- 1. Cleaned the block thoroughly with a mild detergent (dawn dish detergent)
2. Check main bearing clearances with plastigauge
3. Torque main caps down to spec
tools used:
MEL-MPE-900BR-GP - Melling Freeze Plugs (summit racing)
Plastigauge (O'Reilly's auto parts)
MOR-61820 - Moroso Engine Cleaning Brush Sets (summit racing)
Torque Wrench (kobalt and Brownline
I'm liking this, I've got a 2004 Silverado with a 5.3 I'd like to swap in a L92 6.2 with a Truck Norris cam and beehive valve springs for a start and then go for some long tube headers and 3" true dual exhaust. I'm thinking these 6.2's are common in Denali's and fairly low cost so I can do a budget build as I go along.
I smile everytime I start the engine. It is a blast to drive. The sound of the engine is awesome!!
Let me know if you have any questions

Whats the purpose of drilling that center hole? is it bc you switched to arp studs?
yes, the arp studs apply a greater clamping force to the main caps which also affects the clearance. without the proper clearance poor oil pressure would be experienced and premature failure
let me know if you have any other questions

My ls is carbureted how can i run a 4l80 transmission instead of my 400th ?
get a tcu
Did you have to get any machine work done for the 4 inch crank to work? I'm working on an lr4 and wanting to put in a 4 inch crank but need to know if I need machine work done first
I didn't need to have the block clearance for the crankshaft.
Let me know if you have any other questions
How Much was it to bore the cylinders?
I'm not sure on the price just bore the cylinders
I had other work done
Cam bearings
Deck the block
Bore cylinders
Clean front cover, rear cover and oil pan
$550

What wiring harness did you use? Also what transmission?
I using a wiring harness from psi conversion
I'm running a 4L60e transmission
Let me know if you have any other questions
A 4l60e can handle a 383? Or did you have it rebuilt? Are you running boost?
Aluminum or cast iron?
Is is a cast iron block
Let me know if you have any other questions

Bro I have no sound, what's up
The sounds is working
@@Slicpartna OK Bro must be on my end. Thanks
What’s up brother
Whatz happening doc
@@Slicpartna
After all this I installed a 2000 stall converter in my truck it was running fine but it didn’t have the power that I was looking for! I changed it to a 3200 stall and now it seems like it’s stuck in third gear reverse works fine
@@originalman8497 have you gotten it on the highway to see if it goes into torque converter lockup at highway speeds
@@Slicpartna
it’s stuck in 3rd gear and the RPMs are high! I was thinking it might be the new stall converter but, it drives and reverse works well!
