Re: "Geronimo" 54' 3100 LS built in PA
7-30
Took engine out, started stripping it down for rebuild. Just a basic rering, bearing, gasket etc. This takes way longer than it looks. It will take hours to clean all the parts and prep for paint. Chasing all the threads, putting back together yadda yadda. My last build took me prolly 40hrs with tear down, rebuild, set up on start stand etc. I have like 5 broken exhaust bolts in this one. Go figure. way to go LS engine design! Seems like all these aluminum heads have bolts buried alive in them.
But.... I like knowing what has been done to the engine. I'll never put a used engine in a build if I can help it. Way too many variables that could go wrong.
