Heck yeah dude, mood and tunes are great. I'm doing a complete resto on a mk1 TT and you've given some great insight and advice that's been helpful, so thank you!
i really like the chill vibe in your Videos. The light and music fit very well for the Vibe you are trying to achieve (i think). keep it up Even as you broke the bit, you still were very chill
Better use for example Elring 292.011, it includes even assembly tool. Usually this need to be replaced one time in normal use. Cost in Europe ~25€. And lot easier replace that seal only.
Maybe could you talk in the next video about the hydraulic lifters? I heard few made mistake with them, because builders wasn't bleed them out a bit and ended up bend the valves at first start.
This is interesting - do you have any more information about this that I can look into? There really isnt any reason for this to happen short of improper installation or startup procedures. Assuming timing is sound and everything being installed correctly, the hydraulic lifters need to be pressurized. This is done automatically when you crank the engine for a few seconds to build oil pressure, before you crank it over for startup. Since the lifters have a built in check valve, once pressurized, they cut the slack and clearance properly and eliminates any slack before you start it up. So timing or install issues aside, I dont see where the lifters themselves might come in.
I ended up getting the 034 motorsport RMS and kinda regret it cuz the holes didnt even line up with the holes in the block, had to machine them out, and as far as i know, i dont think it has replaceable lip seals either. lesson learned.
Ooof thats tough to hear. I nearly considered the 034 unit, but I have not really taken much interest in their products - glad I didnt. Fit and finish of the iABED unit is top tier. Very well made!
looking good brother. was a nice way to wake up sipping some coffee.
Very nice.. Keep on, keeping on!
Great video again man!
Seeing it all come together and then the comparisons is awesome, I bet you’re stoked
Rough break on the socket man! Beautiful engine! It was satisfying watching it come together.
I like the video, I just wish it were slightly brighter.
Rough break indeed! And noted on the lighting!
Hell yea man, I’m looking to build the motor in my Mk1 TT soon 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Even as you broke the bit, you still were very chill
Thank you, I really appreciate it! Yes - it was indeed a moment of "keep calm, its fine, its just the bit..."
The vibes in this video are immaculate.

Bro lights, turn on some lights , I can't see what you're building.
Curious, what are you watching on?
I would have been infinitely less calm when that bit blew in half. 😂🫡
LOOOL - if ever there was an example of internal screaming...that was it.
