Chevy Small-Block V8 Engine Rebuild Time-Lapse | Redline Rebuild - S1E1

The Chevy small-block V-8 is an engine that has touched so many lives that, no matter where your car brand loyalty lies, chances are good that you’ve got a personal story about one. It has powered tens of millions of passenger cars, trucks, race machines and boats. Calling it an American icon would not be an overstatement or hype. To celebrate 60 years of this icon, we took one apart and put it back together, and we recorded the process to share with you. Thanks to our sponsor RockAuto.com.
