Very impressive. Love the detail and the recommendations along the effort. I'm working on a top end kit for my SBC and the detail you provide is essential. Great job.
Awesome videos. Thank you for showing an up close detail. I noticed your block as the holes for a retaining plate. Have you considered a Gen VI step nosed roller cam? With the retaining plate you won't need to mess with the thrust button nonsense.
Do you have to take the oil pan off to replace the timing chain? Also, if the engine wasn't at top dead center when the distributor was removed could it cause problems? I'm doing these repairs on a motorhome with the engine in. Thanks and great job!
Im digging your video very well done. Keep it up. Im documenting a big block build myself on my channel and will need to swap the cam/timing chain/sprocket here shortly so this was a great refresher.
Building my first BBC 402. What's your thoughts on the double roller timing vs the gear drive? Going in short bed pickup and want it to be a weekend driver as much as possible. Not going to be a track truck. Good videos thanks
We want to build it piece by piece. For now we are just doing the essentials to see if we can get it running in the El Camino. If it runs then we will replace the cam and see if we can make it faster. Then the heads and after that we will see.
Of course there was a cam in it. Here's a lesson in listening to sellers. If he didn't say "a performance cam," all he was doing is telling you the bald truth.
Any input on why some crank gears are marked in the valley of teeth, others are marked specifically on a tooth. Can anyone point me towards information on this phenomenon, the internet returns nothing no matter the keywords used
What are your thoughts on this big block engine? Are you a fan of the red?
I like the red. I don't really like when people paint them orange.
I like black but it is hard to find oil leaks so red is the second best choice.
Glad you like the red. I think Orange can be cool depending on the car.
The red is cool. If I was to build a motor, I would probably go with a matte red if it exist.
DJHighTopFade That would look really cool.
I like your style. Keep up the good work. You have saved many grown men who were in a jam with these motors. Knowledge is power.🤓
I like that tool you use to press the gear on. It made it look easier than just hitting it with a hammer until its full seated.
67 thumbs up...like the year of my impala...67! Diggin the ducktales shirt,,used to watch it wen i was a kid!
Thanks man! I love the 67 Impala. I've been looking for a 4 door 67 off and on for a while now.

This video is a great help even if its a big block and I'm building a small block 305.
Red is always a win bro! Just painted my sbc 350 Red with chrome and alum parts
love big block chevy's and their orange too!

Putting a barebones lunati cam in my 454 mark v. 476-501 lift. Supposed to be a stage 2 rv cam. All stock valve train. Ever run one before? Thanks
That is an awesome Duck Tales shirt!
Thanks man!
I would love to see you doing it inside the hood bro,,,
Notice the heads don't have the camel humps anymore. The yellow ones. Please explain why they are so cool there 202
I prefer not to beat the snot out of the gear, not good for bearings especially thrust bearing.
Good use of that tool, its worth it.

Gear drive is louder I like the sound, some don't, I believe they're more expensive some say they're stronger too.
great job,thanks,
shouldn't both dots be @ 12 oclock for tdc number 1 cylinder compression?
yes
hey guys, yep, the red is good, it's different. What are the plans for this engine again ? Cheers from Australia :)

well mate, if HRG can put a diesel in an El Camino, i'm sure a big block Chevy won't be a problem...lol :) Good luck ! :)
Thanks! Hopefully we will have this in and be doing burn outs very soon.
Need to where to put transition fluid in a 2004 passage vw
Nice vid! Easier way to adjust timing without taking off bottom gear. Lol!
Red and blue
This guy makes everything look hard, hahahaha
Where did you get the tool to push on the gear?

Replaces double roller with double roller and never checks if it was tighter compared to the one it originally had.
Accidents happen. I'm investing in steel toe boots.
DJHighTopFade A good pair of boots is well worth the investment.
First place I looked was Harbor Freight. For real.
I always soak my chain and oil
Set timing
It would have been cool to see the engine silver.
It honestly looked really bad. You can see a bit around the water pump area if you look closely.
Hi man can you maybe not do the music, it makes it hard to understand you
Junk and the rest is a fine way to waist parts and money 💰 same thing as for you way wrong about everything 🙃
