ok i just boosted my B18b1. and i think i spun a bearing. how did this happen. and how can i prevent it from happening agian? it's like a tap tap tap sound and it gets faster with the RPMs

 

its probably num 1 cylinder, same thing happend to my ls, oil pump maybe gave out

 

how high were you revving? Was it a stock bottom end? If so how many miles were on it?

 

u forgot to put oil in?

 

mark, when the oil feed line was leaking, how much did u drive it and how much oil did it lose? yer still an idiot

 

the motor had maybe like 100k and i wasn't beating on it to much. if i did bring the RPMs up, i brought it up to 7000. but how dus this happen if i did sipn a bearing>?

 

are u sure it isnt your valves?? check to make sure your valvetrain bolt thingies are tight, i had a problem one time when those became loose and started ticking

 

spun bearing means lack of oil, figure it out

 

well you can spin a bearing many ways...number one way people spin bearing is over revving...but the bearing might have been just worn out..i mean the car is turbo and the bottom end had 100k on it...plus the bottom end is stock..ls rods are not the strongest rods in the world and the rod bolts tend to stretch..what i would do is just get another ls crank get it micropolished (cost about 60) get new rods (scats are 300 new) and some pistons (mahles are good) and put it together with new bearings and itss be fresh and will be able to rev higher..i would also get some arp headstuds as well.....p.s. if you need another crank to get done before u take yours apart i have 2 with spun bearings for sale..i take like 40$ for one let me know

 

caN YOU GIVE ME THE WEB SITE FOR THOSE RODS AND PISTONS PLZ. SO I CAN RESEARCH THEM A LIL BIT. AND I HAVE ANOTHER BOTTOM END BUT I NEED TO START LOOKING FOR PARTS. BUT THANKS FOR THE OFFER. BUT IF YOU SAY THEAS PARTS ARE GOOD I'LL TAKE A LOOK AT THEM. HIT ME BACK
