Modern engines seem to have much tighter tolerances that require assembly to be perfect. It nearly never is on a rebuild. Either a new GM long block or a new truck is my suggestion. A junkyard motor can be a jewel or a turd. It's up to you if you want to gamble.

Part of me says to LS swap it. That will take some creative thinking though. If you pull the pistons you’ll likely find the oil control rings seized to the piston from carbon build up. These engines are notorious for burning oil. GM has a bulletin out stating 1 qt per 1000 miles is normal. If memory serves me correct if the head is warped more than .004 inch you’ll need a new head. The reason being is that the entire head warps and it causes the cams to bind. Even if you plane the head you’ll still have the issues with the cams binding which in turn will cause scoring in the cam journals and introduce metal into the oil. If this is the last truck that your dad plans on having then I would go with a GM crate engine. I would also go through the transmission if the fluid is really bad. There are some good aftermarket updates that will basically make the tranny bullet proof. Even if you do not go through the tranny at this time I would recommend installing an aftermarket cooler and change the fluid and filter to try to extend the life.

That engine is done for. After as many years of doing this kind of work and the time involved to get it back together as you wait for a machine shop to give you the news that your crank is just a core, the rods have been compromised, the end thrust on the crank is into the block, valve guides are probably not going to hold well from heat and two dissimilar metals make it un guaranteeable... been there and gone through this kind of heart aches. Personally a long block or a engine you can hear run from a take out... not a first choice yet if enough paperwork came with it. Was that a book or a sentence. Please consider another engine as you guys do get every mile a rig can offer provided someone doesn't back over this truck. I pulled up on my logging landing and a skidder operator blasted out of the brush near it, I had just stepped out or he would of nailed me as it hit the drivers door. Of course this was many years ago and I was you kids age..... respectively your full grown adults and not any meaning of dissent intended. After all, Mr. Trump survived someones horrible idea he would fix stuff and guaranteed our Mr. Trumps victory. Maybe with runaway inflation under control, a man who knows business like no ones business can get things moving again. For the time being, Get Robert, (Dad) a E-bike and see what electric bikes plug into in the field. I have not heard bad things about these engines or other as I have left the field of wrenching many years ago. I would go to a engine supplier of reputable works and price against a new reman from the dealer. Your prices at a dealership should give you quite a bit of leverage on prices... A regular warranty and those extended ones are really never what you hoped for. I do not advise using a bigger engine or any other than what they come with. You just did the Pete and seen how many changes from year to year on a commercial rig. Pickups were changed on the line as the build sheet said and then wired accordingly. It just gets really ugly in my thoughts. One other thought is parking it till later and getting another rig for time being yet coming back to a rodents nest is not my idea of a good day. Peppermint oil men! Rodents hate the stuff and everyone likes a peppermint stick at christmas. A occasional shot of that peppermint oil inside the truck would help some, tractors also

Thanks for another great video Welkers. It was interesting and enjoyable to watch. Bob, I am sorry about your engine. From what I saw I think it was just worn out. The inside of the engine did not look good. Sorry!!!!!!! You asked for opinions. I believe this is what I would do. I am 50-50 divided between getting a new engine with warranty and all the parts OR replacing the pickup all together. Believe first I would see what is available in the area on a nice used pickup. Then I would see what a new engine would cost me with all the pieces I need. THEN compare the two costs and evaluate which way to go. More thoughts on the engine. I would definitely go with a new complete engine with all the parts. That way you are not hanging old parts on a new engine. I would not take old parts and make them work on a new engine. See what the two differences are cost wise. And go from there. Is the rest of the pickup in decent shape?? If not I would lean towards just replacing the pickup. Both Nick and Scott had problems with replacement engines if I remember correctly. I have no idea what your area is like for a decent used pickup. I am in central Iowa and I looked at pickup availability. Appears lots of used pickup’s on the market. Might be the same in your area?? Will be interesting to see what works for you Bob. See what fits the best for you. Sorry about your pickup. Knowing you, you will see what works best for you. Hang in there Bob. Sending prayers and positive thoughts your way for the pickup issue and more moisture for the crops. The Iowa farm boy. Steve. 😊😊👍🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸

Be careful who you buy a reman engine from my father in law decided to go that route because it was "quicker" than me rebuilding his. His was a 4.3 out of a Astro van. I pulled the old engine and installed his reman he made it 12 miles before it chucked a rod. So I pulled the reman and they gave him a warranty engine. It was plum full of rust so we declined it. The company he went through decided to go with a different reman company and he got about 600 miles out of that reman. The company only allowed for 1 warranty engine. So after fighting with them for almost 6 months with no engine and no refund I went to the junkyard and bought a 4.3 and rebuilt it in about a month and a half machine work always takes forever. It took him a year to get a refund so his van that he used for his construction company would have been down for a year and a half by the time he got his refund if i wouldn't have just built a engine for him. We live not far from you in Idaho so depending on what you decide to do just be sure to ask where the reman engine is coming from our Napa auto parts store and autozone and O'Reillys all get their reman engines from the same company. So if you go that route be careful and look the engine over very carefully. Best of luck

I think the time you guys spend having to send the engine out and buy the parts assembly and all that you just get a complete reman engine. Maybe even find a nice low mile engine that you could put in for even cheaper. I know you never know the condition when buying used but could be worth the gamble.

@@mikek5298 @MostlyInteresting All points made are valid. Let me give you a perspective from the viewpoint of having years of experience running a fleet of thousands of vehicles and what I would take into account to help me form the best decision for a vehicle. When you want to discuss costs, the cheaper option upfront will naturally appear to be the Budget DIY rebuild option….but that is taking and rebuilding a high mileage engine with now a known and very visible evidence of a hard life and lack of maintenance under previous ownership. So first issue to consider is if you do DIY fix this -how far into it will you end up going. The overall condition of this engine and vehicle for that matter will suggest that financially by the time the parts and labor are added up to get it back up and running, it is essentially not far off the option to simply drop in a new crate motor. Now depending on how far into the rebuild you get, the next question is once it is up and running again (doing it on the cheap), how long will it last before additional repairs are required….hence adding more money and labor time spent on an even higher mileage engine at that point. While it may appear the DIY repair is the more economical route to go, it is infact always more likely to be far costly during the ownership life time of the vehicle. The most important cost people forget to assess before they decide to go for one solution over another is the Opportunity Loss Cost associated with the vehicle being not useable - not just now, but in the future when it breaks down again. What amount dollarwise do you value your labor at? In this video you have three people fully and partially involved in the engine tear down…. that is all a cost to be associated with the repair both now and in the future. Time is money. The wiser option and cheaper over longterm ownership will be to simply replace the motor. Not only will the motor be new/rebuilt crate motor, it will have a warranty - something your own DIY work will not have. It will come from a supplier that has every machine and tool required to make the engine and if things go wrong you have a warranty to fall back on. Now if you are concerned with Crate engine costs, then drop a 4 cylinder in and have both an economical engine and cheap running costs due to the efficiency of the motor. If you need HP, then you go for a basic V8 with a carb - no electronics required apart from basic power to start, so no ECU issues or wiring loom issues. If anyone has the ability to rebuild an engine, they also then have the ability to wire it. This is a nothing fancy/special POS truck, it has had a hard life with lack of maintenance. Cheapest option is a similar junkyard engine swap. But if they want YT content - then drop a decent Crate Motor in (episode revenue should easily cover costs).

Put a Cummins motor or a Cat motor in it?

See, I was right it was something to do with low oil pressure 😊 Get a good long block and put it in. It might as well have the transmission gone through to what The oil look like .

Cam bearings are the cyl head journals. No brgs.

You guys need to take care of your dad. Get him a crate motor and help him get it back together.

Put in a Fairmont Put Put. LOL It's a two seater and people can't buy those and want dollars for them. Get a reman engine, I think youll save money. Order some really good oil. Penzoil, or better. Buy oem oil filter too, it will protect best. This will last for a long time. Best to you Bob, Your truck and your family, and your crop!

I have a good engine shop near me so I would have the block bored, if it needs it. I'd reuse the rods and crank. The head looks good to me but I'm not there to see it first hand. I'd measure the lobes to see how much wear. Pull the cam caps and check the wear. I've had some reman stuff that was junk. Buyer be ware.

A pick-up? Yes, that white truck with the crane is a pick-up. Because it picks things up. 😁😜🤘

Municipalities could order those with the V8. When I lived in Lubbock, the city water department had extended cabs with the V8, don’t remember if it was 4.8 or the 5.3, but it will fit.
