I enjoy watching techs like you who know their stuff and maintain a well organized area. Well done.
I'd be sure to replace the timing chain, remaining guids and the oil pump. Just some simple insurance for the future. Very clean job, and great video. Can't wait for the next video!
Very professional, knowlegeable and clean. NO POWER TOOLS! You are awesome Bro. God bless you. Kenny from Brooklyn. I wish I lived in Texas!
Great video and still relevant 4 years later as Chevy kept on using the AFM type systems
Nice job presenting the video. I appreciate your explanation on what you are doing and why without bad language.
Good shit bro! Every time I watch you’re videos working on you’re Vehicles I get pumped to work on mine lol
Executed very well. Nice and organized. Your halfway there GT. Finally broke in the shop.
Thanks for taking your time and showing all the steps and explaining your process, great video.
Your presenting, annunciations and instructions are very clear, good job dude!
With power tools you cant get that same feeling when something's stuck or braking off. Kind of shocked the manifold bolts came right out
All that dust makes me think Texas AZ NM no salt.
they put this same engine in the buick rainier. The manifold bolts were the hardest part of this. very bad angle, no room and two were already broken off before I started. These videos in full size trucks make the job look so much easier, lol
Dam im have that problem right now father got me the engine I needed for my truck an when I got home I noticed bolts broken in the exhaust manifold in the heads on both side at thr fat end by the wall I was like WTF POPS now I got to take them a shop to removed the bolts an got the heads worthless now
Nice & clean engine tear down. On point. 👍
Subbed. Nice work. Haven't checked your videos yet but hopefully more LS type stuff coming. 🤙
Great job cuz. Awesome videos. Keep it up. 👍🏼
very informative.that part is almost donebon my 88 chevy 454 dulley.Gracias😜.learning as i go.
Great video, very informative, can't wait for the next video 👍
I'm liking the new font in the beginning of the video. That tear down was amazing.
Your making it look easy.
Thanks for taking the time to film and edit this!!👌💪👌
I know this is already 4 years old, but I wanted to tell you and everyone else what sets this video apart.
In most cases, you let us get a good look at the fasteners once they're removed. Some of us have had our engines apart for a couple of years, and need a little refresher course on which bolts go where. Thanks.
I really like your well explained videos. Question, when taking the rockers off, were you following a pattern and did I see you untighten each one a little bit and then go back and finish untightening them?
Great job on info and step by step.
Thank you. Best explanation I have seen!
Hey bro just subscribed to your channel
I’m a technician from SA
like the music you play during your montage vids
I learned a lot watching this. Thank you for sharing
Love the part where ya dropped the wrench! Lol felt your pain. Great job!
Thanks for this bro, my truck is making a weird racketing noise followed by chirping and I think it might be a broken pushrod.
Thanks...this is same problem I have in mine...u r pretty good at explaining..
😊
Looks like a lot of work I’m not sure I have time do to this with my 07 6.0, I was quoted with a lifter 7 failure 7200 worst case scenario once he gets all the way in. Now I’m driving a 2021🥶
Very nice work learned a lot thanks
Wow what a great video. Thanks for sharing.
Really appreciate the break down, something I will have to do in the future!
If its your first time, it might look intimidating tearing into your engine like this, but 2nd time around you'll be a pro. These engines are easy to work on.
@@GTsPerformance I got an 05 PPV tahoe with the famous 5.3 " lifter tick ". Seeing this video made me feel more confident in doing the job on my own now.
Great video. Did you change parts for any good reason? I've done this job on Asian cars and it seems like trucks are way easier. I'm curious if you could've done the head gasket job and stopped, right? I think you did extra stuff to upgrade things, right? Man this looks less stressful than a small prius engine where you have to remove everything
Thanks so much I was wondering how the lifter worked and the difference
Awesome video! Really detailed..... Hey what's the rough price of this kit you're using for the install please? Thanks!
Thanks for the Great video. It helps to see it done before I do it .
Yea, I'm a visual learner myself. The job might look intimidating, but it's much simpler. 👍
Aye bro when ever u install heads you don’t gotta check clearance right on the heads after you take them machine shop ??
I see now how I can take off the heads Now thanks for the videos its a freaking big help !
Would you happen to know the torque specs for reassembly? Great video by the way!
If your swapping out the heads do you recommend removing the pushrods first?
excellent work and views now I see whats ahead of me on 2008 #4 is stuck and stays sticking
so this guy here wants to replace one lifter might as well do one side. now that I see whats up hes already there
Guess if they are ok no need but double work does not appeal to me. replace the ones that tend to collapse with other type to delete from happening now to find performance box to undo 4 and make 8 constantly..
great job in explaining things.
Clean work!
Great vid...😎 👍 👊
Great video man!!!! Thank you!!!
4:12 is what always happens when I work on my Tahoe fml lol
Do you know why cylinder #6 look like this? Was there any oil going inside the cylinder?
I have caprice ppv 6.0 and cylinder #6 misfiring with white smoke from the exhaust and oily spark plug I did a compression test and all cylinders above 150 Psi, there is no lifters knocking sound and by using mini camera cylinder #6 in my car looks exactly like the one in your engine.
Could it be bad lifter? Even if there is no knocking sound?
Did you have to purge the Freon to take out the AC condenser and radiator to remove the cam ?
Great video thank you 🙏🏽
quick question do you have to remove the head bolts in sequence like you did ???
Great Video, Much needed, Thanks!!
Glad it was helpful!
@GTsPerformance very Helpful, your the Man, wishing you many blessings
Great vid man
Thanks 😎
Nice vid. Thanks.
Thank you for the video
Thia video is great the only thing that would make it better would be if you told us what size the bolts youre taking off ended up being saves us from having to spend more time looking for the right socket or grabbing the wrong one and stripping a bolt cause you used one that fits but was not quite the right size
so do you have to have it top dead center before pulling the heads off?? anyone know?
Will a impact generate enough force for the head bolts dont think im strong enough
What is the part called on the drivers side head on the back part of it? The black arm looking thing
Hi. God bless you. What is the warranty for this lifters
How do you get the manifolds away from the cylinder head bolts?
You have a part 3 to this. Wanted to see the final install and the first start of engine to your fix
Yea, it's in my "ppv Tahoe " playlist
th-cam.com/play/PLDBTR9jvD3R2BZpZ68CPVV97AjBeZrObg.html
After part 2 is installing valves and springs on the heads, then next is the first start and tuning..
Good job good vid🤙👍👍👍
Thank you
Good shit my boi
I've never seen such a clean valley pan cover tbh
My 08 silverado had so much oil all over its cover glad I re did everything tho
GREAT VIDEO!!!!!! Quick question I gotta take my heads off mine, do I have to take off the water pump and all that stuff to take them off?
If it's just the heads, then you don't have to remove the water pump.. but if you're trying to remove the camshaft, then yes
I hope someone can help me with my question, but I want to remove the heads on my 6.0 and from what I hear, I have to make sure that cylinder one is all the way up to start removing rocker arms and heads. Is this true? I want to remove heads on my car so I I can swap out the lifter by myself.
What is the torque specs and sequence for the VOLM
Es todo viejonon
Excelente amigo gracias tengo que aser lo a mi camioneta
Great video, I think I'll do this myself instead of taking it in, all thanks to this video!
To do the DOD delete, is a new cam required, or can you just replace the lifters and call it good?
Also, are the oil valley plugs required? If there's no oil passage in standard lifters, it seems like the oil will be blocked anyway...unless it will cause excessive pressure? Lastly, does the computer shut off fuel flow when it goes from a V8 to V4? If so, it seems like a DOD delete may need some software modifications too.
Maybe avoiding the delete and just replacing the stock lifters is the best option for someone like me not trying to get fancy with it.
Thanks in advance for the help.
I was going to do a delete but instead im currently just doing a top end rebuild and timing chain. You do need software and the dealer wont do it. Also a new cam is required when doing a delete. It really isnt necessary if you look at how many miles you get out of afm lifters.
It comes out around the same to do the delete with aftermarket cam, or go with original afm lifters and expect them to fail again at another 180k.
You definitely don't need a dealer! If your lifters ain't broke yet.. someone with a computer and a tuning software can disable afm.
It's not actually tuning your truck,.. more of a toggle on/off switch. I think its $80 and it'll save your afm lifters.
Aren’t you supposed to put all the push rods back where they were originally?
I seriously need your help!! I need the same job done on my 2005 caddillac escalade.😞
😂
Where can i find part 1 ? I have to do this exact thing to my 13 tahoe and this will be a big help and guide!
th-cam.com/video/8Ns5ly6wZIQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Vr0rovYC1xdbZg-k
Hope it helps 👍
No broken exhaust bolts? Nobody is that lucky! Good job.
😁 Haha, surprised myself also
Right 😱
Where did you buy the kit?
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Good technicians
made it look really easy..looking forward to the conclusion vid
Would a 5.3 v8 vortec in a 2005 Chevrolet Silverado crew cab short bed 1500 LS that have the calash hydraulic roller lifters or just All regular lifters
The 05 didn't come with the collapsible lifters, so you'll have all regular hydraulic roller lifters. GM started adding the "displacement on demand" (DOD) lifters on the 07+ engines
Where are yuo ? I need a job like this.
how lucky, your exhaust manifold bolts weren't all broken
Some power tools would make your job so much faster and easier on you specially if your on flat rate
What's the name the little line on side heads
How did you get you exhaust manafold on the passanger side to drop like that and have that much clearance?
Just remove the driver manifold and it will move
0:52 they all have the boxing 🥊 bell 🔔 sound each and every time accidentally hit the water pump with a tool. Anyone noticed that?🧐
Yes haha, makes me feel like I'm in a new round with my truck
Quedé clarito con los comentarios 👍
Hey what's the kit from Texas speed and performance you used
I used a stage 2 .550 low lift with 212/218 duration.. and I think it was 112lsa, not certain on that
my truck needs that repair, can you do it for me?
What part of Texas
Very informative video looking to trouble shoot a ticking when I press the accelerator not so audible when on lower speeds have a p219a code dealer said it was the injectors any thoughts
Was it injectors or lifters?
@@20tea it was the injectors I changed all 8 but I was driving around with a p0300 for about a year and mess up the catalytic . I cleaned all 4 sensors and still p0420
The converter in bank 1, driver side cat, may be partially plugged. May have loose material in there that on occasion that may prevent proper flow. You should either get a new cat or just run without them. May notice hesitation at higher speeds.
@@20tea I took it for a hard run just now for a good hour . Getting the rpms up high. And when i came back to go home the check engine was gone let’s see for how long . This literally just happened tonight . Last time I had the p0420,p0300 p050 p0219 code I took the truck for a long drive did 75 aggressive driving and the 420,219 was gone
thanks
Is it possible to replace just one side? Because my stuck lifter was in cylinder 1 (driver side). I'm wondering why the manifold wont drop low enough to get the head bolts behind it. I know you replaced both sides but can this be done on just one side? And if so, how do I drop it low enough to get to the head bolts without damaging it?
Remove the head bolts under the manifold, then the manifold bolts. The reason the manifolds isn't going down lower is because the driver and passenger are connected as a Y. If you can't get the space, try removing the bolts on the passenger side manifold so the whole exhaust can lower all together.
And yes, it is possible to replace only the broken lifter. After everything is all put together, I recommend having someone with a tuning software Disable the DOD system so your lifters only function as regular lifters, and not go into 4 cyl. mode.. since that is when they fail.
@@GTsPerformance Ok. And should I use a jack or a support of some sort underneath the manifold to to prevent it from dropping to the ground? I'd assume doing this would make it easier to lift back in place.
@@StanOnDemand Yes, use support or exhaust will be dangling from o2 harness. Don't ask how I know.
Love how easy Chevy trucks are to work on. What year is it?
This is a 2007
Quick question can I just replace the lifters or do I have to replace cam and everything?
You may get by, but the lifters may eat into the cam lobes. If you already installed it and it's good, you may be fine. If you still notice issues, then you may also want a new cam.
What did you stick inside the crank bolt to remove that harmonic balancer with that tool
For real I’m at a work stoppage trying to get my harmonic balancer out. It looks like the Chrysler 3 arm puller.
Yes, I used Chrysler puller, and a long hex bit socket
When I take off heads….. I always think they are heavier than they are too…
What engine number is this, do you know ? Like i.e. l33 and do you have stock heads or is it modded
i think the engine block is an LMG 5.3l with 799 heads
Would a collapse lifter damage the camshaft?
It all depends on if you drive it for a very long time or if you get lucky an the lifter is stuck up instead of down it’s always good to check the cam to see if there is any damage
How did you get the exhaust manifold out of the way, can't get the last bolt in on the head.
Bolts at the bottom won't budge with a 400lb impact wrench
I didn't take the manifold out. The key is just to loosen both sides after you removed the head bolts FIRST!
First things to remove are the coil packs, plugs & wires, valve covers, rocker trunion guide & pushrods, then the head bolts.
(If you loosen both manifolds first, they will hang and wont give you clearance to to bottom head bolts)
So are you implying that you can simply delete the dod lifters and just use standard lifters? If so I’m totally doing that. Save myself the worry of the collapsable lifters failing again.

Hi, do you have to remove timing belt too, to pull the cylinder head? Thanks
