A lot of people out there don't know how to properly bolt the timing cover on. Start at the top like you did. They tend to leak between the bottom of the cylinder head and the top of the timing cover if not done this way. Really liked your video. Bummer your doing the work outside, I've been there.
My wife drove a 80 280ZX when she was in HS. To this day, that was one of the fastest cars (on the top end) that I've ever driven. For tires, you may want to consider a 295/50R15 on the back, and 215/65R15 on the front. The height of those two tires are identical, but because the fronts are much skinnier, you shouldn't have any scrubbing issues when turning. Love those cars.
so, I’m running 12” on back with 295/50/r15 .. and 10” up front with 245/60/r15 .. both of those tires are 26.6” tall .. you did see that I bought the fake rocket bunny wide body kit?
Your killing it Chris!!! Im learning alot about these L-Series motors watching your videos!! Motor is looking brand new!!! What do you do for work? I heard you mention you go on call?
One thing that always confused me about finding TDC is how to tell the difference between a combustion stroke and exhaust stroke. Both have cylinder one at the top. If the head is on you can tell by the valve positions. But what if the head is off? Does the keyway on the crank still remain facing up?
rotate the engine and you watch the intake valve open…and then once it closes watch for the balancer mark come to zero… it will only do that on the compression stroke
🤔THAT engine was burning oil real bad make sure you board ALL cylinder sleeves ALL valve guides and valve seals and all cylinder rings also ALL Main and rod bearings & timing chain ALSO timing cam gear & timing guide

Great video. No bs just got to the point. Thanks mate.

Transformation looking wild.i gotta get those wheels
As always, great video! I appreciate your time and knowledge.
Love it! I think I have the same or similar thread chaser kit. It’s been an amazing tool to have!
Great job Chris. Thanks.
Really good video. Engine looks legit.
You’re fine taking the cam towers off. You just don’t want to mix them up

Yeah we all want to know the chris craft back story.
Your cat always makes a cameo appearance. Is that coincidence or on purpose?!😂
the cats always play around me where ever I go.. they are inside and outside pets but they only go outside when I do
Where can I buy that tool you used to compress the valve springs?
Looks like the pistons were zero deck?

Hey, that’s not a 6.0LS!!? Also be sure to leave room for the turbo
no.. I do have a 6.0 / 4L80e swap but that is going in something else
was I wrong to ask for your help on my monte? I left a comment and it got removed.
no it didnt.. it’s on another video.. I don’t work on peoples cars.. I have a full time job and I don’t even have time to work on my own stuff..
