Hey guys I wasn't clear about what I thought the issues could be with the factory Porsche oil pressure sensor. What I meant was that they failed often and this was the original sensor. Considering the hacked-up wiring I thought there was a gauge reading issue. I said translation issues and that wasn't really the right term and didn't make a lot of sense. Thanks for watching!

32:15 I found it :)

This was one of the best videos yet. I was of building my first performance SBC in 1975. I was able to find a 1970 LT1 that I pulled out of a '70 Corvette. I'm surprised at how I knew the steps along the way before you got there. I also remember all the little tricks we would do because we didn't have many of the things that are available today. Here's a shout-out to Errol Meadows who lived in Everett, Washington. I'm sure he is long gone by now, but he was an incredibly creative builder. He showed me a set of solid silver rod and main bearings he built for a 1965, 375 HP, Rochester FI motor. He had machined a mold for pouring the melted silver dollars. It was a very interesting process, to say the least. He built a lot of drag and sprint motors. That was a time where all the best builders were innovators. I did a lot of head work for him. I came up with a real breakthrough in SBC performance heads for him. I'm running out of time to tell 'the rest of the story.' (There's a reference for some old-timers!) Great job on the videos, with this one in particular.

Just found the channel and am enjoying the content,clear,well edited no crazy hype or drama,solid mechanical work( would have broken out the micrometer to check concentrity of rod journals and what bearings to order). Really had me when you related previous work for CTA in bus barn,have friends who worked CTA and am rebuilding trucks on south side- just installed new cab on a Volvo after frame straightened(insurance refused to total but should have). Will watch more as time allows.

Good thing about this channel is Alex gets it done in one video, not stringing viewer out for weeks with multiple videos on the same job.

Would love to see you take this to a track and see how it does now that it shouldn’t blow up like Hoovies.

It’s really great how this repair was explained in complete tear down and rebuild. Awesome Job!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

FYI the torque+angle method is ONLY FOR NEW BOLTS. This is why "rebuilt" LS engines seem to spin bearings more often than they should, tq+angle with used bolts overtightens them quite a bit. You can verify this by marking a factory bolt, loosening, then tq+angle and see it go 45-90deg past the old mark. I use 65lbs for inner main bolts, 55lbs for outer main, 18lbs for sides, 51lbs for gen4 rods and 45lbs for gen3 rods. Also when upgrading to ARP rod bolts, you must either use the same torque spec OR have the rod resized. Increased torque WILL decrease clearances on the top/bottom by making it oval.

I last did any serious work on car engines 45 years ago when I was young - nothing as fancy as your 'stable', just VW air-cooled Beetles and vans :-) Watching your videos has brought back the enormous pleasure and satisfaction of working through issues and making them better. Thank you!

Alex is one of the best KZreadrs when it comes to clearly explaining the problem, the probable cause, and the recommended fix... and then doing an excellent repair!

For polishing the crank like you did, use a flexible ruler next time. It's wider so you can wrap it around the sandpaper completely giving you more consistent pressure across the surface since it's wider than a shoe string.

I love when you throughly explain things you do and why you do them and give us all this information I learn something new everytime I watch your videos. Thank you!

It’s so obvious how much effort you put into these videos. You n Max are killing it with the editing.

When polishing on the crank with sandpaper, it is best to have the oil holes straight down and when cleaning it, put the spray nozzle tube of the brake cleaner can high up inside the crank to insure no grit is left inside. It doesn't take much to ruin a new bearing.

I don't even have a car but I love watching your video's! Very interesting, entertaining and true craftsmanship. Thanks Alex and Max!

Truly an amazing rod and main bearing video. Quite a bit explained and very much appreciated. This video took the mystery out of bearings for a lot of us. I definitely thank you very much for this video. Definitely a favorite.

I read your Porsche to do list. I love how informative your videos are! Now that I have an LS engine in my Yukon xl, I believe this is good stuff to know for any future repairs.

theres a lot of spots an ls can bleed off oil pressure, lower pressure at idle is the first sign. Look up diagram of oil passages on an ls, pick up tube oring hardens and squares off with age, the dumbell plug at the back of the engine with two orings does the same thing, and the plate that holds the camshaft in also is a critical part of sealing the pressurized oil passages. That plate has a large sealing area that flattens out and hardens with age. Those things plus engine tolerances contribute to oil pressure variations

Oh and by the way, my LS powered 280k mile 2002 Silverado stock never torn down 5.3 vortec idles at around 30psi hot idle, 40 cold idle, 50-60psi highway cruising My other LS powered vehicle is a 2002 Corvette Z06 with 51k miles- hot idle is around 35-40psi, cold idle around 50-55psi, highway cruising it stays between 50-60psi, but it will peg the oil pressure gauge when you step on it no doubt. Never opened stock 5.7 LS6 motor. Basically an LS1 like your Porsche with different heads/valvetrain/intake as you already know. You are absolutely right though about the variation in oil pressures between “good running LS motors” some of my buddies have super low oil pressure and have no issues, some have higher pressure like my cars. I’m not sure why that is to be honest. I have noticed it though in the LS world, oil pressures are anywhere from 5psi hot idle to 40psi hot idle 🤷🏽‍♂️

Your doing a great job at getting number 1 done on the Porsche To Do List. Gave me a good laugh. Wonder how many people noticed it.

Not a huge surprise that an LS swapp into a 911 (or any modified from stock) without baffles put in the oil pan had spun rod bearings. With the increased acceleration the oil will be pushed to the back of the oil pan. Add to it a persistent overheat situation and it was amazing the rod journal's weren't toast. Dodged a huge bullet. Hmmm.... maybe name the car Kugel ausweichen (German for dodge bullet).

With lubrication being very important for every vehicle, I've been using Bestline Racing NanoLube engine oil treatment in addition to very regular oil changes. It supposed to dramatically reduce friction between metal parts and I've seen a small bump in mpg. With an older car, I could use a magic additive.

I'd take it easy until you get through those two oil changes with filters too. My lingering concern would be where else those shavings got pumped? Cam bearings? Rocker arms? Lifters?

That hadn't occurred to me until I saw the engine. Facing the wrong way, the LS oil pan is now closer to an old Chrysler layout, where the lowest part of the sump is in the front to make room for the rear mounted steering parts. Under hard acceleration, the Mopars would oil starve which made them timebombs at the drag strip. This Porsche probably has this problem, even worse since it might be quicker than those old Chryslers. Old gearheads have said that you can add baffles but the problem never really goes away because physics.

I had a 2001 911 Carrera, blew the original engine, and put a brand new LS crate motor in it. I wish I had this video series then. My exhaust was not good, and I think we could have done better with the wiring. I also think that Renogade hybrids has come a long way. When we did it we did not have accurate documentation and it was a lot of time figuring it out. I am interested in seeing what he does with the engine lid. I did not hack mine as bad as this one, but it was never really 100%. The car was scary fast and fun.

Good LegitStreetCars Saturday Morning Folks!

I usually skip to the end on videos like this. But this series has me watching the whole thing.

Enjoyed very much. Love that new exhaust. Appreciate the clean content also.

Really surprised to see you using the ARP bolts without resizing the rods. I've seen several new builds spin rod bearings because guys skipped out on that step. Obviously resizing isn't practical for an in chassis refresh so would have been better to stick with stock bolts. Love the build though!

Cylinder detonation (pinging) can cause rod bearings to fail prematurely as well. Might be hard to hear knocking and pinging under load with the engine in the back like that. Doubt this thing was tuned properly when they put it together
