Thank you for another great video. I once did the calculation on how much air gets into the dual port head compared to a single port head. Its amazing, plus the air or gas mixture flow isnt splitted in the head but before and that makes it a better flow I guess. Greatings from the Home country of all our Volkswagens 👍🤗😎
Thanks for all of the information. I honestly don’t know where I could learn what I have learned anywhere else. Books are fine and all but to see it and hear it I take in the info much easier. Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge. I greatly appreciate it.
I'm loving these engine-centered videos lately! The engine is for me the most fascinating and rewarding part of my bug. I envy you with your 1600-based engines. I have 36hp, 40 and 1600 platforms and it can be a pain keep all the incompatible parts segregated. Take care Ez. I'll comment more as I think of stuff! Ted
You’re a beast bro. Funny business. I had to watch the whole thing cuz I was afraid I would miss something. Too much knowledge. I can for the oil pump talk. Learned a lot more. I’m trying to figure out if I can change the 6 mm studs for the oil pump to 8mm studs.
The early motors that didn't have a filter used w30 oil with no detergents so the sludge would collect in the strainer pan. Hence the oil changers every 2000 miles and clean the oil sump instead of changing a filter.
still enjoying these long videos! keep up the good work! i liked the comment u made about head porting being somewhat of a black art! you are right it really is! i know a couple of people that do that stuff by eye and there stuff runs great! cant wait till the next video!!! thanks again for the free information and experience!!!
Ounce those guys figure out what works they don't share it ether. ...... What are you running in that car. Oh nothin special just my old 1600, It's all Stock. heheheh yeah right!
Hay Professor, really cool video. Looking forward to the test results. With everything you have done, now I'm thinking of backing off of my 1776, and just leave this 1600, but put the. 110 cam. Trick up the heads, and valve train, and run it. Should last me a good longtime, and save me a butt load of money. You really helped me on this. Thanks buddy.
That mystery hole in your oil pump is for filter/cover type pumps. Oil goes out that hole to the filter then returns to the factory exit port of the pump.
I'm hip to your jive I just don't ever remember having one of those with 26mm gears. Usually they come with wider gear for the extra workload. I've put about 100 miles on it this morning and it did just fine. No worse or better than the EMPI filter pump I took off???? This case has seen some better days and although the bearing are 2nd over the pressure is not what I would like. I've checked all the relief pistons and springs several times??? I am going to waste time worrying about it. I will run it and post the storys to help whomever I can.
@@TheEZGZ The berg anodized o ring 26mm pumps have cured low pressure problems on old cases for me. Maybe the case has hoover mods and needs the 30mm pump. Sometimes an old case just wants thicker oil. The diesel 15-40 has worked well for me and has a bit of zinc in it. What pressures are you seeing at what rpm? Im just about to finish up the new 1800 for the bus, you are giving me a bit of hope to press on. Last thing for me now is to finish rocker geometry and cut the pushrods and then I can button it up (for the 14th time)
Hey ez have you ever seen a cam chip the oil pump drive gear. I have a w100 and a oil filter pump and I've got it apart to fix the number 4 front lower head stud that got over torqued and pulled. I noticed two chips out of my oil pump drive on opposite side of each other
Thats what I was showing you in the vid at one point. If the pump is scratched and pitted throw a new pump in to be safe. That's what I would do. But don't throw the old one away. Keep it for 30 years. hehehe
Normally when I do a oil change I add 1/2 a bottle. If I use a quart of oil after miles and drips I will add a quart. Next time it gets down a quart I dump it all and start over. I change the screw on filter every other oil change.
That looks like the case you did the full flow video on a couple years ago. How do you feelaboutflow clearancing the oil pump? I did that with mos of my pumps

I haven't had the need to. Some guys do it so than can better clean a used case. My aluminum case came with all the holes tapped and included the plugs. When ever I have a case apart I tap it for full flow and just plug it like in this vid and use the pump filter. You don't have to worry about blowing out plugs if you use a bigger pump. IMHOP I hope that answers your question.
Thanks for the visit. Sorry I haven't had time to stop by your place lately, or anybody else's for that matter. I been staying busy experimenting and posting.
32:45.... "A good Hand Job is Always Acceptable." Thats just gold right there.
Glad you enjoyed that.
I've been building my first engine and find you video very informative. Keep it up.

Thanks for posting another great video. It’s more info than I can process with my brain. It will be nice when you can go for a ride. BigW:-)
Will do!

Your plan has merit but I would stick with a cheater cam like a CB 2260 or engel w90 or stock with 1.25 ratio rockers
@@TheEZGZ OK, thanks for the tip.

Tony More that is correct, already was thinking of posting the same comment 👍

Thanks ezy for the update. But please be careful with that chute...... whiplash is a whole nother thing
Good point! I'll attach the band from my Corona mask to the head rest for extra protection. hehehe

Nice buggy! Do you run the zinc additive all the time, or just during the break in period?

Nice Video. How did it go with the sand seal for the pulley?
It's good

I think flowing the pump is great until it's time to remove it.
Have you ever thought of using a 45 or 90 degree AN fitting instead of the 90 brass fitting? You wouldn’t have to file as much if at all.
My 1776 had that when I got it. I don't know where to get a AN tapp?
Looooog one this time. Took me 2 or 3 days but I enjoyed it. Thanks!
Same here :)
Hope you enjoyed it!
Great! Video loved it…. Learning a lot from ya. Sure wished I could visit ya sometime. Ez keeping going. Have a good day sir.
Thanks, you too!

No replacement for displacement 🤪
Thats true :-)
did you take it for a test ride yet
yep, No more pump leak. Just the normal dribble. hehehe
Great video!

wow thanks for the long video i spent the day with you lol
Glad you enjoyed
Ez when you use a pulley with a sand seal and shim it takes a longer crank bolt that's why a stock bolt doesn't screw in far enough
The shim is only 3/16 stock bolts works fine. Just check it now and them. Seems like I'm always turning it to check valve settings.
👍
thanks
