    Davin your Redline rebuilds are a work of art. This helps save a small part of automotive history for others to enjoy.

    It's good to know that Hagerty gives so much back to the automotive enthusiast community, and Davin is a huge part of that.
    Glad to know the premiums I pay are put to such good use.

      When you're looking at machine shops to do work for you theres 2 things that will tell you you're in the right place. 1 they've got more work then they know what to do with and 2 the place smells like iron and oil. Got them both you've found the right place.

    Norman learned hands on with his late Dad and through college.
    He became the carbs and injection systems specialist in the area - that's how I met him 35 years ago for a Toyota "unrepairable" carb by others

  • @JohnThomas-vb9se
    @JohnThomas-vb9se 3 года назад

    The burn a bead process is by far the best way of cleaning old iron. You just have to make sure you wash everything really well. It also helps to run a magnet through all the galleries and every hole you can get it into. It’s a fine balance, if there isn’t enough heat in the burner the old oil turns to sludge and the shot will hang up inside things. Also the magnaflux would’ve showed you the whole crack on the manifold.

    Hope you plan to drill a small hole at the end of the crack before you start welding , that would stop the crack from advancing any further.

    • @MrSloika
      @MrSloika 3 года назад +1

      There are only two practical ways to weld cast iron that I know of: 1) Oven welding. 2) Stitch welding. With oven welding the entire piece is heated nearly to the melting point of cast iron, the part is welded and then allowed to slowly cool. The other method involves 'stitching'. With the stitching method, a series of holes are drilled along the crack...yes, at the ends of the crack as well...the holes are tapped and steel pins are screwed into the holes. At this point a bead is laid down between the pins. When everything is cool, the weld is ground down and smoothed.

    • @markk3652
      @markk3652 3 года назад +1

      I've only seen the stitch pin repairs done, kind of interested to see how the repair will be done. The holes are drilled and tapped, they overlap by about a third of each pin, and then machined flat afterwards. Never saw welding over the pins. Can't wait to see this.

I had broken motor home exh. manifold .MIG was recommended . matched and Vgrooved seems . preheat between 350 -500 , weld , rest and keep heat , just let each run "propagate" heat , grind resurface after long kooldown in fiberglass .... a year later , customer returned from Florida and stopped at my customer to give a thumbs up . burn out cast , even brazing won't work , but yours looks solid and be a fun project

    I was told many years ago that if you're going to reuse lifters, push rods, and rocker arms to always keep them together as a unit when you disassemble an engine because they have worn in together. I don't see any engine rebuilders doing that on RUclips channels.

    • @santerresongarage7486
      @santerresongarage7486 3 года назад +8

      No, because you ground some all the way around. You can either change the profile and lift by removing more on the small end or just redo a stock profile. So the base circle (round section) and the lobe are both regrind making it smaller a bit. The valve adjustment will compensate for the lost of material.

    Dry Ice Media blasting for the Aluminum parts = No Base Metal Damage: Bead or Sand blasting Aluminum will result in some noticeable erosion/ loss of base material, especially on the edges. Alternatively an old trick is to use "tired" (Broken down) Bead blasting media at low pressure using masking tape on the gasket surfaces (it's a little rough on the bead blaster as a whole).

    Those 365’s were different. I had a “58 Cad. Often, cars that stuck with vacuum wipers (instead of getting smart like Mopar) added vacuum booster pumps on top of the fuel pump. But the Cadillac 365 vacuum assist pump was sandwiched onto the engine oil pump. And don’t get me going on the 1957-8 Treadle Vac brake booster... 🙄
