i usually drill a hole in the rear seal cover after its aligned and torqued. a 5/16 dowel pin in two spots, drilled a few thousandths smaller, and tapped in. those long oil pan bolts and the two extra transmission housing bolts can pull that rear cover down and distort seal giving you a leak.

Good tip for cleaning your bores after honing. Is use ATF fluid ( auto trans oil ) and a clean rag. You will be surprised how clean it picks up all the grit and crap after honing. Also drill a 3/8" hole about 1-1/2" down from top of lifter trays on all lifters, side facing into valley side. Helps with oil drain back from lifters. KZbin it

[@Russell_and_Rosko]

SBC and BBC are amazing platforms. Only if the vehicle is really light, under 3000 lbs, or you need the efi/efficiency/convenience would you benefit from the change in platforms. If you build the motors and race them, sbc and bbc both have more aftermarket support than you can ask for and they have unlimited power potential.

[@Pyle81]

@@TyreFryer So ill assume with you're statement that you've never seen what a engine thats "Over filled" with oil can do??? Yes, you need to factor in the fact that you are adding 1 or 2 accessories (Turbo) and the amount of oil that it will take to fill the lines and the turbo housings. But just over filling the engine isn't a wise idea. And the next thing you need to be aware of, is how much oil flow the Turbos you are going to use require? Because you can damage them just as easy by to much pressure going to them as to little. And that brings us to where are you going to plumb the return lines from the turbo (s) back into the engine??? Remember this, The HOTTEST oil in the engine on a turbo equipped engine is the return oil from the turbo's. Why? Because of the size of the bearings, And how fast they spin with already hot gases being right next to those bearings, as they are SCREAMING at rpm's that you can't imagine. Then add in the fact that of you aren't using waste gates you're really adding a HUGE amount of added stress on Turbo (s) at those RPM's. We deal with 3 compounded (6) Turbos on a 18 liter Cat engine in our pulling truck. Keeping the Turbos cool (inside and out) is a science of its own. When you're making 9-K plus hp. And a few guys pushing 14-K.

So i got some pistons/rod/crank setup I had running in a block i had. I’m putting them in a different block I got but it’s needing a cam/main bearing job done to it due to a spun main. Do you recommend getting the crank rebalanced in the new block or just slap it in. It’s gonna be running the same crank/pistons but different block. I’ve heard alot of feedback but still indecisive.

Why would you need to get it rebalanced? The block shouldn’t have anything to do with it.

@@TyreFryer i figured since it was new block and it had the spun bearings it might need a rebalance, Im new to the motor building but I’m learning slowly.

@@mastermechanic1154 Did you have the crank reground as it had spun bearings?

About to buy a 06 TBSS. Wish I knew how to work on engines, or had the tools. Or the time. And the space

[@TyreFryer]

Space is the big thing tbh. Is it AWD or 2wd?
