"He has his builds down to a science and hes patient" and also he likes to go with sylicone around bolt holes dont degree the cams and left all leftoovers from casting job in the head and we can go on and on with this half ass job :D
The only mistake I saw was at 5:15. When grinding the rings, grind one side only. Otherwise clean work! I build my 4G63s/64s pretty close to this and run the same crank. I use A dial bore gauge on the crank bearing bores directly with the main bearings installed and cradle torqued, instead of the snap gauge/micrometer method. I've never seen that crank sensor setup before on this block. Very cool!
I’m just dying thinking about Devin’s talk track in his head while recording. “Don’t grunt, don’t breathe, I must be silent” then realizing how much he literally talks to him self as he builds 😂
LOVE IT! ASMR for plastic unpacking, towel ripping, box opening, part cleaning, wiping, marking, careful part placement, torquing, - I NEEDED THIS Devin! ! Therapy!
one of the best of Devins engine building. It could have been a lot longer for me, but the head was ready to install from the headshop.. only the missing lube on the oilfilter spooked me for a second, but then again some are prelubed and others work same without oil on em...
forgot to add rtv onto the threads of one of the bolts for timing belt idler/tensioner pulley mount that bolts to the block, one of the bolts threads is in the oil galley.
At high RPMs, I’ve heard that if the circlip opening is at three or 9 o’clock that it could compress the circlip enough to fall out. This has never happened to anyone I know but it does makes sense. Could just be a myth, but just incase, I always place the opening at 12 or 6.
I appreciate videos like this sometimes. This is what happens when you are building, thank you for making a video with the details that people can just look at as a how too. Might need another title to reflect what it is though IMO
Correct me if I’m wrong but I believe the mistake was rotating the crank while tightening the crank timing gear, without a timing belt, the engine is now not top dead center. 14:50 other than that beautiful video🤘🏼
I may be mistaken, but aren't certain bolts supposed to have sealant on them because of the way the coolant passages run through the block? I know you had to remove certain bolts and add sealant to them, the first time you built this engine. Love the ASMR aspect of this video! Out of every other Automotive Channel I watch on RUclips, I always watch your videos first! Keep up the amazing work Devin!
I know nothing about engine building but this kind of video is really my cure for a peaceful lunch break. Although I didn't build any engine, my guess is that it's lacking of margin check either on the crackshaft inner part and the cam springs, but I only spotted that because I mainly watched building with used parts
You should take the micrometer tool from the gray part, which is a thermal insulator. If you take it from the metal part, you can vary the measurement due to the transfer of temperature to the tool.
Don't comment a lot on videos I watch, but this one was good! Could have been longer, in my opinion, but I love this build series and can't wait to see his car complete!
Great work. Great attention to detail. I would have lubed the cam lobes completely but as long as it spins after everything is assembled, no worries. Great Job!
Вот грамотный подход. Ты промеряешь каждый узел с таким пристрастием.... Хочешь всем показать как выглядит идеальная сборка двигателя.... Но.... Это почти идеальная сборка.... В идеальной сборке поршневые кольца ставят приспособлением.
When cleaning engine parts using regular coffee filters is the best. They are cheap and when they rip fibers don’t come off that could go into the engine.
Hoping the .045 ptw measurement was missin a zero, great vid tho.. Never really been an import fan so can honestly say you are the only channel we watch with these type of builds.. Cant help but respect the quality of your work and attention to detail..
I think the mistake is at 15:10. I mean, I would’ve measured the tolerance with all the teeth, not just the first one. Anyway, those were the most satisfying 17 minutes of my life.
Respect to your craft and your years of experience I don’t want to be that guy that points out everything but my teacher from tech school always said to use a short sockets when it comes to assembling so you have a low change of stripping the bolts and you have more torque.
Amazing man! Bought an STI used and the motor blow only had it for a couple months but dealer said i bought it as is so im in the wrong $15000 for a new motor sucks but have people like you guys makimg thise great videos it helps out and i have no mechanical skills lol im a carpenter😅
This was so satisfying watching the engine come together. In the electric car world that governments want to mandate this art would be gone. Thanks for the video Devin.
Best video so far to be honest. Sounds over talk any day for me. Also the video quality was on point and way better than usual. I should know, I’m a videographer.
Not sure if this is necessary for the 4G63, but I would assume that the main-bearing cap nuts are torqued and then angled? Which I assumed wasn't angled because of the shot @ 10:21 The paint marker of the studs line still line up perfectly with the nuts.
Hey man I really recommend using the OEM freeze plugs for the block/head, I had my head service with those aftermarket brass plugs and alot of them are failing after only a few thousand kms, OEM plugs sorted the issue.
Did not prime motor with oil pickup still upside down for first start up. Or can do it with timing belt off and spinning oil drive gear with drill before installing belt. To remove all air in filter and channels and get beter oil pressure on first startup.
There were a few mistakes. The PTW you measured was .0045, not .045. You put the pistons in backwards - the larger valve reliefs are for the intake valves, but they were installed on the exhaust side. You installed the oil pump front cover assembly with a missing dowel, there should be 2 to locate the gasket and cover properly. Didn't appear to put any ARP lube on the threads of the main studs, only the washers. Used too much silicone in a few places.
I have to say the only thing jumped out immediately to me was not pre filling the oil filter. I also would of thought the crank studs into the block may require lock tight?
Super clean. But I think I know what's the mistake. I'm not pretty sure, but I think you're supposed to check the piston rings gap in its specific cylinder where it should be, and it I think the piston ring should be put lower in the cylinder cause the way you're putting it might be even higher than TDC. Probably not required in most engines, but just guessing! Please correct me if I'm wrong
What about priming the oil pump filling it with oil before installation? I always do this and full the engine with oil after it's fully mounted and then turn.. Also leave the plugs off when tumbling the engine to bring up oil pressure..
Reminds me of when I swapped all the goodies from my stock evo 6 motor to my built evo 8 2.3L short block. I didn't add thread sealant to one of the idler pulley bolts which goes into an oil passage and it was puking oil when I started it up. Hope that didn't happen to you! Good times!
15:54 timing belt is not tight inoghe + the RPM sensor should be clouse for about 2.5 MM , not less . outherwise everything looks perfect. LET ME KNOW IF IM MISTAKING
14:11 am i crazy or did you leave the balancer on the oil pump? 14:15 this way, with the help of a hammer and a screwdriver, you can tighten the screw!!! I, like you, tightened and tightened the screw. and the cover of that strange screw was pressing - touching the head of the balancer screw (DELETE KIT BALANCER)! That's why he Delite Kit pressed, scratched the channel-bearings and destroyed my oil pump! and I kept having a scratching sound but I didn't know what it was until I tore the engine apart! I even have pictures if you want I can send them to you! I haven't seen anything more beautiful and I enjoyed every second. Thanks for this video!
The silent treatment all makes sense, Devin had already walked us through thee entire build in previous videos, so this time with no further interruptions we can sit back and watch the magic happen! This guy makes it look easy, true craftsmen.
I have looked in the comments to see who saw it but it seems no 1 has any idea about building engines he used a paint brush to apply lube u don't risk leaving a bristle no matter how soft it is 6.30 mins

I'm gonna say it...... you put the paper towels on backwards.
Doesn't matter man. If u think about it
@@abdellahbouincha3519 It matters. Especially with toilet paper!
Lost his credibility putting on backwards. Attention to detail goes a long way when building engines
It’s like tires. Directional. Solid call out
fr that was criminal. I'm surprised RUclips hasn't taken this down yet.
forgot to add rtv onto the threads of one of the bolts for timing belt idler/tensioner pulley mount that bolts to the block, one of the bolts threads is in the oil galley.
It’s amazing how stuff is created and every detail on how they work!
Did you put thread sealant/rtv on the bolt that goes through the mount bracket, it goes through a oil galley
Glad to see it coming together! Enjoyed all of the sounds. Time to get her back together and move to the NSX build.

Nah, he already got so many engine building videos explaining everything, this one was relaxing🫡
I could watch this every day!!
Circlip on the piston, always have the open end on the 12 or 6 o’clock position. You installed it at 3 o’clock
I’d love to know why this is important

No lube like anywhere lol! We shall see a rebuild coming soon!
@@JavierMartinez-wo8czwhat where?

IIRC only the exhaust manifold studs need rtv because of the oil passages.
I wonder if anyone actually commented the mistake. I was being all brain numb from how relaxing it was to watch I couldn't focus on any mistakes.
