Nice check sheet. Good idea. I just make notes then keep it all together. Then misplace later !!! Most places just do the standard measurements & cut the line bore. Nowadays - there is soooo much inconsistency in the bearings. I know a few people that set there cutters to the actual bearings being used. Otherwise you might have to use different bearings from several sets just to get a full set for one block Parts QA has really suffered. As if these engines aren't a pain to assemble & reassemble to make sure everything is working together. Not every single piece needs to be checked out.
hello, nice video and I like your diligence to do things right. I am just starting out getting into building VW engines and absolutely want to do this to the best of my ability and obviously knowledge is king. I wanted to ask you where I might be able to acquire one of those gauges you have for checking the saddles for the crank shaft. Thankyou
Great explanation of ur work. Great work…
Glad to help.

You can find those tools on cip1.
Great video!!
Fantastic info. Do you happen to know where I can download that "Build Checklist" you are using? Thx
Great pointers; what type of cam are you using?
Its a W110 cam from Engle.
@@FixinBugsNStuff That’s going to be a good one.
What you’re doing is the difference between an engine builder and a parts assembler.
Looking forward to this series.
