    Don't be afraid to use red loctite on the intake and exhaust bolts and would probably get new ones but I'm picky. I Sand the surfaces with a body shop long board. It makes guick work out of it and you will be surprised how flat you can get it.

    • @b.c4066
      @b.c4066 2 года назад

      why not just buy loctite blue, its the same price and made for fasteners that need to be removed occasionally, or stuff put into aluminum. honda, yamaha, and many others have used it for decades and it works fine. when using red loctite stuff going into aluminum isnt such a good idea.

    Probably won't find an engine shop, but you might be able to Find an engineering shop, Toolmaker and get them to turn up Sleeves to suit the aluminium block to take std chev cam bearings, or make solid cam bearings out of a suitable material,, and then you should be able to use your old cam. Another option would be modifiy the cam to take needle roller bearings. use your old cam core press on steel sleeve onto each camshaft journal, and cylindrical grind to suit 50mm bearing. And use the correct 50mm needle roller bearings.

    You tig welded it, then had it turned? Try getting it spin welded, that will last, there are some masters on YT that spin weld on a lathe cranks and other bearing surfaces. Makes it like new and bonds better all the way around, and lasts better.

    • @garylucier6817
      @garylucier6817 2 года назад

      Spin welding is not done with electrical voltage, but a powder sprayed on, and a high temp gas torch while spinning in a lathe, build up the steel by tiny layers where it bonds completely in a 360 degree circle to beyond the needed measurement,, then it is lathed back down and then in multi-step process, polished to a mirror finish. It is a really cool process, and there are a host of old school masters still around in your part of the country.

    I can't believe more drag racers don't use short stroke engines. They worked great for many years in NASCAR engines. With about a 3.25" stroke/4"+ bore they made around 900 hp naturally aspirated at 9000rpm. They usually stayed together for 500 or more miles.

    According to the vid, you work at lightning breakneck speed (dontcha just wish we all could tear an engine down, and assemble it just that fast, and accurately), so you will back up in no time TJ, sry it had issues.
    Whoohoooo, Ross finally billed my Piston deposit so they are finally forging mine now, 11 weeks from end of May seems like a lifetime as I pulled the block mid January, when the lead time quote was just 3 weeks, by end of May when everything settled out at the Machine shop covid wise, and we had a clean block and parts and pcs ready to get required pre-forging measurements, and block had been line bored, race season on special and regular orders pushed out that lead time a crapload. But, the billing of the first 50 percent on July 28th was a welcome sight on the bank statement, says the CNC Machine was busy cranking em out!
    Once received and measured up, boring, honing, decking, balancing, and assembly should go a lot more quickly. Head and long block pcs are ready and waiting, as am I, to re-licence and get racing again.
    Car has been dieted and highly improved, nutted and bolted bumper to bumper inside and out.

    Uhhh. Do you ever listen to your full breakdown video after you've commentated about taking your engine apart? "Well this is a leettttle (insert some word to describe damaged)" "Worn here in the middle but it'll be fiiiine" "A bit of scraping but (probably) from contamination" (because engines should be okay to have bits of metal in the oil), describe a thoroughly boned(used and damaged) bearing (well we use a lot of timing so maybe a detonation)...we'll take a look at that (and not change it because a set of NICE coated bearings would cost you all of $100).
    You can't run like that anymore and win. People aren't showing up to the tracks in shitboxes anymore. They're showing up sharp. Their engines don't have 8 leaking exhast ports. They don't have bearings they're shrugging their shoulders over. I guess it's okay if you want to reduce your car to a bracket racer, but that dog's not hunting as it should, and you know it, John.

That engine is NOT using cast pistons cast rods cast crankshaft .. It's not using a Hydraulic camshaft .. And if they are smart it's EFI and NOT BLO THRU why because EFI can be tuned per hole per runner . you can pull timing out as needed . So whats in it is Forged everything . a good piston like Wiseco Or Diamond .. a good crank like Molnar Or Lunati good rods strong enough to absorb the brutality of 40 LBS of boost and a valve train capable of getting it done like shaft rockers good strong push rods a good oil system if not dry sump than a wet Titan Billet pump ...a good set of head with enough CFM to get er done and valve strong enough to withstand the Tulip effect ...that seems to happen with High temps & Boost numbers especially guys who over extend the life cycle .. Boosted drag motors beat the living snot out of all engine components ..the forces being applied are just crazy even at relatively easy 1800HP regions ...That is still a hurtful amount of beat down on any small inch SBC .
