Features

  • Remanufactured Long Block: Fully rebuilt to D&J Precision Machine specifications for a reliable replacement engine.
  • Precision Machined: CNC blueprinted, bored, honed, and deck surfaced for precise cylinder geometry and proper piston fit. Each crankshaft is checked for straightness and size and repaired as needed.
  • New OEM-Spec Tier 1 Pistons and Rings: Provides a high-quality piston and ring package for proper fit, sealing, and consistent engine performance.
  • Remanufactured Cylinder Heads: Resurfaced and fitted with recut valve seats and new valves for proper sealing and reliable valve operation. The upgraded L5P top-hat valve stem seal design helps prevent valve seal failure and improve long-term durability.
  • Tier-1 Head Gaskets: Provides reliable cylinder sealing to help address common LML head gasket failure.
  • Keyed Crankshaft and Camshaft: Addresses a known failure point by providing positive mechanical retention between the shaft and gear, helping prevent unwanted movement and related component failure.
  • New Bearings and Thrust Washers: Restores proper internal clearances and supports reliable engine operation.
  • New Valves: New high-quality valves provide reliable sealing and consistent valve operation for improved long-term durability and performance.
  • New Valve Springs: Restores proper valvetrain operation and performance.
  • Precision Assembly: Critical engine dimensions and clearances are verified throughout the build for consistent quality.
  • In-House RMC Engine Testing: Before shipment, every engine is mounted on D&J's dynamic engine test system and rotated at speed while sensors measure oil pump pressure and volume, cylinder compression, and cooling system integrity. This lets D&J catch internal issues in-house, before the engine ever reaches your truck.
  • Built for Everyday Use: Designed to provide reliable performance for everyday driving, and towing applications.

About This Product

The D&J Precision Machine Essential Long Block is a replacement engine solution for 2011-2016 GM 6.6L LML Duramax applications. Each engine is completely disassembled, cleaned, inspected, precision machined, and rebuilt to D&J Precision Machine specifications.

The block is precision machined and matched with OEM-spec Tier 1 pistons and rings as required to achieve proper fit and performance. Cylinder heads are inspected and resurfaced with recut valve seats and new valves. The upgraded L5P top-hat valve stem seal design helps improve valve sealing and long-term durability.
The engine is assembled with Tier-1 head gaskets and all-new bearings, thrust washers, lifters, valve springs, and freeze plugs.

Each engine is measured and tested in-house using D&J Precision Machine’s RMC ETS test equipment before shipment. The engine undergoes a controlled test sequence to verify key operating conditions, including cylinder compression and coolant testing. This in-house testing allows D&J to identify potential issues before the engine leaves the facility, providing an additional level of quality control and helping ensure the completed long block is ready for installation and service.

The result is a professionally remanufactured LML Duramax long block designed to provide dependable performance for everyday driving and towing applications.

Does this D&J LML long block have any internal upgrades over a stock engine?

Yes, this engine is remanufactured with several key upgrades for improved durability over the factory LML engine, most notably the valve stem seals. — While this is an OEM-spec replacement, not a high-performance build, it incorporates specific enhancements based on common LML failure points. The most significant upgrade is the use of superior L5P-style top-hat valve stem seals, which provide better sealing and oil control than the original LML design. Additionally, the block and cylinder heads undergo extensive preparation: — • The block is fully disassembled, cleaned, and precision machined. • Cylinder heads are resurfaced, and valve seats are recut for a perfect seal with the new valves. • It is assembled with high-quality Tier-1 head gaskets. • All wear items are replaced with new components, including bearings, thrust washers, lifters, valve springs, and freeze plugs.

What parts will I need to swap over from my old LML engine?

This is a long block assembly, so you will need to transfer your fuel system, turbocharger, intake, exhaust manifolds, and all belt-driven accessories from your original engine. — The D&J Precision Machine Essential Long Block consists of the engine block with a rotating assembly (crank, rods, pistons) and the cylinder heads with valvetrain. You are responsible for swapping over all external components to complete the engine. Key items to transfer include: — • Fuel injectors and high-pressure fuel pump (CP4) • Turbocharger and associated plumbing • Intake manifold and EGR components • Exhaust manifolds and up-pipes • All sensors and the main engine wiring harness • All belt-driven accessories like the alternator, power steering pump, and AC compressor • The flywheel/flexplate

Is this engine tested before it ships?

Yes, every D&J Precision Machine long block is run on an in-house engine test stand before it is shipped. — This isn't just a simple pressure check. The engine is put through a controlled test sequence using RMC ETS equipment to verify critical operating parameters. This process allows the builders to confirm key metrics like cylinder compression and perform coolant system pressure tests in a simulated operating environment. This level of quality control helps identify and correct any potential leaks or machining issues before the engine ever leaves their facility, ensuring it arrives ready for a smooth installation.

Is any special machine work done to the block or heads?

Yes, extensive machine work is performed on every block and cylinder head to meet D&J's specifications. — The engine block is precision machined to ensure it is perfectly true and provides the correct clearances for the new OEM-spec Tier 1 pistons and rings. The cylinder heads are also fully inspected and resurfaced. As part of the head service, the valve seats are recut to ensure they mate perfectly with the new valves that are installed. This machining is critical for ensuring proper combustion sealing, oil control, and long-term engine durability.

What vehicles is this LML long block compatible with?

This engine is a direct replacement for the 6.6L LML Duramax in 2011 to 2016 model year Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD 2500/3500 trucks. — This long block is specifically designed and built for the LML engine platform, which was used by General Motors from the 2011 model year through the 2016 model year. It will fit any Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD / 3500 HD or GMC Sierra 2500 HD / 3500 HD within this year range that was factory-equipped with the 6.6L LML Duramax diesel engine. It is not compatible with earlier generations (LBZ, LMM) or the later L5P engine found in 2017+ trucks.
