yeah all the accessories will bolt up and everything should plug in, you will just have to figure out how to mount the MAF sensor on the intake tube but that is easy peasy. Thanks for watching!

Watched your video on LM7 build, great work. Got a question on costs comparison. I priced out your components last week with Summit Racing. it added up to around $8k not including the cost of a machine shop. Based upon the hardware that you used. just curious what the costs would be to purchase a similar engine already built thru summit racing or other sites. I feel like I have enough experience to do this type of job, but is the trade off worth it. Thank you

So is this a cast iron block 5.3? Also- how did you determine that it really is a 5.3 and not a 4.8 since they're identical externally? I know a lot of folks are out there selling 4.8's and saying they're 5.3's. I think there is a number code on the block?

Yes it is a cast iron block. The VIN of the truck tells me it's a 5.3. But it is always a good idea to double check.

I'm upset that you can find so many rebuild videos on KZbin for GM 5.3L But when you search Ford Triton 5.4L rebuilds the listing is very vague. Can Anyone offer some assistance?
@2carpros
@2carpros 3 жыл бұрын
Great question. The 5.4L Ford 3v is definitely a dark spot on Ford's engine history. They have tons of problems that can't really be solved without a large amount of work so people tend to stay away from them. I have a 2005 Ford 150 with the 5.4L 3v that I got for very cheap knowing I'd have to replace the engine at some point. If we do rebuild that engine you will see it right here on this channel BUT it will be a stock rebuild since there isn't any cool parts for it. Thank you so much for watching!
@peterjedsawyer4364
@peterjedsawyer4364 3 жыл бұрын
Yes I'm aware but the 3V Triton has a lot of Power despite its many issues. Some engine rebuilders will try to customize certain oil passage ways and galleys to allow more lubrication to the cams. I still see a lot of them today in the shop I work in for just simple routine oil changes. I'm very excited to see the video you have for the 3V Triton.
