Let me know what you thought of this video!
Have McFarland Machine shop do a dingleberry hone and hot tank on that motor
Then have McFarland fabrication make your exsoust lol
No brainer right there bring some Bartle Skeet
You mean * engine *
@@miatakhalifa time to get my popcorn and watch the show....
@@miatakhalifa no stop, go look up the definition of "motor" and "engine" so you can delete your comment
3/8 drive, 8mm. Just a friendly reminder to order one!
Sitting with you, Sandy, and Tuck while watching your video is fun
You should look into sending your heads off to Katech the have a great deal going on right now! Porting and valve job for I believe under 500
I love high mileage LS teardown videos... 99% of the time always ends with "Wow, this looks really good"... The other 1% is when we know its broken.
a21bravo my dude Ryan up in the comments lol! And that’s a true statement
Isn't it 100k miles ? That aint no high mileage lmao
Oh yeah dude. Nice job on the heat in the truck.
@@smallsT1G Thanks man.
@@imnota 100k,200k,300k, look the same most of the time.
40° is nice af in my mind, it’s -50° with the wind chill right now here in Minnesota 😂
Was just about to say -30 here in MI
right I'll take 40 over what tomorrow will be
But the good news about living in a place where it hurts to breathe is that you dont have to pull a rob dahm and use a flamethrower to kill the blackwidows that are in your car lol
jon reitinger that’s very true 😂
@@jonreitingerify never seen a black widow and I don't want to!
Not being negative. But again I've been to where you are at and pretty much at this point the only question I have is, why? I mean why not bust that pan off and take the crank out do bearings (about 100 dollars) and hone it. It will be good for 600 (know for sure). I've built many of these engines. Again I'm by no means trying to tell you what to do or insult. Just a friendly suggestion from a fellow gear head, brother.
He’s scared of racing tommy fyeah he’s hoping everyone will forget about it
i was thinking this from the beginning... instead of driving all over and dealing with shiesty parts. just rebuild/upgrade
I do agree. It would be better to just rebuild the engine. Even if if you re use the oem pistons, but with new rings and bearings. Just to make sure. Would be pretty fucked if you revisit the first ls miata drift video. Its been a while already so dont worry about time. We love the channel no matter what. You make great content and never dis agree. But this time a thougt i’d let you hear my opinion👍🏻.
He probably reads our comments and is like “let me know when your ls Miata is better than mine” lol
Workshop tip, Taylor: put your coffee mug on a block of wood... it'll stay hot for longer! Steel worktops suck the heat out of the mug. Works well here in snowy (at the moment), freezing Scotland!
I’d put in new lifters for a 100 bucks, and maybe cam bearings because your in this far, rod bearings is going down the rabbit hole but is probably a good idea to
I dont think cam bearings are necessary (if they are in good shape they are usually more of a pain to remove and replace than it would be worth) but the lifters most definitely because they are broken into that old cam.
Jared Anthony yea 100% new lifters, maybe some comp cams ones are a good idea
@@trifiiniti9357 comp, johnsons lifters have given cleetus mcfarland great perperformance with 1000 hp+, stock LS7 lifters are great for cheap stuff but theres still better.
N
Just new lifter
I'd go down the hole and do it right. a nice refresh for peace of mind. dig 2 ft now or dig 6 ft later.
Buy some impact extensions sockets and adaptors chromes are a no no for impacts
@@chdrev21 not suprised a snap on impact didnt break it try using a milwaukee on it and see what happens
Milwaukee would have more of a chance of breaking off sockets but it's not necessarily because the Milwaukee is stronger (Depending on the model of course). You have to keep in mind that they work slightly different, Milwaukee impacts have a lot more impacts per minute which wont allow the socket and or adapters to flex back before the next impact. This is also why you can't use torque sticks with many cordless electric impacts as well, They're not able to "give" at the proper torque rating and will over torque lug nuts.
Stopped watching Adams video to watch Taylor's 🙌
filthysoap96 same
Pea Nut I just can’t get into it anymore
No ad money in January for them so he’s doing a giveaway. 2x the cash. Cry about it. Remember ladies it’s their job not a hobby.
Stopped Watching Adams Videos...
Nothing but clickbait followed by more clickbait - he used to make ok videos now there all the same
Nathan Hall what exactly has he clickbaited so many times?
Definitely check your rings. 5.3 are notorious for the rings twisting so the gaps aligned and having a lot of blow by.
5:00 Yeah thats why you don't use chrome socket sets on impacts. Their strong but they can't handle the impact vibrations.
Why would you not replace the lifters when the new acdelco ls7 lifters are so cheap? Also lifter don't only fail at the roller. Lifter internal will also fail leaving you with a "flat" lifter that will not pump back up.
Just a thought
How about a collaboration with Cletus and do a engine build
@FDMtech who are you
You need a small wood stove for the shop for the “cold” weather.
he said he doesn't need one. believe he said it doesn't get cold often enough to justify the purchase or something like that.
RageAgainstTheToyMachine nothing a welder can’t handle
I think you should do new rod and crank bearings to have the piece of mind that they are brand new
Awesome video! I thought it was super cool seeing you refresh that block with your friends! And I see you took the advice and got yourself a coffee machine. Very nice my friend! Cheers from the polar vortex in Chicago, IL
Haha "Brace this north east weather 😂😂 That's classed as a good day over here in the UK 😂 and currently snowing
I'm glad the bottom end of the engine was pretty mint!! Also the deck clean up looks prime!!
We've had great luck cleaning decks with Scotchbrite pads and brake clean / simple green. Great progress so far! Lapping the valves isn't so bad, it is tedious though. We've got a quick how to video of that when we knocked it out as well! Cheers!
Man if you're down there already, I'd just rebuild the entire thing. The piston walls looked good but that doesn't mean everything below that, rings, bearing clearances, etc, are going to be good.
This is just my honest opinion, which you can do with what you'd like.
To me, knowing what the condition is, what is new, knowing bearing clearances, ring gaps is peace of mind. It is extra money but, again to me at least, it's worth it.
You're building a racecar at this point, so I'd get a machine shop to properly deck the heads/block surfaces so they're a matching fit.
Like I said, this is just my opinion, so its whatever. I enjoy your videos because you do things the "right" way, but I feel like you may be cutting some corners atm.
All good energy here tho, always subbed lol.
You inspired me to blow all my money on the same tool box as you at the age of 15 and I love it. It was so nice to have when we had to pull the motor out of my 1997 Chevy siverado
Taylor!! Just watch one of Cletus’s new videos on his junkyard engine build video for his red corvette. It’s easy as hell to do a budget build and refresh the bearings and a quick dingle ball hone. You won’t regret it! Get all that carbon from the pistons cand gunk cleaned out of the galleys to ensure proper oiling and combustion for maximum USDM Miata JDM skid chucking.
Bro. Its -21 degrees with a wind chill of -45 here in the Chicago area. I’m jealous of the rain and 40!!! Stay positive!!!
About the carbon on the pistons: i once pulled the head on an engine and it sat open for a week. When I came back to it I was able to remove the carbon just like you in the video. Some of it was already peeling of by itself. So it's just from humidity that got into the cylinders
Get an old head stud and grind grooves up the length of the bolt at 180degrees apart, use this to clean block threads any gunk comes out in to the grooves. Carbon on the pistons looks like oil burn probley valve stem clearances or stem seals, hold the valve at about lift height and waggle backwards forwards sideways and guess/judge if there needed, if these are needed, you will need to do these before valve cutting as there used to center valves, if the waggle in the valves dose not feel sloppy, judge the pitting in the valves faces, if pitting is only light use a drill on lapping.
The northwest gets cold and lots of rain and snow. Oh and you can get titanium pushrods if you wanna ride the hairy edge of redline, at 8,500 rpm.
We Northerners[Northwest Ontario, Canada] stay inside between November and April. Past 2 weeks have been consistently -35C to -42C without windchill.
Taylor, while the heads are off, grab a dremil tool and polish the intake and exhaust ports so the air can flow smoother. 15 mins of work will get you 10 extra horsepowers.
dont polish intake ports unless your direct injection dosent atomize the fuel right you can port but not polish
@@blownbudgethondas1086 why not polish?
The air needs to be turbulent.
If you think it’s gonna take 15 minutes you’re in for a bad time
Thank you for not doing a click bait face! I wish you good luck with the block
Love that you're playing Lakey Inspired in your videos, reminds me of when I first subscribed when you originally got the Miata!
40 degrees is still pretty damn cold especially when you add the rain here in Kansas we only get about a week to two weeks of Arctic weather and tonight it's supposed to get down to -4
Cold haha it’s -52 degrees with wind today. Now that’s cold. Love your channel. A21Bravo just mentioned you in his video
To clean the deck, I like to use one of those right angle die grinders with the Brillo pad thingys you can pick all of that up at harbor freight for like 30 bucks total
Sometime I wish your video never end .. Then it comes to an end, and i'm already waiting for the next one! Glad for you that the 'new' engine's fine !
You need some french drains for that yard outside the shop. Looks like it pools water pretty good there.
3 inches of snow and 15° here in the mountains of West Virginia beautiful weather.
When you were telling Ben to leave I was waiting for him to say "it's ma'am" and throw a fit
This upload schedule is great.
Two nights in a row I've jumped into bed and got the notification for some sweet content before I sleep.
im late but it was -30 degrees in fargo when you uploaded this talking about being cold. lol
Have you ever used a machine shop before? They are never in a hurry. NEVER! You'll get the heads back when they are good and ready lol.
For real. A highly respected shop in the dfw area had an engine of mine for almost 3 years.
Just a tip for filling coolant and oil passages when cleaning the deck and head, or really anything. Try shaving foam. It fills gaps perfectly and when your done you just suck it out with a vacuum.
when you spin it over push down on the pistons that are on their way down. it will make a pop sound and go down abit if it has a spun bearing
I love hearing its cold. It is -22 atm in Wisconsin.
Seattle wa. Highs of 50/45 and lows of 35 to 39. Havnt had much rain this winter
We've had 14 inches of snow in the last 3 days, and have a -30 windchill lol 40 sounds like paradise
Taylor I recommend pulling the pistons out, deglaze the cylinder walls and putting some new rings with better gap
usually when you have a failed head gasket allowing slow coolant leak into the cylinder its visible because it makes the piston really clean. The water you found was probably from pressure washing.
The 3M Roloc bristle discs are great for cleaning the block/heads/etc, and they won't damage the surface.
Whoop whoop home town shout out I’m from New England lol and I was just in my garage last night while watching you work on my ls m3
Always clean and Chase your threads.. especially in the block. A few minutes can save a lot of money and headaches.
-38°f wind chill here tonight.. 40 is t-shirt weather!
Why not spend an extra $500 and get new pistons and rods and dingleberry hone it? You could have so much more confidence in the engine.
yea id redo the rings maybe keep the same pistons
@@crip6ns I agree. I would at least do rings and a light hone.
NA why would you bother i would just do bearings...
@@SomervilleMetalWorks That's a given when you replace rods. You'd do bearings, rods, rings, and new pistons. They kinda get put in as a package. Bearings aren't going to help if the engine turns out to have bad compression.
@@gavinhelms8628 then you might aswell build the whole engine its pointless theres no broken rings bores are good you can do the bearings without pulling pistons or even the crank.
Stuff falling off impacts is the worst you can replace the locking rings on the end of the impact though
It's been cold too, here in the Northern Wisconsin/Minnesota. Wind chills near -60 F tomorrow
Heres #11 of cleaning a deck surface, try a 4 inch Norton stone next time (except probably not a good idea with the rotating assembly in).Thats what I did on my ls build currently in progress.
Never been this early! That's quite a thing to think about the fact i'm enjoying this before A LOT of people!
It was 7° in NY yesterday. It's fine if you have a heat in your garage.
Taylor. Bro it’s -8 degrees here. And I was in my garage working on my civic with out heat. I’ll tell you that was cold. Lol I wish I was in Florida rn. Keep it up bro
cool watching the breakdown and cleaning. Keeps me on my seat edge with these videos.
My wife's 05 suburban had pushrods that looked worse than that had some lifters that where junk and would collapse at times and it would rattle like crazy I went through the valve train and it's good to go
Weather report from northern Wisconsin... it hit a low of -32 degrees actual temp. Not to mention a little thing we call wind chill where it brought it down to around -50. At least we don’t have hurricanes 😂
Its -1 here in Michigan... 40 sounds pretty good right now.
It's so funny to see 42 degrees in florida, and he wears a winter coat and says it's freezing. It was -50 that day here in Iowa.
Dont move to the north. I live in North Dakota and today's high was -15 . With wind chill it feels like -47. Tomorrow is suppose to be a little colder -60 with windchill. So Taylor I say stay in the warm state and travel to see snow
if you want to clean stuff up use E85 instead of brake cleaner. its cheaper will breakdown the carbon and oils but you can wash it away with water
Talking about cold I live in northwest Ohio air temp tomorrow is supposed to be -17 and with windchill is going to be in the -40 range coldest day on record for I'm not sure how many years. Enjoy Florida man! Wish I lived somewhere warmer lol
You should try coming here, we have a -50 wind chill.
Here in northern Illinois it is like -24 actual temperature today. -50 windchill.
Go have a look at what cleatus used to clean his junkyard engine worked great
lol cold in florida, its about to be - 40 windchill here in indiana tomorrow
Why did i laugh to "i think its safe to say its not a beautiful day in florida" 😂😂
"things changed, plans changed" - every car build ever.
Trust me, you do not want to live somewhere where it is cold. It's -20 here in Minnesota right now with a wind chill of almost -50😂 it makes it hard to work on cars.
Hey its only single digits and snowing here in Harrisburg, PA. right now (9:40pm).
get some mopar combustion chamber cleaner, I've rebuilt a few engines and that stuff is bar none the best stuff I have used for caked on varnish and carbon.
While the motor is taken apart you should upgrade to the new stile nick sensors or put a thick bead of silicone around the rear knock sensor to prevent it from going bad
Please open up the bottom end to make sure the rod bearing are good, you just gotta wiggle the rods side to side to check if their spun
It's negative 22 before windchill right now where i am in the twin cities area in Minnesota lol
Why am I not get the notifications that a new video went up? This is the fourth time
It's a bug in the CZcams website, got this problem also on different channels...
cold in Florida?!?!?!
i know im here in -4f or -20c
That's cool.... Not to bad here just a low of -40 without the windchill
Ew throtl... I’m out ✌🏼
It gets cold here at the end of jan and last till feb mostly its mornings were Taylor is will see 30s at it lowest its a wet cold here and it go straight to your bones it sucks im from Chicago i know what cold is but it sucks ass when its cold here friend
@@garageworm17 West coast Canada clear and about +10c in the day and around 0c at night , the only place in Canada that has green grass 12 months of the year .
You left a paper towel in the intake runner! lol
Doesn't look too bad. Hopefully it stays solid
He talks about how cold it is, meanwhile I'm sitting here looking at the thermostat that says -25 lol
I'm surprised youtubers don't use the rolc bristle wheels....
Gonna be 20 to 30 degrees below zero the next two days here and I'm outside grilling. I'd happily trade climate with you.
Scotchbrite wheels on the die grinder for the cleaning
Next time try a Brillo pad and brake clean. Cleans the gasket of really nicely and won’t scratch at all
When its almost -30 windchill in Michigan. And i gotta do work to my truck.
Its - 15 in my town right now my guy. I envy your florida 40s.
I'm in Massachusetts its a whooping -6 right now
Since you have it disassembled that far I would just do new bearings and rings With a Dingell Barry HONNEand it would be like a fresh motor
Its 40 degrees and raining... here in MInnesota its -50 degrees..
it's -55 Fahrenheit with windchill where i live rn taylor
pro tip for dealing with rain, from a washingtonian: it's just water. don't worry about it
Had a high of single digits yesterday with gusts of 70mph... Please tell me again how cold that rain is lol
There is a high temperature of -13 tomorrow where I am in Wisconsin.
Just to make you feel better.
Taylor Ray it's -55 degrees here in Wisconsin with wind chill.
Wisconsin Woop!!!!
During the winter I would like to live In Florida. But I live in NY w the best summer weather possible.
