2nd stage of the rebuild
I have a 96 lt1 short block.
I need to put everything back on the motor. i have all the TQ specs and bolt patterns. Now i need to know in what order to reassemble it.
cam-oilpan-timing assembly-heads??
basically want to confirm what im doing before i do it. i hate back tracking.
Also where do i need RTV and where do i not.
i know i need it on the water pump gasket. i know i don't need it on the valve cover gaskets.
i know i need it on the timing cover on the top of the gasket but
there are 2 pieces to the timing cover gasket a lower and a upper.
the lower piece contacts the rubber gasket on the oil pan. do i need rtv on both sides of that gasket or just the side with metal contact. Do i need to lay rtv on the oil pan gasket.
i have gaskets in this kit i don't know where they go
how do i replace the rear main gasket?
i know what the timing gaskets are for crank and cam.
Any help to this head ache would be appreciated.
