Guys I appreciate the concern about the piston size measurement. I tried editing that part of the video with a text over with the explanation but gave me video errors. The calculatordid not take the 0 into the measurement size. It shows 3.46 instead of 3.046. The result number still shows the same in the range that I am working on. Which is still 0.01730 instead of 0.17030. Thanks for looking out guys. I really appreciate the support 💪😬🔥
This is how RUclips should be With explaining thing awesome job Alberto! Your a Huge inspiration I’ve been watching all you guys for 2 1/2+ years now crazy how far you and your team have came.
Firstly, I just want to send greetings all the way from Johannesburg, South Africa. Then, secondly, this is a lot more informative that other videos I have watched. This is AWESOME Alberto, and thanks for making the effort to show the build in so much detail. Can't wait for more... DOUBLE THUMBS-UP!!!!
@@Baksteen_Express idk, I never done or seen a engine rebuild before, just this vídeo of Alberto. I need to know the lubrificants, how to torque the bolts, and many more. My experience in the motor is only timing belt and water pump change, turbo change, engine out of the car, but I never opened an engine, so its a bit scary for me
@@imnota thank you for the information! what i like about alberto engine videos are that I already watch alberto, so it's much easier to watch and learn something, when you don't watch a channel and you're watching only for the education, sometimes it's kinda boring, but thank you!
So, you replace the main bolts for ARP main studs and you don`t line hone the mains or at least check the clearances on final assembly. Great Engine Build.
Great Job Alberto! Very detailed and you covered what a lot of people miss like thrust bearings etc. please keep just as much detail on the upcoming videos!
You can add fine paint pigment + oil mixure on the end of the socket so you can visually see the bolts that have been torqued. Same as paint pen marking bolts to see if the bolts have lossened/moved
Went u have 1 month of free times to do video. Man i watched u since 2015 u didnt talk too much like this but i think i like it. U explain everything 😊
@@imnota one thing that threw me off was it came back from machine shop with factory main cap bolts installed then later shows caps with L19 or 625 studs. I was curious if he had it line bored/honed and was just using the factory bolts to hold the caps in or? Because that would definitely make a difference unless he got really lucky.
Alberto BIGBOOST love watching the videos!!!! Hear in australia we have barra's !!The Australian 2JZ!!! Maybe you can do a video compering the two. Would love to hear what you think about the barra engine and how it compares to the 2JZ and the RB. Keep up the all-some work and stay safe..
The lubrication oil holes on the crankshaft journals doesn't seen to be chamfered like Pro Engine Builders do. By the way Alberto , do you know why it's recommended to increase piston rings gap in function of the engine potential output?
Are the CP carillo pisotns + BC rods good upgrade compared to stock 2JZ-GE non vvti pistons and rods? My block is going to the machine shop so I think I should replace the rotating assembly.
He may have had the id of the bore and od of the crank from the machine shop and knew what bearings to use. I think I'd still plastigauge. Unless you have the fancy tools.
You didnt mention the piston rings Marks, the mark indicates the orientation the ring should be installed, usually the mark should be facing up when installed.
Alberto! Great video. Only thing I didn't see you do was debur the rings after you ground them down to size. Also you might want to lubricate the ring compressing tool as well since rings have to slide through it before sliding inside the cylinder walls. Very little things that go a long way but you got this thing on lock!! Pizza look good too! Lol
Hey Larry, yes that is a good thing to do. I hand file the edge of the ring after cutting. And I also use atf to clean and lubricate the rings before assembly. Some stuff I dont cover on camera all the builds. Ring compressor tool I just spray with some wd40 💪 I’m glad you are looking out. There are times where I have missed things and only notice from the comments before its too late 😬
Alberto BigBoost!! Not to be an ass but @ 9minutes in, you were figuring your piston ring gap and said 3.406(your piston diameter) but typed 3.46!!! I THINK THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE... just hoping you caught the mistake!! Love the videos and I myself am currently rebuilding my engine and want to be on top of everything and checking and double checking everything!! Much Love brother!! Check that ring gap again!!1
Bro I think you forget to mention or to do a 90 degrees for the crankshaft and the connecting rod thanks a lot bro fo the video keep it up and aoswom work 💪💪
Put of curiosity! I'm doing a 1.5 single turbo build (precision 6266/1300ID injectors, AEM Infinity standalone). Using 2jzgte rods and pistons....What piston rings should I ask my machine shop to give them certain gap numbers?
is this a VVTI GE Motor with GTE compression forged pistons? still a ge head correct? hard to find the exact info confirming the question, but i dont see the oil squirters, and it says "GTE Head Pistons" on the piston sheet. was wondering how something like this would work so u can lower compression and raise boost. trying to find a cheap 2jz set up and i think this might be my route
3.406 on piston sheet but you typed in 3.46 on I phone. Hope your ring gaps wouldn’t be affected by a typo. Surely it’s too small to make a difference ?

Alberto BIGBOOST what about con rod clearance?
Did you measure bearing clearances before you assembled the bottom end?
Alberto BIGBOOST there you go people!
Alberto, Curious why you got Away from M52 Block.. LMK
3.406 u mean. Did another typo in this response. but good you did it right!
the bore size is 3.406 but you did the calculation with 3.46 in the video. I dunno if it matters a lot
Youri Dv still ends up at .017 but good catch I saw that too!
saw it too
Came to say the same thing!
I saw it too....
I was trying to make a title over it but premiere kept giving me an error. The measurement is the same. 0.17030 instead of 0.1730
More knowledge about 2jz , can't get any better.. love this alberto
This is how RUclips should be With explaining thing awesome job Alberto! Your a Huge inspiration I’ve been watching all you guys for 2 1/2+ years now crazy how far you and your team have came.
I really appreciate the videos from proven engine builders/mechanics

This is AWESOME Alberto, and thanks for making the effort to show the build in so much detail. Can't wait for more... DOUBLE THUMBS-UP!!!!
Dude, you are so chill and explain everything in understandable manner !
Mr big boost I am blessed to be able to watch this my mechanic school is canceled and this is very helpful for my learing
1x of my Top 5 channels on RUclips period!
the music at the end was magnificent !
You are the man Alberto ! I’ve saved this video to help me when I have to pulled my engine and see why it’s dropped in pressure ! Thank you 👌👌
I wish there were builders like you on TV. When I was younger there were crap shows on Speed and FuelTV.
cant wait till this engine is fully built 🔥🔥🔥
And i can't wait for more rebuilding videos!
Soon I'll need to rebuild my CA18DET and I would like to build it myself with 0 experience 🤔😱
@@BossGarage measuring and preparing is the most important part. The assembly is pretty easy lol

bro i dont know jack shit about building engines and you still manage to get me to watch the whole video idk why lol
Wish i had a homie like Alberto. Nice build bro!
Thank you for this. I was going to pay someone to do it for me but i feel more confident now. Thank you for the detailed video.
So, you replace the main bolts for ARP main studs and you don`t line hone the mains or at least check the clearances on final assembly. Great Engine Build.
can you put the bottom thrust bering first and then put crankshaft in?
I dont own a vehicle with a JZ motor in it. probably never will. I still love this content.
Great Job Alberto! Very detailed and you covered what a lot of people miss like thrust bearings etc. please keep just as much detail on the upcoming videos!
That tip of taping the ring compressor so on point.
Very calming video to watch. You’re showing great patience and care, good luck with it all mate!
You can add fine paint pigment + oil mixure on the end of the socket so you can visually see the bolts that have been torqued. Same as paint pen marking bolts to see if the bolts have lossened/moved
your channel among others made me comfortable enough to buy my own 2J project. I'll come back when i make 500hp
Hows that project goin
@@penisenlargement2319 really good actually i have a fully built longblock and am sourcing a turbo
@@diabolowho good to hear that. Your definatly gonna hit 500hp especialy with that turbo
Alberto great video!!👍✌💪I like how you are showing every detail, not like alot of builders that jump of how's done!!! Keep it up
only the best content out here from big boost
Wow, looks super fresh, nice start to an awesome finish.
Hi Alberto could you do a video covering how to messure clearances for bearings so u can decide weather u run std size bigger and so forth
jonny burns I can do one in another engine
Love ur videos man ...can I ask you to make a video on how to choose what compression ratio to choose on engine rebuilds
I'm in way over my head but this is just absolutely fascinating to watch!
Would you consider making a video on your recommended engine overhauling tools and equipment? That would be super cool!
Someone needs to make a 2JZ pizza
For alberto
Ciao ...job awesome video ..you make it seem easy to mount an engine 😀💪
Very informative & imo your best vid so far big boost! Way to go. Thanks
The techangle torque wrench has a counter in the Rh top corner, so easy to double check and get that extra confidence
Do mechanics keep a bottle of that red lube in their bedside drawers?
Bahaha
aussiesimmo I have a whole case
@@ALBERTOBIGBOOST foreplay in a bottle.
Have a bottle in my toolbox at the shop, a bottle in the car, a bottle in my tool bag, a few bottles in the house, even a few in the shed
Awesome Alberto, you make it look simple
Loved this video! Would love to see more detailed assembly videos.
Great video man and very much informative! I encourage you to continue doing more DIY videos.
What about the rod bearing clearance and bolts stretch
You entered 3.46 instead of 3.406, but it came out to about the same spec, .01703 is the actual spec
Went u have 1 month of free times to do video. Man i watched u since 2015 u didnt talk too much like this but i think i like it. U explain everything 😊
You da man Alberto. Real automotive RUclips channel
Sooo arp main studs. Did you get the mains honed for this? I’m reason yes and no you don’t have too.
Spins as smooth as a baby! That's my new saying 😂.
Keep it up man! Love your work. It also shows us how to build great quality engines!
This has to be one of the most concise and detailed engine assembly videos ever...well done!
Can’t wait for the final results! 👏🏻
what happended to messuring the bearing clearances? you'll be rebuilding soon, but atleast it gives you content
The crank literally came back from the machine shop and was measured to be within spec so bearing clearances are too.
I think he's built quite a few engines in his time especially 2jz's.
@@imnota one thing that threw me off was it came back from machine shop with factory main cap bolts installed then later shows caps with L19 or 625 studs. I was curious if he had it line bored/honed and was just using the factory bolts to hold the caps in or? Because that would definitely make a difference unless he got really lucky.
@@s302jzget well it wouldn't hold unless it was still threaded for factory no? Those others would never fit enough for someone not to notice
@@obxurv ARP studs thread right into the factory main cap bolt holes with no mods.
Your the best thank you so much. Much help how do you know what order the pistons go
Damn this is giving me confidence to build my 2jz myself instead of just having the machine shop do it. Would save me a lot of money too on labor.
He skipped ally clearances were never gone over and are the first things to cause failure
@@mk2vrt yeah that’s the part I’m nervous about lol. I wish someone would make a detailed video showing that.
Thanks for the walkthrough, pizza was a top moment

You said 3.406 but typed 3.46 on the calculator.
It shouldn't change the .017 gap that he needs. But good catch
Stuff all difference
I love when you do these! I also watched when you did this with the m5x/s5x hybrid build and it was dope! Thanks!
Great informative video always nice to watch them from you Alberto keep up your excellent work 👍
Awesome video dude, just subscribed to your channel, definitely the most detailed one I’ve seen so far !
And yes the math still works on the ring gap, I too have a PH in maph, thanks for the great video Alberto.
Awesome video!! Very detailed and up to subject, i love it!!!
Hola buen día. Puedo usar los pistones del 2jz Ge . I ponerles las bielas del 2jzGTE .

Esoooo Alberto!!!! Tan Bueno que eres explicando.

this video made me want to build my jz now that going in my stang. going to follow the exact formula you did too so i know it works.
Kris Angus the krabby patty Formula
Alberto BIGBOOST does that make me Plankton trying to steal it lol 😅
Yo this video was great! Thanks for putting this knowledge out to us man.
How come you didn’t check the clearances between the bearings and the crank?
He may have had the id of the bore and od of the crank from the machine shop and knew what bearings to use. I think I'd still plastigauge. Unless you have the fancy tools.
hey ALBERTO I was ending from your knowledge what car would your pick a skyline r32 or a EVO you tell me due to you have worked on both
Hey Alberto do you have to measure the clearance on the bearings or do they come ready ?
that ring gap seems very tight for big boost application?
I absolutely love how you make your videos of motor builds everything has such detail
You didnt mention the piston rings Marks, the mark indicates the orientation the ring should be installed, usually the mark should be facing up when installed.
Great video you should definitely do more how to videos new subscriber feels good here 🖤❤️🥳
Why not swap out the OEM main caps for billet main caps since your already there?
What about all the bearing clearances, Alberto?
looking awsome alberto its gonna be a beast
16:40 - why do you have to put the ring gap on one side and the other on the other side ?
With normal engine operation, don't piston rings move ?
On stock rods it has an arrow pointing to the front. Do aftermarket rods have anything like that or it doesn't matter?
Alberto! Great video. Only thing I didn't see you do was debur the rings after you ground them down to size. Also you might want to lubricate the ring compressing tool as well since rings have to slide through it before sliding inside the cylinder walls.

@@ALBERTOBIGBOOST 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯👍🏼
cylinder block deck height? piston compression height? connecting rod length to stroke ratio? "shiny and Nice". static balance, dynamic balance, bob weight?Blue printing? Engine Builder?
Can you please do the same video but for 1jz as well?
Wait big boost!
Y'all aren't getting your pistons coated?
Alberto BigBoost!! Not to be an ass but @ 9minutes in, you were figuring your piston ring gap and said 3.406(your piston diameter) but typed 3.46!!!
I THINK THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE... just hoping you caught the mistake!! Love the videos and I myself am currently rebuilding my engine and want to be on top of everything and checking and double checking everything!! Much Love brother!! Check that ring gap again!!1
Bro I think you forget to mention or to do a 90 degrees for the crankshaft and the connecting rod thanks a lot bro fo the video keep it up and aoswom work 💪💪
Do you guys run oil squirters on GE blocks? Are they difficult to mill out?
Can we make a petition to get Big Boost a Lil Ceasars sponsor to ensure he has all the engine building fuel he needs? Lol
Alberto, are you going to measure the connecting rod bolts stretch? Do you know whats torque to yield?
I love these detailed videos
Are ACL racing bearings better than king racing bearings I build my ka with king racing bearings just curious
Love your content did you check the crank and rode bearing clearance or did you just slap the new ones on
Nice music and shots
Put of curiosity! I'm doing a 1.5 single turbo build (precision 6266/1300ID injectors, AEM Infinity standalone). Using 2jzgte rods and pistons....What piston rings should I ask my machine shop to give them certain gap numbers?
thank you ALBERTOO.... this is so detailed...

i didnt see you install the 2nd split ring into the end of the rod going through the piston but i did take my plate out to the kitchen
Did you get any main tunnel distortion from using studs instead of the bolts
3.406 on piston sheet but you typed in 3.46 on I phone. Hope your ring gaps wouldn’t be affected by a typo. Surely it’s too small to make a difference ?
Hi, is it ok to buy a use crankshaft, for a brand new 2jz gte bare block ?
So beautiful... you’re an artist! 👍😎
Any particular reason why the main caps were torqued to 70. When. Arp recommends 60ft lbs
Frankie Soto L19 material not arp2000 😬
When are you bringing out the new video
