    Tide and water also will remove paint from plastic parts with out damaging them , but with plastic depending on how thick the paint is it could take up into a week just light brush each night and back into the solution . With carbon on internal engine parts just over will do. Try one small part & see you will be surprised

    • @FuzzyDiceProjects
      @FuzzyDiceProjects  7 лет назад

      Only certain ones that are torque-to-yield, like many Japanese engines use. That means they are designed to stretch in a certain way as they are tightened and will not reach the correct clamping force if used again. Most older American engines just use regular bolts, like this small block Chevy does.

Regular paper towels do have lint, it is unavoidable, but it is small enough, soft enough, and easily washed out of the system the first time an engine/transmission/whatever is run.

  • @suicidegrapes7302
    @suicidegrapes7302 6 лет назад

    Just found ya channel, great vids, one thing bothers me tho, I was taught to never, ever re-use "cylinder head bolts" because they've been torqued & stretched to specs for the 1st time, so they're more prone to premature failure the 2nd time around.....not saying you're wrong, but just was taught differently.

    • @FuzzyDiceProjects
      @FuzzyDiceProjects  6 лет назад

      On a small block Chevy, especially a mild one like this, they are totally fine to re-use. Some engines use torque-to-yield bolts which are designed to stretch and should never be re-used like you mentioned, but not these older small blocks (before the mid-1990's you should be safe). Of course, if you want to spend a little more for new bolts, it would not be a bad idea.

      Yes, installed crank bearings the same size as the ones in it when I took it apart. Smarter to get it reground? Definitely! Cheaper? Nope, and that's me in a nutshell. The engine seems fine so far, and has great oil pressure though.

  • @jordanwiley4582
    @jordanwiley4582 6 лет назад

    imo, i wouldn't reuse head bolts on anything where the holes go into a water passage. On my Buick 350s I do because all the holes are blind, as they have a bottom, and they usually clean up well and have no pitting, again, because the holes are blind and dont protrude into water passages. If a bolt is pitted, it's structural integrity is compromised.

    • @FuzzyDiceProjects
      @FuzzyDiceProjects  6 лет назад

      For a cylinder head seeing boost or high compression, or a more expensive build, new head bolts are a very good idea. For stock-ish SBC, if the bolts pass a visual inspection after cleanup I wouldn't hesitate to re-use them. Thread sealer keeps them from leaking, and a regular coolant change interval keeps it from getting too acidic, so they are fairly safe in there.

    How can you tell where the rod caps go? I took my engine apart a while ago and some of the caps were off the rods, is there any way to tell?

    • @FuzzyDiceProjects
      @FuzzyDiceProjects  6 лет назад +1

      That's why it's important to mark where each rod cap goes before taking things apart, it is tough to get mixed up rod caps back in the right place. Some types of rods are actually broken at the parting line, so they have a unique break and the caps will only fit with their specific rods, but most are not like that. Best thing to do would probably be to install the caps on rods and torque the nuts down, and use an inner diameter micrometer or similar tool to measure the roundness of each, and just try different caps with different rods to find the combination that makes each as round as possible. Of course, each rod cap can be installed in two different directions and that can make a difference too. The same thing might be possible just measuring on the crankshaft with Plastigage, but you'd really want the accuracy of a micrometer there.

    • @FuzzyDiceProjects
      @FuzzyDiceProjects  5 лет назад +1

      Did he use a wire brush to clean it? Certain types of brush (steel) will cause a reaction in the aluminum and can cause it to oxidize like that. Stainless wire brushes are the way to go for aluminum parts. I doubt degreaser caused that, but I couldn't say for sure. Never noticed an issue with it when I used Purple Power.

Cleaned a carburetor body with a steel brush once or twice and had that result, never had it happen to one cleaned with other methods, including more than one soaked in Purple Power. But it could be some weird reaction or have to do with the composition of the metal itself. Could even just be that the degreaser cleaned it so well that it didn't have any protective coating/layers built up on it to prevent that oxidation.

      Like Dave1135 said, companies have pretty much figured all of this stuff out for these engines. And they are so simple, there kinda just isn't all that much to go wrong if the parts are made half-decent. And they are so plentiful, companies can make these parts in huge quantities and source them from many different manufacturers to get them to your door cheaply. If you need an engine guaranteed to last at 6500 RPM, or put out 600 HP, then those parts are out there too, at a very different price point. I haven't been burned by these sorts of cheap parts yet (not that it won't/can't happen), so I am not worried about it.

I had questioned as I am rebuilding a Toyota 22R, and parts for it are so iffy, for cheap you can get crap parts but it doesn't seem to be the case with yours. Twice the horsepower as mine for a fraction of the cost!! I'm gonna be in like $2K!!

    • @FuzzyDiceProjects
      @FuzzyDiceProjects  7 лет назад +3

      It totally happens, and there is a huge gap in prices between brands and engine families. I helped a friend rebuild a 7MGTE a few years back and the amount of money he spent on parts for that thing (a mild boost 400-ish hp setup) was outrageous. Parts for the L28 we half-rebuilt in the Datsun 280z series on this channel were well over twice the price of the ones used in this build.
      Best of luck with the 22R, those engines have a fantastic reputation for endurance, I hope yours treats you well for many years to come! If you do it yourself, brand, horsepower, and cost don't matter. Just that YOU did it.

      Ideally, you're right, ARP bolts would be great to use, but what is on there will treat me fine. The cap isn't loose, I had to try four or five times to get that shot of it sliding on in one go at the end (you can see one of those attempts at the end of part 4 of this episode). In a race engine, sure, go ARP. In this one, we're all just lucky I'm not holding the rods together with zip ties!

    • @FuzzyDiceProjects

      If I used ARP hardware, I wouldn't feel comfortable without reisizing the big ends, a change like that can really affect clearances since they are so tight for SBC rods. So the price isn't all in the purchase of the hardware. Other than engines built for horsepower or with no regard for budget, I don't know many people who wouldn't just use the stock ones.

    You really should use ring pliers on your piston rings to avoid deforming them, it could cause compression to go down

    Get rid of the paper towels. TOO much lint and there will be too much FOB tracking into the rebuilt engine.

    • @FuzzyDiceProjects
      @FuzzyDiceProjects  7 лет назад +1

      I don't know what "FOB" stands for, but the lint and fibers from paper towels (as long as it's not on critical gasket surfaces), doesn't pose a threat to a small block Chevy. At some absurd level, sure, you could maybe get it to sludge enough to get a large piece to stick to the oil pickup screen and cause a blockage. But at a reasonable level, with particles of paper towel small enough that you can barely see them, I do not think there is any threat. In an automatic transmission valve body, probably don't use regular paper towels. In an engine, they're fine. It's a perfect world vs. the real one sort of situation.
      If that is the biggest problem you have with the things I am doing to this engine, it makes me feel better about the build haha!

      FuzzyDicePimp I believe he means FOD meaning foreign object damage. It's more of an aviation based term for objects that damage parts. I.e. a rag in the intake that jams the stators and rotors of a jet engine.

    I heard that you could never reuse your head bolts s*** happens

    • @FuzzyDiceProjects
      @FuzzyDiceProjects  6 лет назад

      Only on some engines that use torque to yield bolts, that stretch as they are tightened. On many engines (like a Chevy 350 that isn't picky) you are fine re-using bolts but if getting new ones is in the budget, it isn't a bad idea.

    I always shudder when I watch someone using a cutting blade on a grinder without the guard! Having suffered a broken blade, WITH the guard in place, I really cringe. Please change your habit before too late.

    • @FuzzyDiceProjects
      @FuzzyDiceProjects  6 лет назад +2

      I just about always use guards now, except when absolutely impossible to use one. The one on that grinder was just difficult to use and the screws liked to back out. I have seen some scary damage from the things (there is a reason they are called "death wheels"!) so it is definitely best to have that extra layer of protection. Thanks for looking out!
