Gmc 98 C2500

[What?]

GMC SLE 5.7 Automatic, Long Bed, 180k. Mainly for towing and would consider SAS.


It had coolant leak so decide to freshen up the whole motor.

 

[What?]

I plan on re-ring the bottom end, but want to make sure I'm getting the right parts matching the current parts.

Piston GM 61A 10172839

Rod GM-45 18021941

Crank GM-45 18025277
GM-45 18019643

Oil Pump end cap bearing A-400 .001

I would need to get 4 of the crank each.

Would SEALED POWER 2056504M with standard size be good?

Motor's out, will be going to machine shop soon.

Heads already re-done.

 

[What?]

Time for parts to be put together

Let me know what you are missing, I bought a k1500 for parts and have a ton of them.

Thanks, I'll let you know as soon I see what I can't get from junkyard

 

[What?]

Bummer. Gonna get rid of this truck. Might as well buy another one that runs instead of dumping 4500 on crate motor

What happened?

 

[Levigarrett76]

Valvetrain issue?

 

[What?]

What happened?

First crank had insanely loud mistire/backfire (louder than shotgun) then adjust distributor. Still wouldn't fire up after that. Compression test shows above. I don't have space for tearing apart and store all components. As I'm about to head off for the season.

 

[M92PV4U]

That sucks.
