  • TURN THE DAMN AIR COMPRESSOR OFF

  • good job guys i understood it.

  • Is their a better how to video then this? They ran through this way too fast for me to understand what is going on...

  • this is cow manuer i cant do this

    

  • if i did this i would SO forget a piece

  • i would of kept the 350

  • 383cid 6.3L 6276cc

  • Why does stamping it on the bottom of rod ruin it?

  • @snake10566 It depends on the rod material and production process, However, stamping parts creates stress risers (a starting point for fractures) that can lead to failure. It seems unlikely, but it happens more often than one would expect - and not only on con-rods.

  • @dookiss4 Vizard has a few good points about these new blocks. 1: it has provisions for a hydraulic roller, save a bunch of money by just freshening up the stock lifters and dropping in a lumpier cam. 2: if it's an EFI engine it'll probably have decent bores, like 1 in 3 chance of just honing it up to "race" spec. Not that it would matter if you were doing a big budget stroker 383... but for a bum like me, the roller cam block I scored is a godsend. Heads + cam and basic rebuild = 450-500hp?

  • Hey! Guy's....Great video to watch....But, why wonld'nt you use an old block to do this motor....They say that the 1 piece rear seal 350's are know for cylinder scoring in mostly the 2 and 7 or the 1 and 8....I've taken 2 of these block's apart and have seen this first hand....So, I bought a Dart block but pretty much using the same kit you guys use the Eagle 383 stroker kit....Not knocking your video because I think it was a great video true hands on and I learned alot of new tricks....Thanks

  • its also important to stamp it on the the side of the rod that corresponds with the side of the engine the rod came from because alot of rods will have a little squirt hole that squirts lube on the cylinder wall.. and never use air tools for reassembly .. also be sure to remove your alignment dowels as well so they don't end up getting lost

  • @123456789918273645 Awesome kid!!! If you have any questions about the engine you could ask me.

  • that's funny MyNoah23 because im a 12 year old in i'm rebuilding a brigs 15.5 hp in my basement

  • @123456789918273645 thats pritty cool good to start young!!

  • Awesome engine rebuild videos!!! I am fourteen and love working on gasoline engines! I learned about small engines at first and now I'm getting into car engines. I am going to rebuild a 5 HP Tecumseh engine that my go-kart has which is going to be easy. I love Chevrolets and really want a 1970 Chevy Monte Carlo when I get my license in two years. I will probably rebuild a V8 engine for it!!! Thank y'all very much for the engine rebuild videos!!! I've learned so much already!!!

  • What crank are you using. I bought a 383 stroker motor someone else built and as soon as I romped on the pedal Snap went the crank. And I hear its a common problem.

  • thanks... dats too helpfull :)

  • lmao

    

  • this is true porn for real men

  • 383 is a 6.2

  • 6.0" rod length? not 6.0L displacement

  • The wires are in the motor,and the motor is in the wires. Thats the emgine brah.

  • Since it is a crappy GMC it needs upgrading,,, make it a Ford...

  • Remember align honing people is the better way as opposed to align boring honing self center wich does not make your timing chain loose. align boring just cuts exactly were it is meant too and in turn can cut closer to the block center line than you want it to.

  • Its cool but why put it back in a turb like that year of truck why not a chevelle or early Nova ?.

  • @dunn98632 cuz its the ultimate sleeper. Im a chevelle owner, and a muscle car like that everyone expects to go fast, especially with a big block like mine. but a rusty pick up truck? If a loud rusty gmc pulled up to you and revved its engine to race, would you expect to lose?

  • @speed150mph

    Oh I agree on the sleeper idea but not in that year of GMC all I have is trucks no cars currently . But mine are 79 and older rigs nothing over 80 but only a few exceptions would I buy over 80.. I just do not agree on the age of the vehicle not the style.

  • @dunn98632 THey are probably going to use the truck for heavy work.

  • good stuff !!!

  • new freeze plugs? wtf for? if they are properly sealed, why mess with them, new ones are hit and miss at best when it comes to sealing properly.

  • I know this is a stupid question and I will kick myself when I hear the answer, but why do you need to replace the freeze plugs when you rebuild it ?

  • @midgetmayo so u wont be back in it again

  • Such incompetance!... 383 is 6.3L... not 6.0 !!

  • don't you have anything more to remove there?! maybe you can melt the rest of it:)

  • Very good quality and informative video!!!! Thank you for the good info.

  • Newer GM engines use a fracture method on the rods so it is better to scibe these instead of using a punch. Good video.

  • @ItsMyMind101 will it blend?

  • it was cool to see this because my car also has 190K on it

  • a 383 is not a 6.0 liter

  • Comment removed

  • @dnwbomber youre right, its 6.27 to be exact.

  • @spenceronni7~ 6.28 to be exact!

  • @marek0086 actually 6.276244

  • @spenceronni7~ which is closer to 6.28 than 6.27.

  • @marek0086 you know i won. hehe.

  • @spenceronni7~ i redone the calculation.... 383ci is exactly 6.35

  • @dnwbomber Correct it is either a 6.2 or in some cases 6.3 but most 383's are 6.2

  • @dnwbomber Thats y i believe those guys r actors. Anyone who can rebuild an engine would not let 383 =6.0 go uncheck.

  • @dnwbomber yeah, its a 6.27 or if you round up 6.3

  • @dnwbomber it a 5

  • how does stamping the bottom of the rod make it bad compared to on the side, im tearing an engine apart to put in my s10 and noticed it was stamped on the bottom. does this mean i need to buy new connecting rods or no or what affect will it have on my engine

  • @willridesbikes I did it to my engine... naww it doesn't hurt it. its just to make sure if you take way to many pistons and not put the caps on, you don't lose them.

  • @willridesbikes it doesn't ruin them (unless you wack the shit out of it) if the rod gets reconditioned and rebanlance thats were they grind off the weight so you could lose your number.

  • How did the motor hold up, i notice its a 2 bolt main

  • Thanks for this, guys.

  • this is a great video guide! im rebuilding my '74 c10's 350 and this video set is a HUGE help!

    Thanks Guys!

  • love all these shit talkers with no video of them building anything.

  • good thing they didn't put it back together with the same crank and the same rods... using impact on those probably streched the hell out of them

  • @ACHEESEDANISH00 true ive always looked up the sequence to remove the heads and what not and backed them off an 8th turn at a time to keep from warping

  • thanks for your time and effort, you covered the basics. i've repaired cars for years but have never done a complete rebuild. found a good machine shop and am ready to reassemble, i wished you covered block prep a little more in detail, but thanks good info/ and good video.

  • Hey Im about to attempt my first major overhaul of a SB 350 and Im trying to do it all on a budget so does anybody have any suggestions on what brand or company I should purchase the kit from and also wheres a good place to get a quality crank shaft? If someone could give me a little feed back that would be great.

  • hey guys thank you this vid helped me do my rebuild good stuff!

  • hi can i know what is engine overhaul

  • @taiwanlong overhauling an engine is taking apart, inspecting, repairing, and rebuilding of an engin.

  • Don't like the way your rattling off those bolts. Have you guys ever heard of checking breakaway torque, particularly on head bolts? I've seen people rattling off bolts and snapping them &/or stripping threads, so you're not very professional. Also, a decent engine builder would always have a drip tray beneath the engine so fluid don't piss out all over the place, as it did with you. And your workshop's dirty too.

  • @MetaTechnology1 Hey whats your shop. I would like you to build my engine because you sound like a really great guy. Somebody good to know with a lot to back himself up. As I can see here. In your youtube post. WOW! WOWEE

  • @MetaTechnology1 Buddy, its a youtube video. Chill the fuck out.

  • @DrMMHMD 1500 engines in 27 yrs is nothing to brag about mate. I've built more over the last 5 yrs. Hell, I've lost count on how many engines I've built over the last 20 yrs.

  • @MetaTechnology1

    yah right, you build 300 engines a year, i am not talking about briggs and stratton, i build custom performance engines, not like these hillbillies.

  • @DrMMHMD you're slow, like retarded.

  • Why is it that american V8s make such crappy power and get such terrible fuel economy...

  • @MagicalMrSkylar 3 words, Environmental Protection Agency.

  • @rapidtransitsystem3 One word- Don't be gay.

  • @morbitron6 Look fruit loop, if you've built that many engines, why bitch about the epa...unless- you are fag who like to bitch. Shut the fuck up and change my oil.

  • @MagicalMrSkylar crappy power? for the money it costs for these engines it makes damn good power! if your comparing these big iron V8's to small European or itlaian V8s that make 2 times the power... DONT. These american engines are for your everyday daily driver affordable car or truck. they are not made to be performance machines from the factory like BMW or something else.

  • @MagicalMrSkylar ummm ur wrong

  • 383 cu inch is a little over 6.2 liters. A 350 bored .060 over is a 6.0 liter

  • @RightsAndPrivileges the car had a 305 tbi stock. it was weak, a reliable engine but hardly a performance engine. i picked up a 350 off of craigslist, installed new cam, lifters, timing chain, gaskets, and a good set of L89 heads. it runs good and i have less than 800 bucks into the engine. it has enough power to get out of its way and is plenty fun to drive. lots of torque

  • noticed it was a 2 bolt main, if you are building a 383 wouldnt a 4 bolt main be better?

  • @ad356 a 2 bolt is ok for a basic stroker, a 4 bolt would be a better idea if you plan on making 400+ horsepower

  • 383, that would go nice in my 1989 camaro. right now it has a 350 which performs well. with a 383 it would probably scream

  • @ad356 dont bother with a 383, but a 406 in it.

  • oh and it took less than two weeks.

  • Well I have a Ford Focus LE and one of the pistons twisted and popped. We rebuilt the engine and totally fixed the header, as that was the main problem and put in some better stuff, and put in a new filter ass well. Now we got it back in, fully build and all. Its smoking and stuff like crazy. that should eventually stop. But its also going crazy in nuetral, it heavily slows down and vibrates hard. and the spark plugs fall out eventually as well. Help me here?

  • thanks

  • I love how the guy looks angry and then happy at 0:21

  • Comment removed

  • @4:23 oh yea 

  • in order for it to be a 383 stroker it needs to be bored out .030 with the 3.75 crankshaft. if you just put in the longer stroke crank and not bore the cylinders out you only have a 376 cubic inch engine.

  • GM Performance parts has a 383 stroker crate engine out already for the 1996 to 1998 trucks.

  • I have a 1995 tahoe 350 engine, I watched your video and I would like for you guys to rebuild my engine the same way you did in the video, what do I need to do to contact you or for you too contact me? And for we can discuss prices?

  • Is it possible to convert a Chevy 350 from springed valves into a springless system (Desmodromic)?

  • I recently rebuilt my first engine and i have a question regarding a component. If you pause it at 4:16, on the rear end of the camshaft, is a gear. What does this gear drive, when i pulled out the thing it drives to remove the cam, i had no idea what it was. Also, why wont the engine turn over if the connecting rods and end caps are not kept together.

  • @americantractors Its a gear that drives the oil pump and the distributor.

  • are any of the LS engines overhead cam or are they pushrod operated?

  • @vinnie01 I'm sure they're all pushrod.

  • very nice

  • What is the name of the thing they mount the engine on that he can turn it over?

  • @f250camperspecial believe it or not it call engine mount it usually says its cap when u buy it.

  • make the machine shop take out the cam bearings.

  • why would you want to keep stock rods?

  • Just turn off the compressor.

    383 got some Torque.

  • How much does this all cost?

  • motor/engine.... who gives a s***! They taught us what we needed to know, and for those who were only interested in the grammar.......... grow up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Yeah I just tore my down, threw a new henderson rod in her and polished up all the wally joints. Ran into some trouble on the bubble thrusters, but I may just upgrade to a morris patter back.

  • how much would it cost to 383 an lt1

  • that engine is to dirty and rusty

  • Great video. I appreciate you guys sharing your knowledge with rookies like me. Why is the engine so dirty? Did the customer neglect oil changes or is it dirty because of engine design? I changed my drain pan gasket on my 99 honda with 300K. I did not notice any sludge in the pan. I did regualr 5k mobile 1 and honda filter changes

  • I love this video, Will always study this video to better understand the engine.

  • I love Your ASE Shirt...Ask Somebody Else

  • @k9forkids

    You obviously don't know what it means to be ASE certified.

  • @SomethinAmazinn Yes It means you get to work at Pep Boy's

  • @k9forkids Yes as a automotive technician. So what's your point here?

  • @gunmadkiller according to "modern science," drinking 1% milk on a tuesday while wearing boxer briefs is a carcinogen, too.

  • gotta love pushrods : )

  • arent 383's 6.3's?

  • i have a 1997 sierra 1500 witht he 5.7 vortec in it any1 know what type for fuek system it has, Carbed? TBI? or something eles and where can i get a rebuilt engine and for how much or how much would you charge to rebuild my motor??

  • @Dansz71sierra It has CPI typically known as Spider fuel injection

  • I have to admit if i need any work I would definitly give it to you. You act like you want my work not like some of the shade tree mechanicx that post on YouTube and act that they know it all

  • Good video

  • Lot of times a reman is cheaper,a reman 1988 to 1995 350 from Jasper is $1,200 and machine shops charge at least $1,500.00.GM performance parts does sell a 1996 and up 383 stroker crate engine.

  • It's not a motor! Motors are electric! It's an ENGINE!

  • @bcboy787 poe poe whe are saying diesel motor or benzene motor or electric motor know is that clearly? to know a electric motor or a engine

  • @akinorhan5 I'm sorry but that is incomprehensive to me.

  • @bcboy787

    mo·tor (mtr)

    n.1. Something, such as a machine or an engine, that produces or imparts motion.

    2. A device that converts any form of energy into mechanical energy, especially an internal-combustion engine or an arrangement of coils and magnets that converts electric current into mechanical power.

  • @purevisi

    1. I don't give a fuck what a dictionary says; I was told by a mechanic who rebuilds engines every single day for the past 20 years its an engine not a motor

    2. You're a douchebag for looking that up.

  • @bcboy787

    DMV = Division of Motor Vehicles.

  • @meandmyevo actually its department dipshit

  • @Killinemdead1 Actually, it isn't. It's division, I just checked. Also, don't be an asshole when you're wrong.

    Faggot

  • @meandmyevo it really is department look it up. i'm not having this argument.

  • @meandmyevo In North Carolina, Rhode Island, Delaware, West Virginia, New Hampshire, Alaska, and Utah it stands for Division of Motor Vehicles, and in every other estate it stands for Department of Motor Vehicles.

  • @Killinemdead1 Oh fuck it, every state seems hell-bent on being unique in it's department nomenclature. check out wikipedia, they have a full list of stupid names that the DMV gets called. "Kentucky Transportation Cabinet", India Bureau of Motor Vehicles" etc.

    You were wrong and so was I. You still shouldn't be such an asshole though.

  • @meandmyevo actually he is right its department of motor vehicles i should know i worked at en emissions center in arizona

  • @SuBN01z3RaT Like my previous comment said, different states call it different things. Up here it's called the Alaska Division of Motor Vehicles.

  • @meandmyevo you did not say that you called him a fag and that he was wrong you said nothing about it being called different things in different states and about the video it is not a 6 liter its a 6.2 or 6.3 depending on what way you round

  • @SuBN01z3RaT What the fuck are you babbeling about!?

  • @bcboy787 sir motor is any thing that rotate. ask yourself does a engine have any components that rotate? both is ok

  • @bcboy787 Lies! Why do we say motor sports?

  • @ryanp123456 Nope. I'm right. lol people are dumb.

  • @bcboy787 I'm telling you the definition of motor has nothing to do with electric, types of bacteria use motors to get around.

  • @ryanp123456 That doesn't matter at all. This, which is posted in the video, is an ENGINE. it doesn't matter what anything else is called or what you call it. That is the plain and simple truth.

  • @bcboy787 I'm not saying its not an engine, its the word I use too. All I'm saying is its not, not a motor.

  • @bcboy787 That is the dumbest thing i've ever read, "General Motors, Dept. of Motor vehicles..." I could go on forever.

    noun: a comparatively small and powerful engine, especially an internal-combustion engine in an automobile, motorboat, or the like.

    Dumbass.

  • @bcboy787 ya i hate when people call and Engine a motor. Like my old friend calls and Engine a motor and a motor an Engine its Fuckin annoying! LOL

  • @bcboy787 The dictionary disagrees with you...

  • @bcboy787 actully an engine runs on a track aka a train smart ass

  • @hudson493 No. You have no idea whatsoever of what you are talking about so i would just quit while you're ahead.

  • @bcboy787 or pneumatic or hydraulic

  • @bcboy787

    Really? So I guess BMW (Bavarian MOTOR works) only builds electric cars?

  • @bcboy787 pedant (ped'nt): A person who lays unnecessary stress on minor or trivial points of learning, displaying a scholarship lacking in judgement or sense of proportion.

  • @bddc201 lol, I dont care at all.

  • @bcboy787 you better call General Motors right away and let'em know.

  • @50percentFirebird Can you do that for me? That would be awesome if you could. Ive got a pretty tight schedule. Dont have time to be mocking people on youtube.

  • @bcboy787 Get ahold of FoMoCo (ford motor company) as well. They may be interested in this information you have.

  • @Feenyxxx95 Yeah. Thanks.

  • @bcboy787 WHO CARES SHUT THE FUCK UP

  • @113cross You seem to have anger issues. I dont appreciate people acting so immature over the internet. Please say it to me in person and see what happens =)

  • @bcboy787

    a Motor is an Engine, and Engine is a Motor. They both mean the same thing.

  • @ndogg360 Nah bcboy787 is right, a motor is electric (electric motor), an engine (internal combustion engine) is gas. There's no such thing as a gas motor, that would be an internal combustion engine.

  • @bcboy787 lmao

  • nice i know im going to get hated for this do u have any for videos i know its all the same besides the specs etc..

  • great videos, informative in all of them. thanks.

  • how much would u sell a motor like that for? and what year was that truck?

  • i had never rebuild an engine..but i want to learn so bad

    since my engine whent bad.i'm going to do it my self,but this vid would help me out alot..i really preciate ur information and shearing this video of u guys,gonzy

  • @gonzytunning b sure to read up on it too man becouz vids dont tell u everything

  • @bALLjUICE100 yea i know bro thanks for ur advise man
