Ls1 Engine Build Rod Cap Removal
LS1 Engine Build - My First Stroker
|
Time for a helpful tip. Rod bolts, even lightly tightened, will set the rod halves together firmly; they can't just be pulled apart by hand. To get the rod cap off, loosen both rod bolts a couple of threads, remove your wrench driver, and tap lightly on your extension with a small (preferably rubber) hammer. Alternate between the two bolts to help remove the cap evenly. Also, when the bottom half of the rod is loose, flip the motor over and remove the rod bolts and bottom half of the rod; leaving the rod bolts in until you flip the engine over holds the rod cap loosely in place and ensures that the piston/rod won't come flying out of the cylinder accidentally.
