- Well guys it’s a day late because of my birthday celebration taking priority, but this is worth waiting for. We setup our own court scenario and defend our business against the prosecution from another channel! This was a low blow from them!

That’s the trouble with social media, everyone is quick enough to come out with their pitch forks and start slating without knowing the full facts of a situation.
Any decent mechanic would have noticed the stud was more proud than the rest. They made a mistake yet you still rectified the issue. To then talk badly of yourselves, is disgraceful imo. Keep up the good work 👏
@@lgrasso5531 very good point!
Exactly. They need someone to blame for them not checking that the stud went in enough turns.
when u are building an engine u need eyes in your ass more so when a machine shop does work for u that they cant test at that moment that is up 2 the engine builder these turkeys can f off as far as im concerned
And they're fool to assemble without a thorough cleaning and inspection of every hole. I knew this in High School auto shop.
Well said, Lee! I've seen that on RUclips but did not watch it. I'm glad I didn't now. Just thought it would be all praise 👏
Happy Birthday Lee.
As an engineer who has always reconditioned my own engines, I would trust your company to do a professional job on any of my equipment. Kind regards,
Tony Marsh.
Solution: 1. Put a tag on all of the blocks and parts that states, “This part needs to be thoroughly cleaned before assembly”. 2. Stop offering to just drill out the holes for the long studs on Cossie engines, instead advise the customer that Cossie engines need special machining and helicoil thread inserts, to ensure that the long studs are completely vertical.
Happy birthday Lee, well said
Wise words concerning the right of reply... And great advert for keeping photographs
Well handled Lee. Happy Birthday
Very well explained and defended Sir, I would trust you with any of my engines.
I have posted in that video where you diagnosed the block issue that your shop should keep a dedicated set of long studs, preferably painted or powder coated an obnoxiously bright color just to do dummy builds and alignment verifications with. I still maintain that you should implement that practice. It will save you all kinds of grief the moment you start it.
Definitely a good idea from now on 👌🏼
The prosecution must have gotten some backlash.. he's removed the video.
I love machining engine parts.
I've been machining for 41 years Lee, and what you are saying sounds absolutely right to me, chill spots in cast iron can be a nightmare, and as far as I can remember I've never heard you say anything that sounded wrong to me.
I machined a billet steel crankshaft for a BRM F1 engine a few years ago, and that's not a cheap engine to rebuild.
Two weeks after the crank went out we got another order from the highly reputed historic racecar restorer who had built the engine.......and put the thrust bearings inside out and trashed the £5k crank!!
Good response. Stand your ground. Happy Birthday by the way.
Cheers Lee, Engine reconditioning is a minefield,you’re caught between the Devil and the deep Blue Sea. It’s impossible to keep everyone happy so keep doing what you do best. Happy 60th birthday by the way 🤙
It's going to come down to this: No rush jobs. No deep stud unless you have the studs in your hands, etc. Just hurts the customer.
25 years in this game I've built countless engines, machine shop is just that! cleanliness is next to godliness, clean everything twice! double check everything! liability lies with the engine builder.
People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones keep up the good work Lee without guys like you looking after these old engines they all be bean tins
That was probably the shop that called the fire Marshal on you. I don't know how it works over in the UK but here in the US their comments would be considered defamation of character making them liable for damages to your business. Especially since she made things right when they bring the block back to you and you corrected the mistake. But they should have used their common sense and ran a thread cleaner through all the stud holes. When I get a block back from the machine shop I go over thoroughly and I run a thread cleaner through all the holes and I use my USB Endoscope Camera to look down the thresholds to make sure they're clean.
Hi Lee I must compliment you on your approach to problems , and some folks are very quick to tell lies to cover their own butt and pass the book to some other body , when you tell the truth at all times you can hold your head high, on the other hand , from the moment ,a job is done to the Manufacturers Spec , you will never a problem , Good luck to you and Issac on the show .
Happy birthday Lee, The evidence in the photo is conclusive, stud not wound down.
Happy belated birthday. Hope you had a good day 👍👍👍👍
It was there mistake they are blaming you to cover there arse
😯😯
Happy Birthday - and I’m loving all the little racks for rings & springs and stuff, and the crank stands - schmick 👍
On the limiter should be ashamed. Keep it up Lee, John and Isaac
I think they’ve removed the vlog now, must be ashamed
Stand your ground on truth brother, love the fact you call your Children Children and not kids, kids are goats, as an aside I think searing undermines all youtubers cannels. keep up the good work in the face of adversity.
Many happy returns from Canada mate ! Karma will take care of this complainant my friend. You obviously are of a higher essence. It’s twice as hard to be nice and decent like you guys than being nasty, well done taking a higher road it will always pay off. I watch every video you and Issac put out, love em. Keep em coming !!!
That company done work for us before will never use them again youre 100% correct Lee
The blame is on the engine assembler. You always clean or blow our with air every hole or chase threads to insure it's cleaned out. The fault isn't yours. Keep up the great work and videos
Happy birthday Lee. Let these badmouthing muppets find another engine builder in the future, you don't need the hassle.
I dont know you but have watched a good few of your videos. You seem like a genuine and well balanced guy. I for one would have no issues trusting you with any engine work. In any business, and life for that matter, integrity is everything. Carry on 👍😁
Happy birthday Lee. Greatings from Norway. Love the contense.
Another great video Lee and Happy Birthday from Canada!
Good video again and well done for explaining the engine issues as well .
Happy birthday Lee hope she took you to a Spa and not a Spar 😂
To buy him a track day at a famous Belgian circuit is what I call true love…😂
Keep up the good work that you do, I will be sending my Fiesta rs turbo engine to you in the future!!
I agree with you, firstly, in any engineering work ,things dont always go to plan, and the first contact of a problem, normally resolves it, after that the courts are the option, but what you DONT do, is wash your dirty linen in public, that man needs a lesson in diplomacy.
A bodger will ALWAYS have an excuse for why the f-up isn't his fault.
And fellow bodgers will ALWAYS defend him.
50 years ago we had to use dental mirrors - today it is SO EASY to do with a USB scope.
It is ALWAYS the responsibility of the person/assembler that puts the stud/bolt/whatever in the hole to final check that the hole is clean and clear.
Happy birthday Lee and well done, you’ve kept the higher ground here by not naming them. Customer is an amateur engineer and influencer.
Good for you…I appreciate the videos very much and informative..
This just shows the differnece between a professional company and a two bob amateur keyboard warrior who sits there slagging everyone else off when they are far from perfect. Your response and attitude is the best defence against these clowns who in the end will be found out and end up losing customers etc. Keep up the great work Lee
Happy birthday Lee have a good-un🎂👍
good work lee, honesty is the key mate , happy birthday pal
Happy Birthday Lee...
Lee, you should link the video. That way said "shit for brains" could receive constructive criticism and be a witness for the defence.
I have blueprinted several race engines in my 40 years as a qualified mechanic and i am still learning things from your channel.
Lastly many happy returns of the day from sunny Loughborough.

My first and only experience of not cleaning a stud hole out was ,,, crikey must been 35 years ago ,, torquing down head bolt on a x flow to see fluid squirt out the side of the block ….another one to be mindful of was removing spark plugs….got used to blowing the loose crap out from around the plug with air line before plug removal ……obviously wearing safety glasses 😉
Is it possible for the threads to peel off the bolt at the bottom and peel off the block at the top, did you get the bolts
Happy birthday Lee - well said… I’m sure that everyone who has all the facts available knows the real truth, these guys obviously don’t have all the information or any idea. Sometimes mistakes are made and you are always the first to hold your hands up if it’s your fault. The videos that you make show both the good and the bad and are always very informative 👍
Happy Birthday LEE 😎 don't get triggered by this chat, remember we all have good days and bad, people are going to say what they want, just let it go over your head, it's just talk and there's always someone ready to pull a stroke, always try to think positive and all the satisfied customers you have worked for, hope your Birthday went down well😎.
Lee don't worry plenty of these types in the world not worth a second of your time.. Happy Birthday.
I've seen the video in question, and Lee, you're in the right! You can't help stupid!!!
Happy birthday Lee. I watched said video and glad you have put up a very honest and good defence. Keep up the great content.
Very elegantly defended, and what a stand up guy not name dropping all the time! Sometimes people don’t realise how detrimental to a business negative unfounded accusations can have on a company, ultimately though that’s what defamation laws are for, stand your ground, get the video banned and start legal proceedings sometimes it’s the only way to truly protect and defend yourself! You’d be amazed how people shut up when they’re facing a huge lawsuit as I’ve had to do previously.
G'day bud you have my support, you always show what you are doing, shop's like to hide there skills lol! Because they are so good
Excellent Lee Happy Birthday 🎉
Take em to court.
Happy Birthday to you Lee 🎉
Keep right on doing great work Lee, and happy birthday to yah!!
Found the video and commented. I recommended you off the back of watching this channel to a friend James at Liberty Autoworks for the escort Cossie recently, you’ve done a great job. That blokes shot himself in the foot by doing that video. That’s ‘Bad taste’ I said to him!
Can you send me the link please
I would be interested to see this too.
@@shaunfatmax111 I think he’s removed the video
Thursday? when Isaac away things turn to shite..l joking of course. happy birthday Lee.
appy b-day Lee. Once I got past 50, I stopped caring about 'em. Hope you continue celebrating milestones with yer family.
well said lee. happy birthday and trust that the wife showed you a great time, and the rugrats behaved.
the dingus who said this and built a subpar engine needs to be added to the blacklisted businesses, and if they return is made to pay the arsehole tax (usually200% +).
Well put! Class act as usual!
Very professional Lee well said, I believe they have removed the video from RUclips, must be embarrassed 😂😂😂😂
Lee had to do that too when he named a customer he was in depute with. Lee also named two other businesses he wasn't happy with and caused them a lot of grief, one complaint of which wasn't the businesses fault.
On The Limiter. Very Unprofessional. Hope no one does any machining for him ever again.
well said m8, totally agree with you.
You could always make a long series drill jig for drilling holes with hard cast lumps. This is not my idea, but it seems to work for another RUclips machine shop. Good luck.
Whoever put the stud in that hole had the responsibility to make sure the hole was clean and obviously nobody checked the stud was the right height.
Hope you had a good Happy Birthday chap
I won't use businesses who spend time bad mouthing others. If they can't tell me why they should be my first choice without bad mouthing others then they are not yet good enough to get my business. That is a skill just as important as any other and if they can't do that well, perhaps their other skills are lacking too.
Careful Lee! He's wearing a Stoney!😂
Well said Lee!
You are right I have met people during my career in quality assurance. We didn’t keep notes at our meeting and I was blamed for accepting sub standard quality parts which I hadn’t . Very good idea to have an email with what is discussed between third parties in case of court action.
At least Lee had the photographs, although proving their relevance might have been some issue ...
I can only proffer one addition to all the other comments (yes, i always read all your comments), and that is you can't silence stupidity--but duct tape can muffle quite a bit of the noise.
Your video surely acted the role of duct tape.
Happy birthday, Lee. Well done.
Happy late Birthday Lee. Long studding the Cosworth block is a specialist item and the complaints on that other site remind me of what Einstein did as a teacher. He multiplied various numbers on the blackboard correctly but then wrote 9 X 10 = 91. Of course the class giggled and pointed out to him that his answer was wrong. His reply was that despite being right nine times, no one acknowledged his success but now one mistake is acknowledged! Don't know if that's a true story but it fits. Now wouldn't it be prudent to change or at least re-build the original cast iron Cosworth water pump?
Happy 21st birthday Lee, its shit when his viewers are only getting half a story, shame you cant post them pictures on his comment section, keep up the good work
Keep up the great work made my mind up you did nothing wrong
I go down 2-1/2 mil (one crank) two times, and then I add a few thou.
I love it. It must drive the metric and or the SAE purist nuts to have you throw out mixed units.
Of course we know that 1 mm is very nearly 0.040" inches so one crank rotation on the knee, or Z axis is 0.100". The gradients on the wheel of course being thou.
Well said....the video turned up on my feed but I wasnt interested in watching the content.....keep up the excellent work Barum 👍
Happy Belated birthday.
Happy birthday, hope you had a great day 🎂🍺
Lee I know this makes your blood boil, generally they post this shit because your successful and they want a piece of your pie with a cherry on top. You’ve got the good business the good wife, kids and of cause Issac & John. Happy birthday mate I’ll have a beer on you tonight 🇦🇺👍
Hope that did not ruin your birthday. Chin up carry on with the good work.
Happy birthday 👍
First of all,🍺HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎂and secondly, nice video, very well delt with.
If my YB needed any work you'd still get the job👍
Well said
He would be very wise to issue an apology immediately and remove the video. I advise seeking legal advice for potential defamation. It could prove very expensive for him!
@@STANLIZ4 Expensive for all. Lawyers always win that game.
Exactly look at the rooney vs vardy case. Only one real winner and it's the lawyer's.
@@me.6737 Vardy lost the case. Then challenged Rooneys costs, £1.8m awarded against her, costing another £100,000. so very much more expensive for the loser!
@@me.6737 Mrs Rooney fared pretty well, twice !
Keep a "chamber of horrors" photo and note record of bodgery that comes in and who dunnit. Like the one i had in my workshop where a photo of a Vauxhall Nova, with an over long replacement front brake hose coiled right around the strut leg and cable tied in place , by a Kwik-fit fitter, !! was one of the howlers
Well said Lee
Mine was Thursday lol😂 happy birthday mate
🥳🎉🎂Happy Birthday Lee🎉🥳🎂. Hope you had a good’un. 🥳🎉🎂
Don’t know the channel that did that, and probably a good thing, as I might’ve said something I’d regret. That’s just dirty. I’ll leave it at that so I don’t start ranting.
Keep up the good work. If I was in the fortunate position of having a an engine needing done, I’d have every confidence in taking it to you.
Cheers 🍻
come chrissy time Lee, send 'em a blue and white striped apron....
Well said Lee I saw that video well out of order
If you havent got anything nice to say don't say anything at all. Well done Lee. happy birthday
well defended Lee.
It's about time you show some of your customers engines in their car up and running. Then if you just get your customers to send you a short or long film of it. You have mentioned showing some of your customers engines up and running in the past. But as yet there's not any, yes it can be a nightmare to do because they are all over the country. But I am sure if their so pleased with the end result they would be more then happy to make and send you a short film of it. 🤔😁
well said lee .fair enough
Fella up the North East with the burgundy Coz deffo goes by the name Lucky 😂
I have watched the video in question , what stands out more than most is the first stud issue , although i have been an avid follower of Barum Engines for a couple of years , firstly i dont think the block should of ever left the building with a stud it being that far out , secondly the repair should of been over and beyond better inc a full clean out and blow out , this is only my thought ,
Hi you need to listen better he was not supplied with a stud and he did not have one. So therefor he wouldn't of known it was not straight or not.
@@georgebartley2435 so a qualified engineer , drills and taps a hole in an engine block costing thousands , without making sure the the job is perfect , come on is that any form of quality control
Agreed
This Needs sorting out in the boxing ring 🤣🥊🤣
Keep up the good work,if you know what you are doing,how do you not notice the stud was too high, it's blame some one else time again
I said it before - in that example, you were a machinist not a hygienist … down to the builder. And as you rightly espouse … assume nothing … that’s why you’re stripping a brand new water pump
… that’s how professionals work.
Spar, very good shop, for the budget minded.
