Replying to @mdcameron immediately after making the first video regarding the odd lifter oiling issue, I decided it was time to inspect the oil filter before attempting to repair what *might* be just a symptom of a greater problem... as it turns out, my suspicion was correct. there is a significant amount of bearing material inside the oil filter. my guess is, as many people suggested, a damaged/spun cam bearing or possibly a rod bearing. I don't actually know exactly what work was done to this engine before it was brought to me other than the cam swap. so...as I often have to do, I informed the owner and told him that he can either leave the truck with me for a complete engine rebuild and no definite delivery date, or he can cut his losses and pick it up at his convenience. he chose the latter, so I will not be digging into this engine any further...so, sorry for that huge disappointment 😂 bentune #Chevrolet #Chevy #Silverado #BrianTooleyRacing #Wednesday ##bentune#hptuners#dyno#tuning#mustangdyno#dynotuning#gm#trucks#chevrolet#chevy#silverado#lsx#btr#briantooleyracing#mechanic#mechanicsoftiktok#racetruck#wednesday#reply#engine#failure#badnews#ontothenextone#work#help#itshotoriginal sound

Tuning is complete now after the BTR stage 4 truck cam swap. the truck also received a Yank triple disc converter along with a S&B intake and some long tube headers. overall gains are nice and driveability is superb. the truck is happy and so is the owner. #bentune #hptuners #dyno #tuning #mustangdyno #dynotuning #gm #trucks #Chevrolet #Chevy #Silverado #ltx #lt1 #L83 #L86 #btr #BrianTooleyRacing #mechanic #mechanicsoftiktok #racetruck #black #rcsb #pickup #4x4 #Yank #Friday #work #lfg

I was sent this little scan tool to try out in my shop and see how I like it. here is an unboxing and initial setup video. My initial impression is that it is fairly intuitive to use and seems to be made of decent quality materials. I will try it out over the next few weeks as opportunities arise and keep you guys posted on whether or not I like it, but first impression is pretty good. it appears to have some features that will come in handy that my tuning software does not have. it can also read and clear codes and modules that I cannot see with my tuning software. some of the bidirectional controls it appears to have also will prove useful in the future, I will make more videos as the opportunities present themselves #bentune #mechanic #mechanicsoftiktok #diy #repair #diagnose #Diag #diagnostic #automotive #performance

wrapped up the tuning on a 2013 CTS-V. this car in a previous video demonstrated low compression on a few cylinders with only 2 being close to "normal." I was apprehensive to complete the tuning but the owner wanted to see what it would do, so here it is. #bentune #hptuners #dyno #tuning #mustangdyno #dynotuning #gm #cars #GM #Cadillac #CTSV #LSA #ZL1 #SS #supercharged #supercharger #boost #alltheboost #boosted #E85 #ethanol #fuel #6speed #automatic #lsx #dsxtuning #kong #tsp #Texasspeed #mechanic #mechanicsoftiktok #racecar #streetcar #Monday #work #LFG

it seems like I'm seeing these issues more and more frequently. incorrect catch can and incorrect PCV line routing is causing people all sorts of issues and it is obviously getting overlooked. here's a case of a supercharged Pontiac G8 that had incorrectly routed PCV/breather lines and it caused the rear main seal to blow out, leaking oil constantly out the rear of the engine. #bentune #hptuners #dyno #tuning #mustangdyno #dynotuning #gm #Pontiac #G8 #GT #GXP #LSX #LS3 #L76 #boost #turbo #supercharged #supercharger #boosted #alltheboost #nobeltlag #racecar #repair #work #lfg #fyp #fypシ

I finally had a truck come in for a dyno tune it was actually hassle-free, so I knocked it out real quick. This 2007 classic Silverado is sporting a Truck Norris camshaft from Brian Tooley Racing along with a FTI torque converter, long tube headers, TBSS intake manifold with a LS3 throttle body and some flex fuel injectors to handle the extra airflow. This video is to demonstrate the importance of keeping your commanded AFR safe during the tuning process in the event that the actual AFR ends up being much leaner than what you are commanding. A wideband O2 sensor is a necessity for this process in most vehicles, but especially GM vehicles that only have narrowbands from the factory. #bentune #hptuners #dyno #tuning #mustangdyno #dynotuning #gm #trucks #Chevrolet #Chevy #Silverado #4pointgreat #lsx #btr #BrianTooleyRacing #diy #howto #hopethishelps #mechanic #mechanicsoftiktok #racetruck #trucknorris #cam #camshaft #LFG
