Done a bunch of these, unfortunately was always after head bolts broke which introduced coolant into the engine so had to replace the head gaskets as well. Very good information on here guys!!!
Looking to replace my 2006 E55 AMG factory wheels with something slick like yours. If you have recommendations, please let me know. Salute to the Supreme AMG Master mechanic, Rusty.
I was planning to wait until 100k mi and having a looksie. I thought I'd be ok since my car is not an abused high miles middle east car but this one looks clean af and well cared for and still not looking good... boo
My 156 e63 has the weaker headbolt design. Is it ok to upgrade to the stronger headbolt with the stronger more material on the head than the ones you used in this video. Basically the ones without the washer but with the male heads not the original weaker female heads. Thanks
This is so valuable for the platform! Thanks baldylocks!
Love the videos. Keep them coming. Let's get some help for Rusty's bald spot!
We need to raise awareness
Awesome Content
I look forward to the new video every week !
I would love to see an m113k build.
Keep it up, and Thank You !
We have some great m113k content in the mix! Finding the time to film is the hardest challenge we have come across haha!
Great way to end my night boys🎉
Bravo 👏

Thanks man! Yes I should of stated that this method is just for an uncomprimised head gasket!
@@ModernMastersAuto you are correct sir, once a head bolt snaps it’s game over that head has to come off!
What Extraction tool is Rusty using to suck out coolant from the head? I checked the amazon store but couldn't find anything.
Mighty vac I'll make sure it's on there
does newer design m157, my 2014 E63 have tappet and cam adjuster issues? I heard the chain is upgraded.
No cams should be ok. But at 100k I would reseal the valve covers and check everything. The chains were updated on most models by 2013.
Where did you find caliper rebuild kits to do the powdercoating? 507 owner on the west coast here! Love your content!
We stock them from our vendor I'll have to see if they do online sales!
Once again Rusty playing with the lube how much does this man cost the shop in supplies 😂
A LOT!!!
Do the vrp cams wear down just as fast as factory cams
No they are welded hardened cams
6:02 “so as you can see, it’s the same height…little taller” 🤔
The base is same height but the threads are a little taller

I’m still amazed on how bad the factory cams can get.

@Alpinatom it's good to upgrade any of the old headbolts
