    Don’t straight push the piston down, you have to tap it in, otherwise you’ll get what happened on 6 when it could have been sent right into the crank. Which will more than likely damage it.

    • @galorchs8867

      would just like to add i used both methods stated here with the same tool joel had and broke a ring on piston 1. waiting a few days to get another ring and ill try again.

    • @imnota
      @imnota Год назад +3

      Problem is if you tap it what can happen, is in between two of your taps if the ring is close to the end of the compressor it might slide and pop out and on the next tap you break it.
      Proper way IS to push, but there's some truth to the tapping technique, if he tapped it a little to break it free he wouldn't have to push that hard, and it wouldn't have slammed.
      So I guess tap it to get it close and when it's close to the edge push in one motion to make sure a ring doesn't pop out.

    Really good video on building up these engines, just a few pointers for any future builds, or anyone following along
    Your main studs aren't getting full thread engagement on the nuts, and this is a known issue with ARP studs in these engines, you need to back the stud out a few turns by hand or drop a ball bearing in to the thread holes before the studs to space them out
    In future when checking rod bearing clearances, fit the pistons and rods with the rings attached to hold them in place
    You also want to check the rod bearing clearances with the ARP assembly lube on both the rod bolt threads and the underside of the head on the rod bolts, to ensure they achieve the correct torque
    Don't push the pistons in to the bore with one hard hit, but instead a series of softer taps with the hammer handle, whilst occasionally making sure the ring compressor is flat to the block
    It looks like you have the wrong long chain guide on the block, as it's not supposed to move in and out like that, which means it's probably for an Ali M52/M54 from an E46. There is a chain guide that is correctly spaced and held in place by the circlip that you fitted
    You really shouldn't have sprayed WD40 in the cylinder head for an overnight stint, but more importantly, it will now likely mix with the oil and cause contamination issues, as WD40 can be used to displace oil and decrease it's effectiveness. Just be sure to flush the engine very soon after first startup and engine break in
    When refitting the head studs to the block, you don't need to lube the block thread end of the studs, as they are supposed to be installed dry, as per ARP instructions. They do not rotate at all when the head is torqued down
    You don't need to use pliers to pull the pistons out of the lifters, if you place them on a block of wood and tap them with a rubber mallet, it will pop the Piston out
    Bleeding the lifters up before installation is fine, as they will bleed out to the desired height when the engine is running, it's actually the engine oil pressure that keeps them pumped up, which is why they fail in high revving applications
    When refitting the cam trays and lifters, just rotate the engine on the stand on to its side and you can slide the trays on to the studs with no danger of the lifters falling out

  • @RomasTam
    @RomasTam Год назад +22

    Also, for the next time (I hope it won't need any more rebuilds lol) - when installing the pistons, tap the cylinders with a handle, instead of pushing, while occasionally flattening the ring compressor on the block :)

  • @dannyipwn1203
    @dannyipwn1203 Год назад +15

    Awesome video. Here is a good suggestion. Next time on the cam caps you leave the bolts loose and threaded. Then smack the tops of the bolts with the hammer. It pushes the piston down which also releases the cap

    • @dannyipwn1203
      @dannyipwn1203 Год назад +7

      Also. Install all of your pistons and rings before plastigaging the rod bearings. The rings will hold the pistons in. That way you install all 6 pistons. Flip the block over. And then plastigage 2 at a time. Saves tremendous amounts of time and accidents. The piston shouldn’t fall out of the block lol

    Like the content on the main bearings, you actually did a thrust bearing check. I haven't been so deep in a motor yet but I am now. I am learning this portion as I go. And stumbled across thrust bearing check, but no one yet on a non video search said much about it. Good to see the method here.

    32:20 you put the rod stud or bolts in with a piece of hose over them and flip the engine over an push the pistons in with a ring compressor. I use 5/16" silicone hose over some studs I have around to keep it from scoring the walls.

    I remember when I rebuilt my first BMW engine, and if my memory serves me right, it was the very first V8 engine, better known as the "S62B50", developed by BMW's Motorsport Division, in addition to being the first V8 to be used on BMW's high performance variant (M5) of its mid-size sedan class (5-Series). I can affirm with high probability that my forged crankshaft had no play in its position, staying right where it was supposed to be (post-installation), with absolutely no movement whatsoever, and I state with 100% accuracy, that the legendary V8's cylinder head was NOT dropping pistons and oil rings left and right.
    Here's a word of advice; since it is apparent that you are new to engine rebuilding, with not much experience, it any at all. If I was you, I would not start committing myself into new projects that involve difficulty such as rebuilding or refreshing an entire engine block, especially BMW engines, which are more complex and elaborate in its blueprint. Get some experience first on less complicated and cheaper engine builds such as a Toyota or even a KIA. Good luck dude!
