Kyle, you’re probably not going to see this, but if you’re still wanting to keep a stock bottom end setup in this Ls literally go to autozone, and tell them you need a “crankshaft rebuild kit” for whatever year truck that motor came out of. I have a stock bottom end 5.3 in my camaro, it made 950 at the tire on a remanned autozone crank. You get a stock crank that is turned and polished, and all the matching main and rod bearings. I think it’s about $350 last one I bought. I believe all other main auto parts stores offer remanned cranks as well.
@@davidreynolds731 idk what pick n pull you’re going to, but Ls’s around me aren’t that cheap anymore lol. Plus you run the risk of the same issue over again. I would definitely suggest checking the cam bearings first before he goes and spends any money on this engine, but if everything else checks out, the crank kits easy and cheap.
My pick n pull still charges about 400 for complete LS's, after the comment section showed me it doesn't go for that everywhere I might have a new side hustle lol.
problem is guys like cleetus have 10 projects on the go and never finish and somehow buy another project in the midst of those projects , starting to get annoying tbh.
Put stock engine back in the dodge. Have a second backup hauler/trailer puller. Content would be cool but really that's a decent truck. Should get it back up and going and useful!
For real.... you are gonna put all that shit in the trash anyway. I love it when someone throws a shitbox 4.8 LS in, throw 30lbs of boost at it, and have a REALLY hard time blowing it up.
Might as well do a full build on that 5.3 shortblock. Put an aftermarket rotating assembly in it. Get that block hot tanked, line honed, decked and have new cam bearings installed.
Should just build the engine that's in the Cummins to make good power, maybe a big single or compound turbos. Then when Wyatt gets his dmax done you guys could hit up some events together with the diesels that'd be sick man 🤘
I love the content and i love that you mix it up a lil. Dont give up on the LS kick. They are everywhere and so are parts. 500+hp from a turboed stock 5.3
As soon as I saw how dark the oilpan is,I knew the motor had been hot enough to score the bearings.'Caleb Michael'has a great post.He suggests a crank kit.You 2 can clean the block and hone the cylinders.Rebuild the heads with stronger springs after you port them.This is how you'll learn to build one.You did your 4 cylinders by needing to,and now you have this block.
That's a benefit of the LS. You can rebuild the bottom end very cheap. I like how you have the box trailer blocking the side of carport. Closes it in nicely.
You could always do a 3rd gen built 5.7 Hemi with a turbo or supercharger. 5.7's are actually able to be built reliably nowadays, Texas Speed even has aftermarket parts for Hemi's.
You should get a complete rotating system from summit racing. They have a budget pro LS parts. You get a balanced crank rods pistons rings and bearings. I think that it would be perfect for you and it's not that expensive.
Really thankful for Kyle going in depth. Seems like if I were to I’d be jawing off, but he and everyone else have come so far. Its amazing. Thank you for not diluting content. PFI speed and BoostedBoys. 🚌
@@kurtlamprecht93 what is so hard to understand about "no. No it wouldn't." If you gotta look any of those up you got bigger issues My friend....

But you chose to be an uncultured swine instead
I’m in the same boat, just got engine #4 off the pallet from Jegs. The first 3 junkyard engines lost oil pressure when they warmed up. I highly recommend machine shop work or a crate engine if you dont want any problems with it.
Side note, use a harmonic balancer installer tool when its going back on, if you use a hammer to install it you will kill the thrust bearings. Also with a tool you wont need to heat up the balancer either
This channel needs a 4bt or 12v Cummins in one of Kyles cars too! Wyatt’s need to be featured for a freedom week where you both spend 5 videos working on his he’s earned it
Good ole cathedral port iron block lm7... Have one in my Volvo.. Summit stage 2 236/238 .600 lift, pac 1219 springs, btr pushrods and trunion kit, some rebuilt 706 heads, a trailblazer SS intake, with 92mm tb, "1 7/8 headers with 3" ss black widow exhaust.

Have you ever thought about letting Wyatt rip one of these cars down the track? It woukd be a great bonus and way of showing how much you appreciate him.
Wyatt doesn't make it out of the staging lanes without blowing up plus he looks like he likes to party at the tracks and events lmao. I believe his race truck will be the fastest truck on the channel if they complete it right now.
@@zethloveless7238 I realize that but he is also neck deep in building cars that create better content for the channel. If they can drop that truck at JH’s shop, forget about it for a few months and pick it up good as new for a reasonable price why not. At least thats what I would do. Slap it on marketplace and send it as a fresh runner. I love K swaps but come on….thats just pushing it imo….
16:10 I'm actually excited about it. Yes, there are hundreds of LS swapped 240's out there but I've never actually watched one being built. Let 'er rip! 👍
I just did my first LS swap because I came across an L67 6.0 aluminum block with rectangle port heads. Pretty cool to find in a pickup truck! Now my bmw does burnouts like it is it's only job!
Good idea on paper, horrid idea in practice. I wouldn't put lifts up on loose gravel and or dirt. Maybe some of yall would but i wouldn't sleep at night knowing one would likely fall over and destroy 6 cars in the process lol
Kyle your probably not going to see this but the cummins could just have injector or possibly ficm issues, when they stick open it sounds like bottom end knock on diesels from flooding the cylinder
It wouldn’t make nearly the same torque. It isn’t about horsepower bro. 656 torque compared to almost 1000. It’s a no brainer for me. Truck isn’t made for a gas engine.
Actually, Junk is still junk - no matter the manufacturer - also smaller displacement engines are always more vulnerable to the power expansion via boost as any engine The N/A power produced compared with the P/A boost is the cause for the greater wear, damage, etc. - especially with 'stock' type engines compared with purpose built racing engines like for F1, Indy, NASCAR, NHRA/IHARA/PDRA, etc. -> and they are also extremely vulnerable due to their designed use is near the limits. Honda, Toyota, Chevy, Cadillac, Ferrari, Porsche, Peugeot, Mitsubishi, Mazda, Mopar/Dodge, Ford, Hyundai, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Nissan, Subaru, etc. each have their racing engines, drive trains, components too. Among the smaller, 4 cylinder, public, commercial version engines, the Japanese, especially Honda and Toyota have developed the best reputation for durability, reliability - which they extended, expanded into their 6 & 8 cylinder engines too - and became their base into the racing engines. However, these boosted H, J, K, G, etc. engines engines clearly show their vulnerabilities within durability, reliability - as per the Boostedboiz, PFI Speed, and others - few manage to last through a Drag&Drive event, especially, more so RMRW. Sincerely
LS swap 240 is relatable, I don't have anything front wheel drive anymore. But I do have a 03 5.3 that got hot a time or two, but ran great. Also have a gen 4 5.3 with a ticky lifters I got to drive before it was pulled. Sorry about your luck on this one, usually it takes a little luck, and you will have a ripper
This makes me so happy :) I’m a huge ls fan and actually am finally starting my shitbox ls build ;) it’s getting boost my first experience on doing most the stuff myself and my buddies. It was a truck destin for the scrapyard so we will give her a proper send off no other way then to turbo it haha 😂 plan on using the motor for mock up of it does let go tho
@@daniesalex7073 yes yes I do met him a few times now and this makes me happy because there huge k series guys so cleeter finally brainwashed them into the la side
wanna let u know... i sent a lq4 with much worse crank issues with the autozone bearing kit. damn thing lasted months of the casual rev limiter cold starts till the #3 rod decided to make a window. was a blast tho, and in my area the lq4 are cheaper, usually under 400 complete and its a weekend project once ya get a holley term x and remember ur wiring. cant wait to see that thing rip.
I know it probably sounds different in person than on camera but my truck made same/similar noise and turned out to be a cracked flexplate. Worth a look.
268 views and just dropped a minute ago, you go kyle. you've come so far and im happy to be a part of the journey! if your ever in arcadia let me know!
Before replacing the engine on the cummins spend the time and few hundred bucks and get the injectors tested. Diesels with bad injectors sometimes sound like gnarly rod knock.
Can grab the 33lb flex fuels from an l59 and a walbro 255 and make 500hp for around $1000.. 500hp prob too low for you guys but makes for a fun st car. Mines in a 240 as well just a Volvo 240 lol.
Dude, I think you have a directional mic on your camera, it picks you up loud and clear when you're pointing the camera at something (mic pic up facing backwards) but when you point it at yourself, you go super quiet! You need an omni-directional mic for what you're doing, and your style of filming, not a super directional one like you're using atm if you're gonna constantly be flipping the camera back and forth in direction. ;)
As an Aussie when I hear "LS" I automatically think 5.7L as we didn't get the 5.3L. we got the 5.7 and 6L here in our Holden's. Until watching cleetus I didn't realize they got smaller than 5.7, I suppose the 5.3 would rev nicely!! Ive had a 5.7 myself in a VY SS commodore, was fantastic on the highway. I preferred my turbo 4's and rotors though.
Stick to Honda swaps. That's why I come here. I can watch a boring old ls swap anywhere. Maybe a sign? Keep up the excellent work though. Your channel is an inspiration.
If your going to add wall an a door to the new shed could you put in that extra 4ft piece?? Would get another 2 cars in there an then build another one close to the back door just for the truck or your daily have the pad cleared then can practice burnouts an drifting and bee open for when needing to load up cars an parts just need a forklift too
Bet this will be the beginning of a lot of ls builds in the future when you see how easy they are to build eventually …currently building a .065 over Ly6, forged internals big cam , rings gapped for boost. Easy high revving 600 whp na build pretty much an iron ls3 tbh . Ordered pro charger will be slapping that on soon when I get time. Should be pushing around 800hp (low boost around 8 psi) in my 4th gen Camaro auto cross/roll race build.
The Porsche should be number 1. It’s a mean machine, just change the oil it will always be reliable. Porsche are rock solid build quality also protect the paint with a high quality professional ceramic coating
You guys should just go head and get a good stock crank and built the bottom end of the ls with a good set of turbo rods, pistons, rings, cam and high volume melling oil pump that way the engine is already good for boost when you get ready to boost it especially while it's already tore down.
A machine shop that works with LS’s can tell you if it’s a 5.3 or a 4.8 just by the crank if you really want to know if it’s a 5.3 or 4.8 see if they can check your stock crank out
Good thing about the old Cummins you can rebuild the engine without removing it out the truck. That's the best thing to do and they are very simple to rebuild
If one K isn't going to be enough to pull the dodge, just put a second one in the bed of the truck. With a cage above the bed to hold a radiator and a spare wheel like some race trucks. Would be sick if you ask me.
I had an 04 rsx type s in 06. Still pretty new tech then. I went 3 2. Money shifted it. Those transmissions are butter. Triple synchro in 1st and 2nd which is why it was able to go into 2nd I guess. I slapped the shifter down but the leather shift knob rotated and I felt it go into 2nd instead of 4th. So I clutched back in as soon as I let off the clutch. She screamed so loud haha. But it was fine. I was super shocked it didn't scatter right there on the highway. Got her back into gear and still won the race haha

Check the rocker assembly on that cummins. I'm certified cummins technician. And it's normal for the rocker to loosen up on the 6.7.
Man Kyle I actually love the fact yall have been stepping out of your comfort zone. First the 13b and now a ls.

Tavarish Cough cough Tavarish.
Make a brace / hanger for the turbo and it will stop the manifold cracking :)
I vote a secondary tow rig for the Cummins. Just replace the motor with another of the same and just keep it on deck
Super excited to see ya guys build an LS. Especially with ol Cleeter down the road. I'd ask for James when you go in...

Minty like a can of Altoids 😂
Drain the oil and fill it up with 90 weight, it'll run another 300,000 miles.

Cam bearings have been a big problem in the LS engines,especially the third bearing from the front of the engine.
@@waylonmurphy5772 It needs a crank already. So why not upgrade? You can get good package deals on rotating assemblies.

Yo im actually early, love the videos btw man keep up the great work. Been watching for a while :)
I hope the trans is solid mounted too after solid mounting the engine
Put 2x k's in the cummins, 1 for the front wheels, 1 for the rear.
If your going to add wall an a door to the new shed could you put in that extra 4ft piece?? Would get another 2 cars in there an then build another one close to the back door just for the truck or your daily have the pad cleared then can practice burnouts an drifting and bee open for when needing to load up cars an parts just need a forklift too
Bet this will be the beginning of a lot of ls builds in the future when you see how easy they are to build eventually …currently building a .065 over Ly6, forged internals big cam , rings gapped for boost. Easy high revving 600 whp na build pretty much an iron ls3 tbh . Ordered pro charger will be slapping that on soon when I get time. Should be pushing around 800hp (low boost around 8 psi) in my 4th gen Camaro auto cross/roll race build.
The Porsche should be number 1. It’s a mean machine, just change the oil it will always be reliable. Porsche are rock solid build quality also protect the paint with a high quality professional ceramic coating
You guys should just go head and get a good stock crank and built the bottom end of the ls with a good set of turbo rods, pistons, rings, cam and high volume melling oil pump that way the engine is already good for boost when you get ready to boost it especially while it's already tore down.
A machine shop that works with LS’s can tell you if it’s a 5.3 or a 4.8 just by the crank if you really want to know if it’s a 5.3 or 4.8 see if they can check your stock crank out
Hard to believe they're not putting a K series in the 240. Touge factory sell a very nice bolt in kit including sump and oil pump/pickup
Nice to change things up
From factory not enought juice turn the 240side ways an Ls can do it easily with and with out bolst
Taylor Ray probably is on contact list. Ran 5.3 in the Miata for years.
The k-swapped truck would be so sick!
He said it best. Dont look at the cam bearings. I do it on every cam. Ha ha. I have said that for years.
Me watching y’all take apart this LS looks like me taking apart Hondas
Good thing about the old Cummins you can rebuild the engine without removing it out the truck. That's the best thing to do and they are very simple to rebuild
Wow wow wow. You guys need to just use a lil map gas torch to pull the crank pulley. You just ate the front seal.
If one K isn't going to be enough to pull the dodge, just put a second one in the bed of the truck. With a cage above the bed to hold a radiator and a spare wheel like some race trucks. Would be sick if you ask me.
Twin K's in the cummins? 1 for each axle? Would be crazy and cool. XD
How about a mid-engine LS install in the 240? That would be unique!
I had an 04 rsx type s in 06. Still pretty new tech then. I went 3 2. Money shifted it. Those transmissions are butter. Triple synchro in 1st and 2nd which is why it was able to go into 2nd I guess. I slapped the shifter down but the leather shift knob rotated and I felt it go into 2nd instead of 4th. So I clutched back in as soon as I let off the clutch. She screamed so loud haha. But it was fine. I was super shocked it didn't scatter right there on the highway. Got her back into gear and still won the race haha
@@kurtlamprecht93 I was relating to him 2 3 2ing the hatch that he talks about in the vid. That better? Make sense now mr moderator? Can you sleep better? Feel better now that you've tried to make someone feel stupid? You got some attention. Yaye you!
Add 2 sections when you close the new port in and you will be all good Kyle.
Can't believe the O2 sensor on the hatch reads correctly being so close to exhaust exit.
I wouldn’t close the sides off on the carport but I would definitely put on a couple layers to keep the rain and sun fully off of them
