get new rod bearings, there is not point to put all that together for one day (soon) to see it go all into pieces… u could probably drive it for awhile but its better to be safe than sorry…
just my 2 cent…
1990Teg ur right i just called my mechanic and he said he put in some new OEM Rod bearings so thats a good call thanx and a question to all…are vtec oil squirters intstalled in the type r oil pump?
so any other suggestion to make a ls vtec last long than normaly?
ohhh shoot wait ok my mechanic just called and he said one more thing that needs to be done on the ls vtec i need to get new main bearings is this necessary cuz of now im low on the funds he said it will run strong but you know its been like 14 yrs since the bearings been on so what do ya think?
WTF does that say/mean?
normally- as opposed to what? (what is considered a normal lasting LS/Vtec to you?)
longer- as opposed to what? (I don’t think your build will last much longer then anyone elses if u are trying to save money on something like replacing main bearings.)
There are tons of threads on here about this build and u always ask the same questions. Do some research, it is not hard to reallize that the main bearings should be replaced if u are wanting a reliable motor. Take the cheap route and don’t get them, but don’t say you want a reliable motor if you wanna save money on something like a bearing inside your block.
The “oil squiters” aren’t on the oil pump, they are inside the block under each cylinder and the squirt oil upwards towards the cylinder head. The oil pump is on the side of the engine (far from the tranny) if u are rebuilding an engine, you should read the manual on your car, please do not ask all these questions before trying a little bit to find the answer.
:werd:
so what is a froum about then if ya asking me to do the research on my own, i mean ok ill do some but there is a time where ya can just ask here for a little help i mean aint this where ya come to ask questions. All im asking is ya’s opinnions and ya just come here and just gang up on a fool but anyways thats just kids plays and lets get back to the builders in these forums.
Ok check this out i turn the motor more like 5 times and then the crank started to get hot well not the crank it self but the bottom of the rods so wet took them apart and we see the the rod barings are all worn down. So we put in the a second set of main barings and did the same thing so we think that we have to recut the crank…what do ya think?
god damn it’s hard to understand what you’re typing. Slow down and use proper english and punctuation please.
I don’t like to flame on people but that is getting out of hand.
Lol
