05 jeep Cherokee with the 5.7 hemi, and stock weight, but the extra power should make up for it. When i ran him; I had an almost full tank of 87, and my spare tire in the car.

When i run you; no spare, no rear seats, 1/4 tank of 91, taking the belt off the car, 28psi in the 275's, and those undisclosed parts i ordered. :chug:

Good luck.:D

prob just P@P a set of stocks, or if theres a chance to find a good set of 243's prob go that route. Dont feel like spending 1000+ on heads.

naw i was figuring racing you for that S class.

still having issues taking off the balancer, thought i had a small bolt to have it press against. i used a bunch of boomers coins but where im at now ive bent though alot. gonna try 8 coins thick this time

EDIT: Nvm 8 boomers coins wrapped in duct tape did the trick. Now comes disassembly time!!!!

You'll find it's a piece of cake.

no joke, didnt realize how late some of you are on here. I had to take this chick home, so i said lets see whats what on tech

any ideas on how to take the 4 bolt main caps off?

Met you at Ryne's bbq. LS1 right? Aren't they 6 bolt mains? Good luck with the build. I'm gonna do the LSx swap to my Z28 if i don't sell it...

There is a company that makes a main cap puller. They are a bitch to pull off for the first time.

Good to hear from you man, And its an LS1 with 4 bolt mains. not sure but i think only the LS6's, LQ4/9, and so on and so forth are 6 bolt mains.

EDIT: they are 6 bolt mains 4 on the top, 2 on the sides, that could be why they DIDNT FUCKING BUDGED!!!!!:bang::bang:

And i pulled all the pistons out all thats left is the crank being held in by the mains.

When I disassembled the LQ4, I used a long screwdriver (24") to gently pry up on the main windows. I slid it through the front and the back of the block, depending on which main I was trying to remove. The middle main wouldn't budge, so I took two shop rags and I wrapped one through each main window and pulled up on the rag on both sides while wiggling it back and forth. It eventually came out.

EDIT: I told you before, if you run into any roadblocks, give me a call, I've disassembled these engines before. I have a DVD that outlines the teardown and assembly of a LM7. It's four hours long, it's a great DVD, you can borrow it if you want.
