LT5 Assembly Project
 

Was wondering if anyone would be interested in me posting pics as I take apart and reassemble my LT5 Spare engine?

With that, I will pose my first question, before I tear into the shortblock, any other gaskets, etc that I should not mess with due to availability, etc? My intention is to pull the pan, and timing cover, etc. check things out to see if there are any surprises.

I will probably also need to replalce a liner, etc

Pete,

What am I looking at cost wise.....are these like the head bolts or a normal gasket kit?

I started making gaskets a few months ago, primarily because of cost. After getting into the project, I found out improvement in materials, design & specifications was needed. I have all the gaskets & seals you need except for the front cover. I'm now working on that drawing for manufacturing within the next 30 days or so. My product & price list is on the parts for sale section.

You can email me at A26B@aol.com for a quote or order.

I would love to see pics of the entire process, especially the removing and replacing the heads and timing the camshafts.

You can be sure that I will download and save every one of them for future reference.
