It's not supposed to be a complete video on how an engine is made. It's a rough look at the simple parts. It's an excellent video. So many complainers.
+Eric Wesson Yeah...I've never assembled an engine, but I assemble lots of things, and was looking at that thinking "wtf is the point of doing that when the cam isn't in?" One of those things that's so simple, if you have to tell the tech that, you need a better tech.
+aluisious yeah they completely left out the milling portion of the build where they flatten all mating surfaces such as the the cylinder heads, where the oil pan goes, etc. You would also want to install all bearing caps for when you bore the bearing locations. they do this to the crank, piston, and cam bearing locations.
adam courtney they have to make the episodes fit within a certain time period. when they have different time constraints they show more or less detail in the construction process.
He's not wrong. It's just he misses a bunch of stuff. He can't go over everything because it needs to play in a 6-8 minute period. He just went over the basics.
Interesting. I would have thought seperated journals would mean better piston firing order, but it would ad a bit of length and weight to the engine. Thank you!
NHRA sanctioned Top Fuel are forged aluminum blocks. Mostly aluminum parts, except where there is titanium, iron, and some off metal in the heads. These engines now make 8000 plus hp.
Completely agree. Not only that but these programs are aimed for general public, many of whom would get completely confused if you start talking about cam shafts etc.
cylinder liners....thought they only did that on semis for quick rebuilds (which is why i became a semi mechanic) but look at that they put em in ferarris to how nice
The Mostro Di-Potenza PF22 for 2013 has an estimated speed of 308 mph which will be tested this fall a the Lower Saxony in Germany with a 5.6 mile strait. Can't wait to see how that turns out.
Sand casting the engine is probably the most widely used way of creating metal ever. They make everything from golf club heads, turbocharger, to jet engines with it for a reason. Its better then CNC machines can do cause its poured into shape while still in a liquid state.
Vacuum pulling can also produce such irregularities, it is almost like cheating your way to perfection. The chemistry of the metal is much more important in eliminating irregularities.
Add valve cover. Then install air intake manifold and fuel injection system. But what about all the over parts? Like oh, I don't know, oil pan, alternator, distributors and spark plugs roller rockers and push rods etc etc. also they didn't tell you about priming the engine and all that other good stuff.
3:50 looks like a dual overhead cam, no pushrods. But, yeah don't forget oil pump, water pump, and power steering pumps either. Lots of omitted information.
That build a 740 PS NATURALLY aspirated engine. Just insane. Can you imagine Super/turbocharging that? Thats something else than the super/turbocharged V12 of the Ford GT.
1. Brand name. 2. The machines they used to build it are expensive as hell. 3. They used VERY nice parts; all aluminum everything. I have only rebuilt two engines (both Subaru EJ25's, one turbo, one N/A), but without the tools they had at their disposal, engines simply cannot be built to competing specifications without a ton of time and effort. And the parts put it in a different league. And that's just the engine. The rest of the car is a similar story.
Im from the US, and Ive always wondered the reverse, im a 52 year old mechanic and I was always tought aluminum --- I looked it up on world wide words and apparently its went both ways depending on what country, time period and what book you go by -
It's also important to notate that Honda, the Japanese car company that has more American built cars than Ford, Chevy, and Dodge combined, is one of the most reliable car brands out on the market now. Only two serious recalls in the companies history and neither of them caused any serious injuries. And no, I'm not a Honda fanboy. I actually drive a Ford. :P
you can spin the crank without lubricant, lubricant is only there to cool down and ease movement at high revs. if he was spinning it by hand at around 1,000rpm then that would be a problem.
I hate how many steps they miss to cram the process into a 5-minute segment. They didn't mention the machining steps after casting, and at 3:50 it jumps from just an engine block to an engine with all the ancillaries already there (alternator, belts, pumps etc). Come on how it's made! Something like this deserves at least a 15-minute special edition!
I agree highly. The s1000rr has been dominating lately. However, you were arguing with the guy in the first post as if he wouldnt of agreed with you. He was saying that a bike will beat a car, i thought you were saying that you think there is a car which would keep up
havent went to school yet but still know that they left out sooo much shit in this video...but who am i kiddin? im a back yard mech, Bought a mint '04 Sebring LXi Convertible body and that infamous 2.7 separate from a junk yard just to rebuild it as my first mechanic special car.. it it still runs and looks like new to this day..
I know these parts don't go directly from sand molding to straight bolting on the block... why don't they show ANY of the machining work done? trade secret maybe? i'm kinda disappointed it failed to show that aspect tho. o well.
I kinda wanted to see how the main caps were installed. It looked like they use a dual stud system? I wonder the torquing sequence they would have to use for that...
@serginietor the reason the ferrari has more power is not because its more high tech... it has to do with that the corvette is under powered and is no where near the limits of the motor... chevy provided a nice balance of great power and control ability...
its not dangerous like your thinking. liquid nitrogen is used in this case to make the metal contract for manufacturing purposes. basic science dictates to us that the colder something gets, the smaller it will become. So liquid nitrogen being near a -200 F will make the metal contract long enough for them to insert it into the engine. hope this helps.
• The engine block is usually made of cast iron. But in the late 1990s, engine blocks were made of plastic and other materials used in prototype cars with the aim of developing more efficient and lightweight cars. A cast iron engine block can comprise a significant proportion of the vehicle weight, it usually requires several people to be removed and worked on safely. engine block includes cylinders, cooling ducts, oil ducts • whAT ELSE CAN I WRITE ABOUT THIS MACHINE YO ENLIGHT ME WITH MORE?????
they were spraying to make sure the sand was out of the engine...no actual parts were installed yet so the air was going to flow right from the water to the intake valves anyway.
damn!!! the valve guides on my 10 year old nissan engine somehow disintegrated & naturally the fragments ended down in the combustion chamber. I was thinking of asking the mechanic to replace them, which in fact I did ... he stared me in the face & laughed. Now I know why ... :p
At 3:50 it shows two camshafts in one head, so there must be two more in the other head. I would rather have heard about those than the sand molding of the block.
Actually, I'm mistaken: 3:51. They look to be about 14mm lift. Not much duration, therefore less overlap. An emissions engine. Variable timing, probably electric. Timing chain must be exotic because it looks too small for the job. Not very knowledgeable about cavallino rampante (sp) but it's fun to speculate.
yh they are great i have an audi a4 1.9 tdi 2005 and vw sharan 1.9 tdi 2002 and they are both brilliant, also has the performance if u need some but of course its not for racing its more like for daily driving
Cast iron is heavy brittle and not steady when vibrations are put through it over long periods of time, aluminium is a material used is aerospace so i think i know why aluminum is top choice
can please someone explain to me , how the housing for the screws is made??, are they made from the sand mold? Because at 0:38 I cannot spot holes big enough for the screws. Thank you I advance and sorry for my English
me to, but on a normal car. On a ferrari a cast iron block would be a drag and would do harm to the performance and balance of the car. The good thing is that the cylinders are dismountable and replacable, most cast iron blocks you can't replace the cylinders
i think the prices range depending on the purity or something, but everyone gets like 40cents per pound or so. but they sell it for a lot more... otherwise those recycling companies wouldnt be in bussiness
Damn,equipment like this would be awesome to own! Imagine being able to cast your own engines?
I mean... you can make most of it with sand and a forge, the hardest would be the crankshaft. For that you need a cnc
It's not supposed to be a complete video on how an engine is made. It's a rough look at the simple parts. It's an excellent video. So many complainers.
oh cool it one of those quad overhead cam camless engine ive heard about from every how its made video showing engines ever
+Eric Wesson Yeah...I've never assembled an engine, but I assemble lots of things, and was looking at that thinking "wtf is the point of doing that when the cam isn't in?"
One of those things that's so simple, if you have to tell the tech that, you need a better tech.
+KSI SubSonic They were probably installing the cam caps ready for line boring because none of that was mentioned in the video.
+aluisious yeah they completely left out the milling portion of the build where they flatten all mating surfaces such as the the cylinder heads, where the oil pan goes, etc. You would also want to install all bearing caps for when you bore the bearing locations. they do this to the crank, piston, and cam bearing locations.
adam courtney they have to make the episodes fit within a certain time period. when they have different time constraints they show more or less detail in the construction process.
It's actually Dual Overhead Cam, 2 cams per cylinder head
wowwwwww, a correct video where they actually show the parts being cast. clap clap thank you. Its a frickin miracle
You skipped the part where they machine the parts after casting.. pretty vital info
I don't know about that, but I highly applaud you for your name selection. Looks like we knew something, ehh?? Ha!
not to mention they were calling the valve seats the valve guides....
Yes!
And they were calling the sleeves cylinder liners.
///M The BMW Furry ///M same thing
@@mike5162 yup
And the engine the engine who fingered
For me, Heaven would be sitting in a room somewhere bymyself tearing down and rebuilding engines like this one.
I'm guessing it's Nitrogen rather than Hydrogen.
1:45 AZOTO = nitrogen in italian :)
Lol, thank you I thought so!
Eddiecurrent2000 And Valve seats rather than Valve guides
Rick James And "molten aluminium" rather than "molten aluminum" ;)

I like the valve guides, Those valves must be GIGANTIC.
How it's made is always so full of errors it makes you wonder how they make how it's made...

0:50 it is so beautiful when new engine is being born
Cast iron is still quite common. Most gasoline engines in light duty trucks, even down to 4 cylinders, are cast in iron for improved durability.
You've evidently never owned a FIAT. The head gasket on the Punto is legendary for letting that happen.
Woow proses yang luar biasa, jadi tambah wawasan, terimakasih👍

Completely agree. Not only that but these programs are aimed for general public, many of whom would get completely confused if you start talking about cam shafts etc.
To replace the alternator, you have to dismantle the intake manifold first. What a brilliant design.
cylinder liners....thought they only did that on semis for quick rebuilds (which is why i became a semi mechanic) but look at that they put em in ferarris to how nice
definitely not liquid hydrogen. that would be suicidal and expensive. definitely nitrogen which actually does boil at -196C as shown
The Mostro Di-Potenza PF22 for 2013 has an estimated speed of 308 mph which will be tested this fall a the Lower Saxony in Germany with a 5.6 mile strait. Can't wait to see how that turns out.
fucking amazing. cars are beautiful machines. the amount of engineering put into it is mind blowing.
Wow.. A lot of work goes into these..
Sand casting the engine is probably the most widely used way of creating metal ever. They make everything from golf club heads, turbocharger, to jet engines with it for a reason. Its better then CNC machines can do cause its poured into shape while still in a liquid state.
That moment he brings the intake manifold... i jizzed!
Ultra high performance hand made engines... can never go wrong with that.
They didn't show when they balanced the crankshaft!
+Flash Man They didn't show many things. They didn't show any of the machining. I guess trade secrets.
+Adrian Trosclair "How it's assembled"*
some corrections:
1:44 that was liquid AZOT. not hydrogen
2:14 he is verifying coolant passages, not air intake.
This is a work of art!
I was mad they didnt show that, i was waiting for it.

Like oh, I don't know, oil pan, alternator, distributors and spark plugs roller rockers and push rods etc etc. also they didn't tell you about priming the engine and all that other good stuff.
also didnt mention bearings........ pretty sure he put the crank in without beari gs.
iiR4MP4G3 Oh man, who needs bearings anyways, right? just let the crank spin loosely like a hot dog spiraling down a hallway...
3:50 looks like a dual overhead cam, no pushrods. But, yeah don't forget oil pump, water pump, and power steering pumps either. Lots of omitted information.
that wasan+t fuel injection system :)) what you saw there was the Carter Gase Hose atached to admision
Magic powder?
Well that was beyond simplified.

cast iron, aluminum and steel all fuck up when "they get too hot". So now somebody mentioned it, thanks.
Excsellent video on how engines are made...!
"attach fuel injectors"- shows attachment of breather hoses lmao
you can spin the crank without lubricant, lubricant is only there to cool down and ease movement at high revs. if he was spinning it by hand at around 1,000rpm then that would be a problem.
You owe me a 10 second car!
At 1:20 they should probably mention the part where the block gets machined to spec. That's kind of, you know, important.
1:49
Liquid Hydrogen?
I think they meant Nitrogen, Hydrogen would act a bit different
@gruneygunnar and iron blocks dont expand near as much wich alows for larger strokes and cranks unlike aluminum wich expands more than twice as much
@94tbird The only advantage is less weight, an Iron block is stronger so it will hold more power but it will also weight more.
I hate how many steps they miss to cram the process into a 5-minute segment. They didn't mention the machining steps after casting, and at 3:50 it jumps from just an engine block to an engine with all the ancillaries already there (alternator, belts, pumps etc).

Plus, Ferrari has trade secrets, you know.
Not Valve guides, they were valve seats.
yh of course, a lot but i had in mind circuit racing lol, but ur right for drag its good

wtf... is made with alloy
WTF plastic engine block? moron
and the coolant passages were also called air intake passages !
They make it look so easy,
Great looking engine.
es una obra de arte esos motores.......
@donone56 They had engines before them. The first automobile internal combustion engine was built by a Frenchman in 1862, way before the Wright Bros.
Anyone else notice how damaged/scratched the head was when they were checking the valves? and how he spins the crank without any lubrication?
I like operation with the hammer :)
they were spraying to make sure the sand was out of the engine...no actual parts were installed yet so the air was going to flow right from the water to the intake valves anyway.
They completely skip the part where they machine the parts after sand casting. LAZY
Agree, give me my 5 minutes back!
I was expecting some intellectual masturbation here. :)
murmaider2 they dont skip it, the factory dont want to show everything due to secret patented stuff
+Jesper Lian lmao theres nothing secret about milling down a casted engine part

damn!!! the valve guides on my 10 year old nissan engine somehow disintegrated & naturally the fragments ended down in the combustion chamber. I was thinking of asking the mechanic to replace them, which in fact I did ... he stared me in the face & laughed. Now I know why ... :p
Yep new head at that point, assuming the fragments didn't damage the block itself. More than likely they did but hey it's worth checking out.
it seems like at 1:17 after the wash they drill and tap the holes needed for the screws and bolts.
At 3:50 it shows two camshafts in one head, so there must be two more in the other head. I would rather have heard about those than the sand molding of the block.
Nice S13 you got there bro.

maybe the video shows only that moment, in which the guy tests those water passages only but the speaker talks wrong or saw wrong =D
do they play this music while they are building the engine? if they do that would make your shift seem really intense
As long as its not a Yamaha or Honda its cool, everything else is pretty decent right off the assembly line.
Quoted from the video.
"Every part of the engine is made out of aluminum. Expensive, but light weight."

The good thing is that the cylinders are dismountable and replacable, most cast iron blocks you can't replace the cylinders
