Me: Starts Video “Since Steves a little Bitch “ 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍🏽 that’s hilarious. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to sending my future car to yall soon.
Yes as we mention in this video all LT1 & LT4 this ZL1 is a manual and doesn’t have cylinder cut either ... but lifters are still in there as you can see
I'd love to know the build date of that ZL1! ZL1's built during 2017 have had a rash of oil pump failures, and I'm betting that block of wood was from the GM tech that had to replace it or R&R the motor.
saleen313 lmao my exact thoughts!!!! Its like two motor homes together lol but i mean the man drives a 7 second drag car im assuming he can drive :p hahaha
Do you guy have any iusse with the ls7 lifters buddy has had two come apart in the motor losing the inner clip that holds them together just wondering if you ran into that kind of iusse
Question: i just got a 1LE with a LT1. What oil do you guys recommend? Right now just basic bolt ons mainly a spirited commuter car, is Amsoil or Royal Purple overkill?
They just found out the the lifter trays are the cause of cam and lifter failure because the lifter trays become weak and the lifter turns in the motor and destroys the lifter and the cam lobes So never ever reuse lifter trays. Not worth the risks of failure from a cheap part.
No E85 pumps really up here in MA, NH, and ME. One or two as far as I know in MA but absolutely zero here in NH. You want E you're buying buy the drum unfortunately. Sucks!
I like that Fran doesn't leave horsepower on the table. I'm looking forward to sending my Camaro to you guys putting a Whipple on it, tightening things up, and heading to the drag strip
Lol Matt always getting the cars that have been f..ked up but a least there in good hands when he gets them that shop rules team work makes the dream work ...what happened to Frans vette man .that Shelby was moving 7 .19 yikes.. Fran would have beat it thoe 😁😎😎😎
sometimes I think I'd love to do this kind of work until I see all the crap you have to remove. fuck it, I'll stick to fixing windows and working on bikes on the side.
It's hard to believe this is a 5 man operation. Y'all crank out so much work. Good shit fellas.
SnooperGnar I believe they have a long list of cars on the waiting list but that’s so true it’s hard to believe matt and Eric crank these cars out
Quality > quantity
@@RaceProvenMotorsports Yet y'all crank them out in no time.
SnooperGnar They have it down pack and they work is incredible super clean. My car won’t be touched by another shop ever again
Top tier work for sure. Also they're not working on old junkers. A great shop for sure.
I wish my boss was as cool as Fran. But I don't want to be the "Steve" LOL
Some very good info from Eric about tensioners if you paid attention.
Thanks guys.
Larry Newberry I was on the fence on saving the old tensioner. Not going to after seeing this.
@@devendavidoff
I wouldn't either. That was some great info from Eric
The "Home Depot" mod is something you don't see very often.
Super-rare mod, Makes it feel like your car has a some kind of Solid/Stock motor mount hybrid :p
🤣🤣
Tell Eric to stop sneezing and spreading his corona virus to the whole shop! 😂
Eric! Thanks for explanation! Do more! I have the ls2 dampner on my ls3. Now I know why it was recommended!
Steve tell Bill he looks like general Zod from Superman 2 from the 80s
14:23 LS1 didn’t have any chain guide. What changed so the later motors needed a chain guide?
Fran, you do bad ass work, and you know how to find horsepower on the laptop. Love your show bro🤘👍💪🏻
nice!!! love the shop videos. keep them coming
What blue protection film is that on the orang zo6. Been trying to find something like that.

The intro had me.. Lol 😆
Actually good info on the chain tensioner. Learned something new!
great info as always. After swithing to the ls2 guide. what is used as a tensioner. Or is the ls2 guide all thats needed
what about the stock tensioner in the LT engines. Should it be replaced with the LS2 style
Me: Starts Video
“Since Steves a little Bitch “ 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍🏽 that’s hilarious. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to sending my future car to yall soon.
Me too !!!!!
23:27 Jeez that thing left like a rocket.
Do the LT1 with the manual TR6060 have the AFM lifters. Wondering since I dont have any cylinder cut on highway
Yes as we mention in this video all LT1 & LT4 this ZL1 is a manual and doesn’t have cylinder cut either ... but lifters are still in there as you can see
You look like a kid again "i wish I felt like one" i felt that
I'd love to know the build date of that ZL1! ZL1's built during 2017 have had a rash of oil pump failures, and I'm betting that block of wood was from the GM tech that had to replace it or R&R the motor.
Lost the oil pump in my 17' ZL1. Seized the motor at Watkins Glen!
Jesus man the size of that trailer is unreal!
Everytime i see them driving the RV while pulling that trailer i wonder how the F do they turn and maneuver that damn combo
saleen313 lmao my exact thoughts!!!! Its like two motor homes together lol but i mean the man drives a 7 second drag car im assuming he can drive :p hahaha
That's Chevy's new organic engine stabilizer. It keeps the engine from rocking under heavy loads.
Do you guy have any iusse with the ls7 lifters buddy has had two come apart in the motor losing the inner clip that holds them together just wondering if you ran into that kind of iusse
Never once. My guess is his cam lobes are too aggressive
You'd be amazed at the stuff I have found after dealership work lol it never fails to amaze me!
Question: i just got a 1LE with a LT1. What oil do you guys recommend? Right now just basic bolt ons mainly a spirited commuter car, is Amsoil or Royal Purple overkill?
Use amsoil trust and believe lol if you protect your engine from the beginning it'll last a Looooong time
All LT4 have AFM lifters? I have the A10 but I don't see anything on the dash saying v8 to v4 like I did on my SS I had.
Doesn’t switch to 4cyl mode but still has the lifters.
@@RaceProvenMotorsports Thanks. Can't wait to hear and see the numbers on that White ZL1. Would love to send my Z up to your guys.
Damn damn damn Fran was about to give that mustang the business
My dream car!! With the colors i want!!
White with black!!!
Exacly like this one!!!
The wheels on that zl1 are nice. Car looks tough in white with them.
So the heads on their own picked up 50? Are they ported and milled? I want some!
57*
Heads and tune yes. And both milled and ported
Are you ever going to race the 4th gen again
My yard guy is also my mechanic special right there.
What y'all thinks better kongs or jokerz porting power ?
We use kong on all of our builds
Jesus, give Steve a pay raise immediately. He does such a great job. Take it for granted until he’s gone.
Edited for spelling.
I wish your shop was a franchise like MAVlS
in every state so I could easily get to you to work on my GTO. LS shops are far and few in between in NYC.
You realize we are 2 hours from NYC right?
Is it true that the Kong 2650 is the same specs as the lt5 zr1 blower?
they both share a 2650 rotor pack that is about the only similarity, saying they are the same "spec" is false.
@@RaceProvenMotorsports gotcha. Thanks for clearing that up 💯
That's the new 2byformance mod! It's harder than poly, but not as hard as delrin. LOL
Why did you shut it down on that last run? Break? Spin?
ua-cam.com/video/ewOJHXbRkjI/v-deo.html
it wouldn’t have been such a good race
Speaking of chevelle’s. What ever happened to the one you guys picked up?
White car and black interior=Oreo.
Joe's shade tree mechanic
I think those lifters are what cause the majority of issues
They just found out the the lifter trays are the cause of cam and lifter failure because the lifter trays become weak and the lifter turns in the motor and destroys the lifter and the cam lobes
So never ever reuse lifter trays. Not worth the risks of failure from a cheap part.
Might want to bleep out when dude says "gutted the cats"

Every LS an LT motor you have to remove the heads to change the lifters.
Yes but not the old Lt
iroc Twan
Yeah the lt1 is just a small block Chevy
He’s saying if you are just doing a cam , you don’t have to remove the heads on an ls. Lt unfortunately you do
Wesley Beeson
If you are only replacing the cam and not the lifters you do not have to remove the heads.
Loved the intro lol
Damn. I live in mass and hope to see those running around
Husspower enthusiast same here. Would be nice to know what shop put that lumbah in there too. So we can stay the hell away from them!
@@artagain8977 damn straight kid. Maybe those fuckin cawk suckahs at quirk or suttin like that guy.
@@artagain8977 let's grabba cawwfee kid
“Steve’s a little bitch” 😂😭
I liked the longer video!
Give her the STRANGER 🤣 (Corvette)/ somebody done been up in DAR (Camaro)
So people just send you random stuff?
You’ll be surprised where people take their shot to get worked on
I love it my guys rpm keep up the work and love video 💯💯💯💯
Also it is still true that whoever beats Fran at World Cup ends up winning Street Fighter.
Yes he did
Lol Matt always getting the cars that have been f..ked up but a least there in good hands when he gets them that shop rules team work makes the dream work ...what happened to Frans vette man .that Shelby was moving 7 .19 yikes.. Fran would have beat it thoe 😁😎😎😎

They said build a race car, put a small block in it...
Joe M and it runs 7’s... what does your big block run? 🙄🙄
Jeremy Leftwich wood block
Not a GM car, but a stock block 4.6 4v mustang with ford gt stock head's, stock 03/04 cobra crank, runs 5s.😉
Hey Fran look at all the $$$$ you saved without Steve
Such a weird comment. As if Steve hasn't done (or is doing) anything for the shop. Who do you think edited this video?
Is kp alive? Must have missed something
Her and Fran have a baby on the way.
told you it was a bad TUNE.
Someday......
That's why LT stuff is A.......................
Wetter the better ....lol
