So, today we are doing something a little different. We are doing an engine rebuild on a 2006 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 with a 4.8l V8 engine. The engine is burning oil and blowing smoke out of the tail pipe. With over 340,000 miles on this engine, it's time for a rebuild. So the customer wanted to take this opportunity to replace his tired old 4.8 with a 5.3. So we found one at a local salvage yard for a decent price. Now its time to dissasemble it and inspect it, so we can see what can and can't be salvaged. Follow along I i teach you several different methods used to measure engine for wear. Techniques include using a bore dial gauge to measure for cylinder taper, out of round and oversize. Stay alert for part 2 of this video in which we put everything back together. Thanks for watching!
