Want to see a particular engine torn down? I may have already done one! No really, check out my other videos for the engine you'd like to see! I've made over 60 other teardowns from Cummins to an LS7, and from Rotary to Ram Ecodiesels. Check them out here    • Blown Up Engine Tear Downs! A collect...  
My name is Eric and I own and run a full service auto salvage business called Importapart located in the Saint Louis MO area. Part of our model is dismantling and selling parts from rare and niche market engines. If you're interested in buying parts from this engine or the other engines I've torn down, email us at [email protected].
In this video, I tear down a 4.3L LV3 Gen5 V6 from a 2014 and newer Silverado or Sierra. This engine is basically 3/4's of a Gen5 5.3 sharing most of the architecture. This engine did not appear to be overly abused but could have been a higher mileage engine. Its unfortunate that the failure point was a problem that plagues this and the previous generation of engines.
I hope you enjoyed this teardown. As always I appreciate all of the comments, feedback and even the criticism.
Catch you on the next one!
Eric
