Lb7s still amaze me

[Ne-max]

Pulled the heads off my 01 today. Suprised to see how clean the thing is inside. Truck has almost 320000 miles on it and a tire shop owned it before me. The oil seems to stay clean a lot longer then my lmm. On my last 03 lb7 the oil would still be nice and clean at 3000 miles when id change it. After working on so many powerstrokes this really suprises me.

I thought the same thing about mine when I opened it up for injectors around 225k. It's pretty impressive really.

What are you doing to that thing if you've got the heads off? :woott:

Mine was spotless inside when I opened her up. However diesel fuel cleans engines well

 

[TeaBagger2006]

Its only spotless because of all the diesel in the oil. Damn lb7's.

Made them more than any other models. They have to be the best. Look at who's making the power and who's not. :thumbup:

Studs and gaskets. Figure nows the time to do it.

Wow this thread took a crap real quick.

I dont care if it was fuel in oil that kept it so clean. Shes at 320000 miles and still running like a champ. Does not burn oil at all and the oil stays clean. I can even see the cross hatches still in the cylinder. Must be a crappy motor. BTW I have a lmm also and I still like my Lb7 better.

Mine is over 300k and still kicking it. Love my lb7.

That's pretty good, mine looked like someone ran 40 grit sand paper down mine at 190k

 

[chevyburnout1]

200k on mine and the crosshatching still looked factory. Minus a few gouges, but that may have been from that compressor wheel it ate

You guys probably didnt know this but the 01-02 lb7s were the best years
