On this episode of American Detour, we get ourselves a new project truck! The first, "upgrade," is simple enough, we have to change out the starter. The truck is a 1989 Chevy Silverado C1500, with a 305 (5.0L) small block Chevy. We've had to rebuild this motor after it blew a headgasket, and aslo replaced the piston rings in cylinder number 2.

    Use the metal sleeve and rod for oil pump it's super cheap insurance, then plastic sleeves break all the time and you loose your oil pressure you already know the work involved to fix it especially inside the truck 😂 the fact you used a broken plastic sleeve and just glued it to fix it is crazy not gonna lie 😂😂 hopefully it holds up for you

    If you do a swap with the pistons, extreme caution is needed to make sure the specs/tolerances match. My brother-in-law did an engine rebuild with his pickup truck Chevy 350 engine with swapping out parts between two used engines. After everything was cobbled together and engine placed in the truck, he discovered when driving the pickup that it consumed a quart of oil every 200 miles; all the result of piston/cylinder specs not matching up.

    yea depression and all thanks great, what was the crack about Joe Biden? because he didn't do something? or did something? don't play with politics at all it pisses people off. the orange monkey didn't do ANYTHING at all! and we got locked down for three years. if he had followed what the last administration left for him, we would have had a much easier time of it. but that's the orange asshole doing things his way. yea don't do politics it pisses people off!
