Ls1 Engine Build Crank
LS1 Engine Build - My First Stroker
|
After wiping the used Plastigage from the bearings and crank journals using mineral spirits, the main bearings are coated with SAE 30 oil and the crank is laid back in place. This type of oil is used because it is very thick, so there's no worry of it leaking out of the bearing area--we'll be using this type of oil throughout the build. Just torque all the mains to the initial 15 lb-ft: we only need the sucker to spin here. And spin it should! (You'll note we've switched to ARP main studs just to make sure they would thread in OK; they did, meaning block thread cleaning won't be necessary). View Related Article
