The ATK ENGINES DC053 is a remanufactured 396 CI / 6.6L V8 engine assembly for 1968-1972 GMC Trucks. ATK's facilities are QS-9000 and ISO 9001 certified. The remanufacturing process includes magnafluxing, boring, honing, and line-honing of engine blocks; line-boring camshaft bearings; precision surfacing of blocks and cylinder heads; magnafluxing and machining cylinder heads for three-angle valve seats; stress-relieving, precision grinding, and micro-polishing crankshafts; and precision grinding or replacing camshafts. Each engine undergoes rigorous testing for compression, oil pressure, oil leaks, engine noise, and general operating condition. Engines are shipped without valve covers, timing cover, and oil pan unless specified otherwise. This item is discontinued.
