  • A while back, we got a firsthand look at how a crate motor goes from testing to production. Now we’re really getting our hands dirty thanks to the folks at BluePrint Engines. We tour their engine assembly shop and get to see how an engine begins as a bare block and individual parts to become a finished crate motor. From assembling pistons and sealing oil pans to setting the timing and torquing-down cylinder heads, follow along as the BluePrint team puts a motor together.

    Just a thought; after you align the cam bearings, what might be beneficial would be to have a camera to make sure all the holes are aligned properly. It would maybe add 30 seconds to do(just an estimate).

      All the time and they are very accurate, I used to work for car manufacturer that used machines like that to torque all suspension bolts and wheels. That's where all of it was designed

    So are the engines produced for factory production? Likes of Chevrolet GM. Ford. Alongside custom or made to order engines? Does this automation mean we can get a great engine cheaper? These are the guys who build Summit Racing engines?

    Honestly not impressed. Like any other engine assembly plant. Surprised to see how little lube they put on their parts

    • @jeremyking5684
      @jeremyking5684 Год назад +2

      Don't need a bunch of lube when you prime the oil pump with drill! They probably pump oil in engine with their on pump,don't have to use engines oil pump. Alot of machine shops do it that way.
