    I love the chilled nature of this channel, no 'shouty shout look at me' - just classy calm good humour, delivering superb entertainment and knowledge. Plus that Valvoline paint scheme is legendary. I hope it isn't rude to say, but the Castrol scheme was also on point. Rumour has it, that bolt is still not rusting.

    8:19 about how much money do you have invested in that cap & plug kit. That’s probably why someone doesn’t market them. There’s always that person who says they don’t need all of those pieces and ends up needing ALL OF THOSE PIECES. 😂

    I saw a lot of comments on the 'Dog bone' at the back of the block behind the rear cover might be the issue.
    Stock one is plastic, so may be loose in the oil gallery which is causing the low oil pressure.

    • @BennysCustomWorks

      Yeah you need to either pull the engine or trans to get to it anyway so I’ll get a billet one

      According to GM manuals anyways, however...they also list the 6.2 litre as 376 CI , but the 5.3 is stated as being 324 CI..so...I think they kinda fudge the numbers in this regard.
