I Installed My Own LS Rocker Arms And Pushrods

On todays video I will show you how I installed my stock factory LS pushrods and rocker arms on to my Lq9 6.0 after the SS2 cam swap, I really did not even check preload and pushrod length as this is a common swap and the only thing I changed was cam and springs, and the cam I am using really does not need a different pushrod length from what I seen online, if I changed block height or had my heads milled down or was using a super large cam or so on I would of checked pushrod length and preload as not doing so is asking for engine trouble.

The torque specs I found are 22-25 ft pounds for the rocker arms, double check before doing yours, I went to 25-on mine.
This really is not the proper way to install pushrods and rocker arms, I have did a few motors this way and all have been just fine, they are many ways to install pushrods and rocker arms so do your research, this is a video showing you how I did mine.

Can you do one for the 5.7 vortec. I suspect i have a broken or bent pushrod. Looking to replace it but want to do it right

[@TattsForLife]

I can make a video on that subject when I build my next 5.7 engine

[@briankinzer4175]

I put the wrong pushrods in and tried to crank it and it had no compression of I put the stock ones back in and do this and it doesn’t have compression what could be the issue? It has new lifters as well

[@saschan.6070]

Check the valves and valve seal. See if either of the two valves per cylinder kisses the top of your piston

Do I need to change my springs if I’m swapping to a ss2 cam ?

[@TattsForLife]

Yes 100%

[@kingchief8062]

What do the lifters do in making the engine run?

[@chriswelch4906]

They ride on the cam lobe utilizing a push rod, valve spring, and rocker arm to open and close intake and exhaust valves.

U cam watch a engine animated video shows how everything works together best wat to understand a mother from inside out basically a big air pump with flammable gas inside easiest way to think about it
