How do you rebuild a Chevrolet LT1 engine?

Answer by  MarkGress (479)

The complete process on how to rebuild, inspect, and repair and replace components of a chevy v8 can either be found in the vehicle haynes manual itself or you can find books on rebuilding the engine and all of its components. The biggest choice you can make is to rebuild or replace with a new motor.

If you're inexperienced, rebuilding an engine alone is not recommended. If you still want to tackle it, a good Chilton's manual for your car/truck can be a great reference for specific procedures. I recommend buying new replacement parts for rings, gaskets, etc., but other parts you may find acceptable to buy used. Good luck!

The best thing to do is to get a LT1 rebuild kit and make sure you get the Pistons and valves and gaskets to do a proper rebuild.
