Re: gm crate engine question
Does anybody know if the Vortec crate engine warranty is valid in our trucks?

However, if you make friends with your dealer, that year range might not be an issue, especially if it's dealer installed?

Re: gm crate engine question
LOL! I actually called them today. The guy that answered the phone couldn't cut the deal for me, but he gave me the name of someone who would be in on Monday that may be able to take care of it and offer the special price.
I'll keep you posted! Did your engine arrive yet?

Re: gm crate engine question
I have a quick question about these 195hp crate engines before I pull the trigger.
Does anybody know if they come with the holes drilled and tapped for the power steering pump, the clutch pedal rockshaft, and the oil pressure gauge? Here are some photos of what I'm talking about. This is where the power steering pump holes would be: (This particular block is not drilled and tapped) ![]() Here are the clutch bolts: (Just above the oil filter) ![]() And here is the oil pressure port: ![]()

Re: gm crate engine question
Thanks so much for the pics Redneck!
Update..................... I called Radley today about the price on this (195hp) engine. After getting transferred to about 4 different people, I finally spoke with their "engine guy". He was able to hook me up with the previous sale price! ($1352.99 + free shipping) I don't remember the guy's name, but if you call them looking for this good price, ask for "Pracillia" and give her a sob story about how you were going to buy one of these last week, but missed out on the old price and you were hoping they would honor that previous price. Whoever she transferred me to ended up sending an email invoice that was able to be paid with the choice of either PayPal or credit card. THE TRIGGER HAS BEEN PULLED!!!!

Re: gm crate engine question
I think you mean rolling lifter - all lifters rotate (until they fail and stop!) in their bores, that's why the lobe is off-center when you look in the lifter bore.

Re: gm crate engine question
Congrats Eldo! Tracking shows that mine should be here in a day or two. Did yours come with any literature regarding warranty or install/break-in instructions?

Re: gm crate engine question
Great thread. Getting ready to purchase one for my Blazer. The original engine has well over
100,000 miles and the bottom end just started making noise. The 195 looks like a great replacement engine. Original owner used the Blazer to push snow on his driveway in Gunnison Colorado. Engine is tried and the bottom end just started making noise. I don't need a powerhouse. Just a cruiser. Last edited by Big Block; 02-16-2017 at 02:57 PM. |

hi guys, I bought the 10067353 in 99 and have a e-brock performer,q-jet and headers. I put the 204-214 @050 420-442 cam in it. it now has 89,000 on it and runs great. no problems. also, chevy high performance mag, did a series of articles on this engine and they found it was 8.0 comp stock. it has hauled my 4500# truck around for many years, I feel I got my moneys worth. and its still running really strong.
