A good idea i learned from Uncle Tony's Garage is using gasoline instead of parts cleaner. It's cheaper and in some instances works better. I really appreciate you documenting your progress.
I started using acetone that I had laying around. That seemed to work. I appreciate you watching
Damn. That machine shop you took to went crazy on painting the whole block. They must not have much homda coming in.
When I was in their shop 95% of the blocks n heads they had sitting on the shelf (completed work) was American v6 and v8 engines .I guess that should have been a sign ...
That's a good upgrade on the gear with the pin and woodruff key. You for sure have the cleanest engine on the block. I worked at a tune up shop in the 70's. Part of the shop was rented to a mechanic who did larger projects. I can't tell you how disappointed I was to see his sloppy work, evident in part by his over use of silicon. It looked so unprofessional. I questioned his method and he told me "more was better". He was one of those guys you learned from by NOT following his examples. You on the other hand set some nice examples. Clean, orderly and common sense work. Well done.
Thank goodness you caught the issue with the spray paint. I really appreciate you sharing all everything you're going through on this build. I learn from all the hiccups 😅
watchin from uk loving the build mate 👍🏻 🏴
Thank you 💪
Great play by play...keep it up....very interesting.
Thanks for watching
I was going to put money on the timing chain making that noise, being new. Or soming under the cover.
😂 " im pretty confident that i bent my valves when i hit them with a hammer." MERCH❤? would make a great t shirt.
Lets hope that noise doesnt come back. Maybe hand crank it a bunch.
Honestly looks like a blessing, with the way that paint would have absolutely clogged your pick up filter
Ha! Looking back at it ,that is a pretty funny thing to say lol. I bent it hitting it with a hammer...no shit 🤣. Yeah I'm glad I decided to tear it apart. Fingers crossed crossed that the issue is resolved
That metallic paint is downright scary to see in the oil. Dont blame you for being paranoid. I would run a pcv though.
I see alot of people mentioning the pcv being blocked off so I'm going to find a way to reinstall it. I ordered the part already
For stuck keepers I use a hammer and give the valve tip a couple of solid taps.
I personally like the c clamp style of valve spring compressor that holds the valve closed as this works better for stuck keepers.
I'm not sure on the K series if it's only the gasket holes that are oversized or if the intake bolts holes are.
When I port match gaskets where the actual intake can move around I fit a couple of locating bushes.
Usually it requires drilling out the intake holes first and then press in some suitably sized bronze bushes.
This way you know everytime the intake bolts on it's exactly aligned.
Yes, you hear what I am saying LOL!
Broooo I want one of those fans. 😂😂
🤣 it's pretty neat
Use a socket on the bottom of valve where is so slightly open nd hit it n it will pop the keepers lose 👌🏾
Thank you 💪
So much to know! So many things... Being a great mechanic is like being a surgeon. Props Dude- is that head ported and polished? Just curious.
No, the head is completely stock. Only the intake manifold is ported 👍
I was going to put money on your timing chain with that noise. Or something really close by.
"😂 im confident that i bent the valve by hitting it with a hammer"
After all this, I hope it solves the noise and it's not a throwout bearing of something else.
People are saying the vtc solenoid that causing the noise and or the haltech software having a glitch. I'm hoping it gets resolved also. I did replace those parts . Fingers crossed
Put a socket over the keepers hit the socket (de key)
Thanks for the tip
Very Nice Cleaning, Looks Good. Did You Clean Out The Oil Pressure Switch?
Yes ,that git cleaned out. That will get installed in the next video 👍
Check back side of bearings and make sure you didn't spin any bearings
No bearings spun, they all looked good 👍
Those old piston ring clamps are not the same just cause it dose the same it’s not..the taper piston tool is night n day hella better just because of ring clocking..hope u clocked them rings too👌🏾😎
That tapered piston ring tool os definitely way better. No question about it . Rings did get clocked 👍
@@themechanic6117 awesome 💪🏾💪🏾
@@themechanic6117 lap the valves much much better seal to valve n seats 👌🏾
@@themechanic6117 bro if u still get the sound when you start up it’s the VTC gear bro..is there a reason for the RBB vtc?
Question why just why is the crank vent are blocked meaning pvc n the valve cover breather blocked…that’s why ur building up crank pressure u can hurt the rings like that just to let u know…
Yes that was my mistake the first time. All the breather ports were blocked but when it goes back in the car this time I'll be venting at the valve cover for sure. Pcv was cut off and blocked because it was interfering with the intake manifold. The pcv vents into the timing cover which is the same thing as the inside of the valve cover so I'll just vent at the valve cover. ....I just ordered a pcv , I'll find a way to re install it lol
U wanna use non-detergent oil for Break in 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Break in oil isn't good for break in ?
@@themechanic6117 always was told my machine shop to use non-detergent oil nd my brother has race car n he also uses non detergent oil to brake in now u my method is non deterrent for start up let it run to you go thru heat cycles to where it’s all good then once ur good to where u wanna go for test drive is when u put some good good oil nd most people with N/a k’s run the valvoline VFR oil 5-40
I heard olive oil goes good with new engines.
Bro no it is there fault cause there a machine shop they should know not to paint thoes areas
Yeah it blows my mind but I really should have noticed the problem myself. No sense in pointing fingers at this point.
