Dude thank you for this. Really needed this

[@74cruzz]

best video i seen so far thanks

[@danh5631]

No BS , to the point , thank you and subscribed

[@vlldavid]

its always good to put a white mark top edge of bolt just to let you know there all torqued right.And none are missed.

[@jacobthornock317]

Thank you for keeping simple.

[@ansahm123321]

Thank you very much helpful explanation 🤙🏼😘

[@luiselvergalarga9190]

Great job. Really appreciate this. Be blessed Richard Iowa

[@LC-fl3zm]

thank you very helpful im doing heads on my ls

[@luissalinas1302]

Greatest video ever thanks brother

[@Wrensspeedshop]

Awesome video. I’m happy now knowing I did it right lol.

[@user-wv2bu6qm1y]

Thank you!

[@stewey956]

As a cylinder heads up, factory recommends torquing 1-10 first. 22lb, 90*, 90* (50* on the 9 & 10 if you have 1st design heads with 3 bolt lengths) THEN taking 11-15 to 22ft lbs.

[@shanehilton7547]

Stewart Chen either way those bolts are tighter than dicks hat band lol

[@barrypatin3441]

Thanks for video

[@JonathanRuiz-qg8go]

Thank you so much.

[@Apatzingenses]

Hola que tal tengo varias preguntas Tu crees que se muy inportante poner los tornillos nuevos ? Y por que es que muchos torquean en grados y otros en libras ? Saludos y todo el equipo tecnicos en unos dias enpezare a armar mi motor y este video me va servir mucho

[@zaino660]

Si, es mejor poner los tornillos nuevos..ya bienen con la pasta para que permanezcan firmes.

[@jamesguralski5156]

Is this the same for flex fuel ls gen 4 aluminum 5.3 block n 243 heats!?

[@rodneykunerth3426]

Please give this man some modern tools ! Great video!

[@johnnylobos50]

No shit 😂😂😂😂

[@austinthorne3264]

I prefer my torque wrench like that

[@Artoconnell]

He knows what hes doing.

[@toms183]

Uh, that style torque wrench is the most accurate

[@Efcey]

Would this work for my 6.2 engine? I have a 2016 c7 stingray

[@TheSilverSurfisher]

that is your torque sequence...and that concludes your heavy resistance workout for today......and the next few days...

[@thefelixpinon]

hi this is the aluminum engine of the GM 2007 to 2013. ??????

[@zanderstoyvlog334]

What about 05 Ls 5.3 would it be the same?

[@munibnajib3068]

Is this the same for the LS3 engine and heads

[@TheWolverine-rm2kr]

Are you doing this on an aluminum head and aluminum block?

[@Doucettedon]

4:10 he’s saying 22, I’m reading 10 off the dial.

[@02ws63]

What about the mains

[@deankay4434]

A long string of robots install bearings, hydraulically press cam bearings in, install rings, then rod caps, head gaskets, photo confirmed, head installed, dry bolts installed and one machine tightens all in one shot. Everything to complete engine behind glass. The only techs wore with suits and loaded trays with parts, never touched by humans until ran on natural gas for 10 minutes at 2K RPM, stamped, yellow marker, sheet wire-tied to dip stick tube then last robot picks it up & places in plastic create to truck to the assembly plant. Even GM eSI points out "Dry" bolts for repair in the field. Been there, saw that! Both iron & Al. blocks identical. Oh yea, the heads came in fully assembled with valves. Retired ASE Master Tech / Contract labor for GM at the time.

[@luisdanielsanchezacosta6510]

Nice video, what lube did You use for the bolts?

[@johnsonbobo2376]

The bolts come pre lubed so to speak

[@Gio9288]

Is this the same for L76 heads?

[@2759sausage]

How show me how to do it whilst motor is in the car

[@jeremyeubanks2387]

When I put my arp head bolts in the instructions said to get your bigger bolts torque sequence done first then do the smaller upper bolts last .. is there a difference in the procedure from arp and oem?

[@buddyrebel_Garcia]

No I think it’s the same procedure I think he just did it wrong. You’re supposed to torque the small ones after you have taught one through 10 and then you torque the top ones to 22 lb

[@kkoch666]

Yup, the top bolts will loosen big time after torquing all the others.

[@daniellemus3142]

Cuestión. This is for 5.3 liter flex fuel. 2007 Silverado. Good morning

[@klassykaddy]

Now how do you get our valves in with the head on? 😂

[@deegan727]

Without the pistons in reach up through the cylinders with the valves of course. LOL.

[@mlez7197]

🤔 X2

[@rockroll9513]

@@deegan727 good luck getting the pistons in

[@deegan727]

Rock Roll Squeeze one ring at a time. All jokes of course.

[@abigmanbmx5214]

Lol

[@jackog187]

Is this the same torque sequence on a 5.3 truck engine

[@Wrensspeedshop]

Believe so if it runs the three different length bolts like the LS1.

[@myco_space_kc5558]

What's that tool called with the degrees on,it?

[@thomasrice2888]

Torque Angle guage

[@andrevasko9443]

is the first torque inch pounds or foot pounds.

[@Wrensspeedshop]

Big bolts are FT pounds (22ft lb, 90 degree, 90 degree, little bolts up top are also FT pounds (22).

[@nardojarrin1094]

how you going to install the valves ? lol

[@jimmyhunt9081]

Farted at 35°. Jk.. Great video

[@ricardososa1761]

Someone get this guy a impact

[@mrman880]

Don't trust em

[@richardplut142]

Does he realize that he does not have the valves and springs in it...

[@hawkofthenorth4829]

Did you waste good bolts for this video? I noticed you didn't have valves in the head so it had to come back off.

[@rayhorvath6249]

noticed that as well

[@tomaszszymczyk5246]

This ls engine you can install the valves through the spark plug holes

[@antmadrigal3821]

@@tomaszszymczyk5246 lmfao

[@alexb2471]

@@tomaszszymczyk5246 what??

[@robertkramarek6993]

This guy torque all bolts to 22 ftlbs including 8 mm bolts others say the 8'll bolts are last to torque 22ft lbs . Who's right ?

[@slicksloth_416]

The book says 8m bolts get torqued down last

[@kkoch666]

He's wrong. It must be his rings.

[@eduardourias3673]

How about the top bolts?

[@ericfitzpatrick5319]

They stay at 22ft. Lbs.

[@jakechimiak9626]

Summit day torque specs are 22ft pounds/90 degrees/50degrees not 70

[@rj7168]

Makes me anxious. Haha

[@unlimited408mike]

Where are ur valves

[@ericfitzpatrick5319]

So what's the actual ft. Lbs. When done?

[@johnsonbobo2376]

If you don't want to buy the angle meter I think you can buy arp head bolts and they'll give you the pattern and tork numbers for each pass

[@kkoch666]

Pound Feet

[@davidsharp922]

If the valve spring was there you couldn't use that angle thing.

[@MintMonte87ACSS312]

Yes you can. I’ve done them with the autozone torque angle guage on 4 different LS engines. Just gotta pay attention is all.

[@jasonhattrich3521]

So a 1/4 turn.

[@russelllamb4737]

He dont need modern tools, he needs some WHEATIES !!

All the grunts and groans yielding 11mm bolts

i thing you forget the valves lol

Probably just building a display engine

this is for any ls?

Cardio may need to be added into your weekly routine... and breathing treatments may be of interest as well.

[@vicente5776]

When are you going to put the valves and springs?

[@zyxwjim]

I was nervous watching

[@ZaksMuscleMotors]

Where are the valves lol

[@joshuahaviland8025]

I just did 22, 50, 70. Simple

[@MrKennyaa]

why hasn't anybody figured out the torqued spec on 90 degree turn, and 70 degree turn?

[@TheWolverine-rm2kr]

I know right!!!

[@davedave6663]

Because they're torque to yield bolts so there is no torque spec on it they stretch you cannot reuse the bolts

[@johnsonbobo2376]

Because 90 degrees is literally an L. You don't need an angle meter. Lol

[@buddyrebel_Garcia]

I believe factory says to torque the small ones last you’re gonna have to retort them once you do the other two steps, but I think you did it wrong but whatever it’s a five-year-old video so

[@TheLoneRanger745]

Couldn't you find the torque at 90 degrees , ? Why wouldn't every bolt be the same weather ... either 90 degrees or the said torque , Apple's ARE Apple's. I don't understand this method ,

[@kkoch666]

Bolt design and accuracy

[@Wrenchmonkey1]

Homeboy can't even read his own torque wrench. What he thinks is "22" is around 13lbs. I really hope he's not taking anybody's money for this level of work.

[@MrYukon04]

Book calls for 90 and then 50 not 70

[@danielgrande8939]

Ñ

[@manuelgonzalez704]

Would not let this guy work on my engine, i feel like he did this all wrong. Maybe its just me.

[@3badattitude]

It’s you. That just the way it’s done.
