    I'm presuming the block doesn't need machine work to clear the Jesel belt drive You mentioned in a previous vid. Which if so, is nice. Their older models intended for SBC & BBC applications did.

      Good idea, you could also do the same thing with just using the head gaskets. Just make sure you have the dowel pins installed on the block. Put your head gasket on check it for alignment then, transfer the dowel pins to the cylinder heads and place the head gasket on them and check alignment again.

    What's the part number for those cam bearings? I've never had to replace cam bearings in an LS before, but I hear all the time of people not aligning the bearings properly and wiping out the engine. That bearing design (which seems like how they should all be made) should eliminate any misalignment worries.

    Hey boss I have a technical question for you so no parts were available so I had to put an eagle ls1 crankshaft in to a 2017 youkon ls 6.0 I had the reluctor replaced at a shop
    That had the tool any it will
    Not run what I’m wondering is the crank gear did press on pretty hard onto the ls1 crank and I noticed that the new crank had 2 key ways instead of one and it take a different flywheel are the crank key ways in the same spot on both ls1 and ls4 cranks or is do they have different timing marks on the lower gear I used all the original timing parts on the 2017 except a ls1 crankshaft

    Not sure if you mentioned it or not, but did you also get the raised cam version of the block ? that would be KILLER. Anything to help the RPM and added valvetrain stability.

    • @JacobVillemain
      @JacobVillemain  9 місяців тому

      I did not! My stroke is only 3.75” so there is lots of clearance between the rods and the camshaft, but I didn’t think about the valvetrain stability with a shorter pushrod 🤔…. Next time
