Engine Building Video - Piston Removal - Chevy V8 Small Block

hey i got a 6.5 diesel. and one piston blew and scratched the cylinder pretty good do i have 2 remove every piston 2 get it bored. thanks

is it possible to rplace ah spun bearing without having to pull the piston

im working on a datsun 280z and the engine has been siting open on a stand for 10 years and i got to the point to remove the pistons but they are seized and i cant move the crank shaft so i removed it and was only able to get 2 pistons out we put penetrating oil in to let them move and i cant get them out can you please help me this is also a school project and the teacher has no more ideas i did use your on the video

since your engine is a line four and you were able to remove the crank already, how about supporting the block on the ground and trying to beat the pisons down into the block and pull them from the oil pan side of the block instead of from the cylinder head side...?

You will completely destroy the pistons and the block will need to be bored for sure, but you may get them out by trying to beat them out backwards since you've got the crank out of the way...

thank you i will try that

fantastic video chaps i can fix my car now all the best

Does the DVD(s) show how to properly use a plastigage, other tools such as dial guages and show how piston rings are positioned and gapped?

Yes the DVD shows the entire plastigauge process for the crank main journals and rod journals as well as ring gap filing and positions during piston install.

The machine shop section shows the machinists using the dial bore gauge and other instruments. We don't cover the use of a dial indicator specifically in the 'Basic Engine Building' DVD as it is part of an "advanced" engine builders tool set.
The 'BEB' DVD will absolutely guide anyone through a complete rebuild using a base tool kit...

well i bought a Holley carb and it came with a BoxWrench video..... its so easy to
understand and learn...
im gonna buy the basic engine rebuilt, the TH-350 AT and the rear axel videos....
with boxwrench its easy to learn...

yes!! electrical engines give 100% all the time......instead mechanical raice to 100% depending on the RPM
but still, for now mechanical are better...
