Here's a tear down, internal measure, and rebuild of a Detroit 60 series.We tore this engine down and did complete measurements of this engine as a team. I learned a lot about engines from doing this as a team with a couple guys from second year in my group.I never tore a engine down measured much of engine or put a engine together from the block up until this engine.I learned how to use a inside micrometer a digital micrometer and a manual micrometer to do all the measurements. I took a ton of pictures of the whole process i will show you I hope you enjoy this as much as i did.
