Thoroughly taking apart the heads and 6.2 litre lt1 from a corvette sting ray grand sport and getting a engine part list ready for order to build this engine up better and stronger than it was. I hope you enjoy this diy do it yourself walk through tutorial on disassembling the corvette c7 engine and getting it ready for the machine shop and rebuild.

Awesome video
Great video
Interesting, will you do a build reassembly video?
Yes i will :) building the motor in the next couple weeks here
@@ghostlyrich Great, I'm in the same train! Hope to see your video before I do mine. There's not much info on LT1. No books, no videos. Just the service manual
Im suppose to get it back this week so i can assemble on the weekend! Cheers and have fun :)
I love your helper.
Great video sir, what's the part # for the spring tool 🔧
Very good video
why bother with a engine stand if your doing everything on the wood? head bolts are to be removed in a specific order not just across the bottom then the inside. this keeps the head from warping. same pattern as when you torque them down. also theres proper valve spring tool made for the lt motor.
Built the stand mainly for reassembly thought it would be handy to rotate for disassembly but it wasnt. Heads were fine and fully inspected and cleaned up at machine shop, all good.
Exactly 🤷
@ghostlyrich I'm a mechanic for a living . The correct head bolt sequence to loosen head bolts is the exact opposite of the tightening sequence. Like will you warp a head ? Possibly , probably not but it's just a risk I don't wanna take 👀.
@writeupking i havent warped one yet but as you said doesnt mean it isnt possible so i appreciate the advice
Great video!!!!
This is the same engine in my 17' SS Camaro 6spd. I have 68k miles on mine now and have using mostly Mobil 1 oil. What type of oil were you using? Does that grove in the lifter seem normal?
Could be from anything including foriegn matter from assembling engine
43:55 The doG be thinking ...WTF?😂
Whats your view on this engine regarding durability and hold up to running it hard but also while keeping clean oil in it. How many miles can be expected from it?
I'm a c7 lt1 vette owner . They are chill under N/A power levels . They do have paper mache glass pistons that hate moderate boost . Until you replace at minimum the pistons you don't want to exceed 600 wheel horse power . I just picked up a A&A supercharger so hoping running around at 600 or a little under doesn't shatter my ring lands and force me to replace or build engine 💀. Currently making 482 wheel on e85 , long tune headers , and ported intake . This N/A power level is safe .
hey, quick question, i got a 2016 corvette stingray, and im planning to replace the lifters, the parts i bought were 8 ROLLER lifters, and 8 AFM lifters, do you know where does the AFM lifters goes? or is it all 16 roller lifters
Are you going to delete the cylinder deactivation?? Allot of people when then the lifters fail will end up doing a cam swap to get a bit more hp and delete the afm (cylinder deactivation) if your planning on keeping it i would inspect your old lifters for ware and if you see any, definitely take the time to inspect the cam through the valley tray to make sure the lobes aren’t worn out. The AFM lifters have a small little bead like point on the side of the lifter which is so it will collapse in cylinder deactivation mode so when you pull out the old lifters, just match the buckets up with the corresponding lifters and slide them back into the same holes as you swap them if not, go by where the Solinoids would sit. I will be deleting the AFM lifters and going with an upgraded cam and deleting the solenoids as AFM can cause a lot of issues, including lifter failure and torque converter, torque tube, and transmission damage
Where is the cam located in the engine? Time stamp if you have it on this video.
Also, tbh I already bought the AFM 8x lifters, and 8 OEM lifters, if I just do all 16 roller lifters (no Afm) will I need to replace anything else?
@@fixnplug2645 yes you would want to get a afm delete kit. I will have a video up this weekend of reassembling this motor, to do lifter is a big job, what has you doing the lifter?
Cam shaft sits right under the lighters in the center of the block
Great Vid
Nice vedio ❤
How many LT1 builds have you done?
Never break head bolts wirh an impact gun. Always break by hand first, then finish zipping out with impact. You can destroy the threads doing this.
Are you mixing your valvetrain parts? Service manual says to reinstall them in their initial position unless you discard them for this build?
Absolutely all new valve train parts, and all new rotational assembly
Which kit do you buy? I can't find any shop willing to sell valvetrain/cam combo to me or at least none of them read their mail inbox..
@@CorvetteCarCraft its hard because the wait times are long i ordered mine from davenport motorsports in calgary
@ghostlyrich word, I was wondering why you weren't storing rockers and pushrods in their respective postion on tear down . If replacing all , then heck ya check em in a bag !
What side its bank 1 driver side or passanger ? Thank you
Driver's side
How many miles were on it and was anything wrong with it?
30,000 kms, rebuilt for boost
Whats that lifter holder made of? Looks like plastic.
Yes a plastic like material. Same as hemi and other pushrod motors
@@ghostlyrich Why are the putting them in the plastic holders now instead just dropping them in the hole in the block?
The holders keep them in postion and alligned
@@ghostlyrich COOL
Why the heck are my headbolts hex head vs regular bolt
Because someone at gm doesn’t like us it’s a 13mm I’m pretty sure there should only be one hex bolt

Sounds like he knows what he's doing. Yet he doesn't. This is NOT how you disassemble one of these.
Reassembled just fine lol 😆 😂 disassembled allot of engines in my time but eveyone has there own tricks
Mabe you might want someone to build this for you just looks like you lack knowledge good luck and God bless you
I built it and it works fantastic.
@@ghostlyrich that's great 👍
