Everything It Takes To Machine a 1968 Chrysler 440 V-8 Engine

- Опубликовано: 13 июн 2024
- We're back working on Snowball's 1970's-era dirt track racer by taking our 440 V-8 Chrysler engine to the machine shop. Jon at Apex Competition Engines has taken on the task of walking through the process and getting everything ready for us. Hopefully this vintage race car is back on the track sooner rather than later!

So glad to see redline rebuilds back.
Yes! I was beginning to wonder what might have gone wrong.
Yay!!!
Me too brother
@@cinsc556Subaru ptsd. 😂😂
Amen!
Good to see Davin back
Where was he ?
This, in my opinion, is some of Hagerty's BEST content. Super happy to see Redline Rebuilds again !!😃
So good to see a young person so talented and taking great care and pride in their work. Good job Jon!
Great to see young guys doing this type of work.
Really enjoyed every second of this video. Great to see Davin back in front of the camera. The engine guy was very clear on the what, where and why of each step.
The satisfaction from watching old parts become better than new it endless. It's so watchable! I love it.
You're so lucky to have found a young guy who knows his stuff. Around where I live the old timers have retired, or died, and no has replaced them.
I was going to say man. He is a gold mine. Guy has very good knowledge.
Not because young guys aren't interested, but because there's probably very little business in rebuilding engines.
He won’t have much of a future if the EV agenda goes into full force in the next decade. And if governments regulations start enforcing strict policies on internal combustion engines limitations. Well good luck. Government can do what ever they want. People like him will just have to eat it.
missed seeing these engine builds!
...SO nice to see a young man good at his job and proud of his work!!! Jon at Apex: you rock!
Huge amount of skilled work there. Not to be underestimated
I really enjoy this channel. It shows the reality of how much work goes into these projects, and the level of expertise and attention to detail required. No neck tattoos, silly diallogue, gratuitous chrome.
This is by far my favorite Hagerty's series. So glad to see it back!
fantastic, Davin.
you' re the best👍🏻👍🏻
So happy you are working on this car again!!!
As a retired machinist after my 42nd year in the business, why are there no safety glasses? Love the content anyway! Good to see John has safety glasses.
Probably likes to have his eye drilled, it only took me once! Lol
Finally good content on Hagerty🙏 thats why I came here. Looking forward to watch the progress!
I agree, Davin's content is my only reason for watching Hagerty.
He's BACK!!!! I'm so happy 😊
☺Dude, whoever is making the Hagerty videos. Umm we love you. ❤😄
Been sooo long, glad my favorite series is back
Thank you Hagerty for this Redline Rebuild episode. Such a wealth of knowledge with Davin, Jon and all involved in this series.
This was the best episode of Redline Rebuilds in awhile! Seems like a great machine shop.
Glad to see you back in the shop getting your work done.
As someone who spent most of my life as a machinist and building my own engines I really enjoyed seeing the types of machines and setups. I recently used two very experienced machine shops to build two engines. Both had years experience but not much with Chrysler engines and when I picked up the cylinder heads they had no clue as to how or why they should get the valve stems the same height. They both said there was no specifications for valve stem height and left them uneven. Seeing how that was achieved made me feel like I knew more than the builder producing Chevy and Ford race engines professionally. The only thing I didn’t see was align boring the mains. Great video and I’d love to see more when performing extra tricks for oil return, pumps and whatever! This will be a lost skill very soon it seems….
The nut pull was poetry in motion. Great job on an iconic muscle car champ. Thanks very much.
Recline rebuilds is the only content on Hagerty I watch
Yesssssss!!! Davin’s back.
A thing of beauty.
Glad to see Davin back at it.
OMG!! My favourite RUclips show is back! I thought hagerty had ditched it…
This was a fun episode! I could watch automotive machine work all day long. Hagertys has one of the best car channels on here!
Been following Hagerty for years now and each content is just as amazing as the previous ones!
So true, they really are doing car stuff on another level. 🤠🙌
@@CheesusSVT yep! You are absolutely right!
Lets go! Redline rebuilds! It’s back!
Love that redline rebuilds are back!
Finally davin is back, after a very long waiting for the content, Nice 👍
Excellent episode. I have 3 of those 440’s out in my garage and one half built already. This and all the previous videos are definitely motivation to get back at it.
Finally we get to see a Redline Rebuilds episode😍
Excellent example of how skilled professionals make a difference in automotive care.
So satisfying to watch and learn more!
Good to see you back on, your videos are the best of Hagerty.
Perfect video! Miss it long time. Thanks a lot!
This is like therapy to watch, love every second!
Finally you are back, I really love your videos about the assembly of engines!!!!
I've been waiting a long time to see this video come out. Keep up the great work Davin and we are anxious to see the race car come back to life!
Fantastic ! Nice to see a REAL Machine Shop still doing it right resurrecting the classic Engines !
I still use my Storm 85B, Sunnen CK10 and CH100 as well.... Van Norman 777S4.... 10x50 Table Mill for 3D Fast Cut Head and V/Seat work and Turner Balancing.
The Kid is Good. That finished Block and Heads look priceless.
Of all the jobs I've had in my life, my time working in an automotive machine shop was a real joy, even though I made less than $2 an hour. I particularly enjoyed fitting wrist pins to rods. I like this young man's approach to his work, especially how he cleans up after each step. Good shop for sure.
Sure glad you guys put tape over that brand marking so we didn't know they were ..... brand micrometers! :D
This is really great content. Have wanted to see more details on an engine rebuild project, for years. These hosts are great communicators!
Great to see Davin back and great vid! Can’t wait to see the finished product!
We´re missing you, Davin, welcome back
It's a great moment. Tank you!!!!
It's always good to see a Hagerty video featuring Davin!
Also, I'm looking forward to the development of this project.^^
I'm so glad to see you Davin!!😊 I needed some good RUclips without the politics!☺️
This man is a national treasure please continue these forever until I die at a ripe old age
I had always heard blueprinted and balanced. But have never seen this done on a video! Thanks for sharing !
💯👊👍
This engine rebuilding is a true tradesman skill . like a stone carver or a woodwright. There are those that do it, and then there are those that do it right.
I would trust that young man with my machine work needs. Great job!
Relative to other content on Hagerty, these are the most fun to watch. Davin is a master mechanic who finds some great machining shops to film in. The videographer does a fine job too. Looking forward to seeing this 440 rip around a track.
It's so nice seeing a pro do their thing. When one has the correct tools, one can literally move mountains.
Thank you for sharing,glad to see red line rebuilt , always a pleasure watch your video and i learn a lot 👍👍👍👍
I wonder, how many man hours is it to do an average job like this. No cameras, no extra conversation. Just a skilled machinist start to finish?
I do wish I'd have paid more attention in machine shop instead of screwing around.
Thank you for this!
Thanks, everyone, for what looks like a great rebuild! Looking very forward to the future episodes! ✌️❤️🙂🇨🇦
Glad to see Redline Rebuilds back.
Finally, a new RRU!
This and Barn Find Hunter are the two best of Hagerty's content .
Yeeeees!!! Redline rebuilds, great to see, this is what I came here to HAGERTY!!!!
I love to see professionals doing their things. I could not do what you do, but I can appreciate what you do. Thank you.
Man,…..I thought Redline Rebuilds was never coming back! Sure am glad I was wrong.
Thanks Davin and John. Was cool to see the process. Redline Rebuilds Rules, preserving history.
That man is a serious artist
Concentricity is a must in most machining prosess!😎😉🧐
Welcome back! We've missed you!
I really enjoy watching this process thank you 😊
Finally!.. sorry guys but I only Hagerty for the Redline rebuilds, good to see
Glad to see you back, sir
We're back babyyyy!
This guy is a master. Very impressive
Apex does such a nice job with the machining. I’ve had the pleasure of helping another engine builder tune some engines on Apex’s dyno and it was such a fun experience.
😊. Looking forward to seeing that old race car on the track.
I was just thinking about this series earlier, wondering when we were gonna get our next build. I’m super glad to see y’all again!
Man.... I missed so much that introduction: "Hey, this is David with Hagerty and Redline rebuilds"
I wish I could take a block and heads into a machine shop and get them all done in a day!!
Thank you all for the educational content.
I subscribe to Hagerty for this man. The other stuff you guys notify me of, meh. But Davin? He is gold. Redline!!!
I have been missing the redline rebuilds 👍cheers for update
I love how the young buck knows all the details. "put those in the freezer so they go in better." He's done this more than once. Love it.
awesome to see this back
I missed this so much.
Thanks, RLR Team…your production & product is unmatched in the YT Car Culture World.
I enjoy all of Davin & Crew’s productions & have missed the RLR series. I get that the boys may’ve burnt out by repetition & variety is the life spice, so it’s cool to see them hitting this 440 for the ole racer. I bet it‘ll go together & purr smoothly with all this Pro machining & prep work…unless the distributor is 180° out *wink
Thanks Again, Dudes
Wellcome back Davin!
This machinist knows his business.
So nice watch rebuild vid
hey red line is back, let's gooooo
Is Redline Rebuilds coming back. I miss the weekly videos that Dave was doing . I think it would be great to see some of the cars and trucks from WILL IT RUN come into the shop and restored for
Hagerty to auction off. that would keep Dave busy and the fans happy!!!
Best big block gas engines ever.
Those engine make such good power.
Jon is AMAZING 🦾🔥
Loved the fight against the rogue dowel-pin :D
I do watch a few of these car shows. Seeing a young machinist is pretty wild. All the car shows have geriatrics! God bless them, but seeing a young person is just cool.
Brilliant to see you again, great video
