I thank you guys for all the opportunity to work with you and for entrusting us with your projects. Sincerely Laz Mesa

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Thanks Laz! We can't thank you enough for getting this 6.0 ready for us to rebuild! You saved our butts on this one!

[@Siyadlams]

So many projects happening at the safe time. NICE!! It’s amazing how many moving parts are in the engine. Those Holley parts just changed the whole look of the engine. Your work is awesome guys. Good job.

[@SalvagetoSavage]

It made it look so much more modern! We're so happy with the new parts! Thanks for watching!

[@somedude0505]

Always love a good ls build!!!! Still the best engine to mod even after more than 20 years!!

[@bazilwreckerloughead]

I always wanted to wash the engine bay of my car, but I was worried about getting water in the engine. You guys showed me a fix for that; just take the engine out! THANKS GUYS!

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Lol, I know the feeling. But you’d be surprised how you can wash it down with it still in there. Just don’t drowned the intake

[@MrTimdtoolman1]

I like the way you updated the valve covers to resemble the original small block look that is period correct, nice touch Mikey.

[@SalvagetoSavage]

We really loved the old school look! Glad you're liking the build!

Awesome build!!! But it would be nice to see you guys do an actual budget build. Maybe do a challenge where you only have a low dollar amount to spend, then see how you guys choose to spend it. It would be great to see how someone with the skills you guys have spend that budget

[@SalvagetoSavage]

If our channel grows some more, or if we have more people buying merch we might be able to do that! We're still a working shop, so unless we're doing a SEMA project, what's happening in the shop has to go back out to a customer. We did just start our white C10 project, which is more of a budge fixer-upper!

The LS 6.0 364 is still a small block chevrolet and probably only slightly bigger than the engine this truck originally had

[@almostexotic9838]

Dang! Why wouldn’t you have just gone ahead and put new rings? Saved $100.

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Because there was no reason to. All of the rings looked fine and fit perfectly in spec. They won't do anything differently that new rings would do

[@JoeZelensky]

Would have loved to seen a 6.5T (IDI diesel for those that dont know) in this thing.

I get not wanting a old small block anymore. But that 6.0 with that intake in a lifted k10 with that cam doesn't seem like a good fit. Wouldn't the factory truck intake be better?

Did you check crank to bearing oil passage clearance or end play or do you feel you can skip that using OEM standard sized parts?

[@tonyvickers8659]

These truck have dual tanks. Did you replace both sending unit pumps and just show one? Or does this owner just use one tank?
