Lubriplate L0034-094 No. 105 Motor Assembly Grease, 10 oz

Definitely a standard in my tool cabinet.

This is always going to be the go to assembly lube for motors and transmissions. I have tried many other brands but I always come back to this one!

I did use this grease during the 1st year mechanics training at SAIT back in 1979. It still is the preferred choice when assembling engines for main and rod bearings, cam lobes and oil pump. This stuff bridges the time between initial start and sufficient oil pressure. If you can prime the engine using an adapter for the oil pump drive prior to start, then that would be the preferred way of doing things. Failing that, this grease gives you the neccessary protection from wear during the initial start.

I use this grease on the assembly of almost everything! It resists washing out and has a high temperature resistance. I highly recommend it!

Recommended by a well-established machinist/engine builder, and I used it on a partial rebuild on an LS motor that I swapped into a first gen Camaro. Works well on engine bearings, valve train and camshaft, as well as other surfaces.
