assembly manual/pdfs for LM7 build-up I bought a used LM7 block from a 1999 Avalanche truck (cast iron with alum. heads). The crank has been fixed, I need to put the engine together (long block). Basically, what I have is a $hitload of parts in laundry baskets. The previous guy disassembled the block. The engine spun the rod bearing. No damage to the piston walls. I built my SBC 383 for my 67 Camaro and have all the tools. The problem is the complexity of LM7 block and a few hundred different bolts I have, where they go and what torque to use to assemble the engine. I'd like to install it with a GMPP carb intake. I have the coil-over packs, sensors, LS6 cam, springs to upgrade the stock cam, engine mounts. The engine is destined for a 1969 El Camino.
Any tips on which book/manual to buy to assist me with this project? Do you have any scanned pages or PDF files that you share with me? I'd really appreciate it.
Regards,
Den

Should I just get a factory assembly manual for, say, a late 1990s Chevy truck to get a few engine rebuild chapters from there?
Does anyone maybe have one for sale?
Bump.
