@merlepatterson proper doesn't matter if it runs 400,000 miles or better these engines were designed to be easily repaired/rebuilt in the field or otherwise although I have to agree proper tools and a shop makes things alot easier
Going through the prosses to measure the bearings themselves while not torqued down hurt unless if it was purely to check if it was stock what ever undersized bearings it was
Wish 12 valve engine shops were in the uk , all thats available are worn out motors with bosch rotary pumps hardly worth bothering with.4 bt motors almost non existent.
@@hotnuns69 I build my own engines, but I have never been in a 5.9. I wanted specifics so maybe we could get some idea of what people think is so unique and wonderful about them. Cause to me, it's just a small 6 cylinder industrial/commercial diesel.
I believe that man has built many many 12v by the way he’s working. Love to see that kind of confidence and professionalism. Nice work brotherman.
Saving to buy one of your long blocks for my 3rd Gen,
It would be nice to have a shop with all of those nice tools and equipment to rebuild my 12 valve, but I just have to work with what I have.
Thank for sharing that thought.
Many a 12v been rebuilt in the dirt

@@davidledford3522 Hence, my original point
What a great video , men that explanations was awesome
Was that even in 'real' time?
Nice!!!!
Is it normal for the oil holes in the main bearings to not line up with the oil holes in the block?

Fast paced video, not really informative
It was just showing the guy building it
@@hotnuns69 no information, just a quick visual
@@wtchr6883 I mean I would think you'd want to know the engine you buying was built by a professional
