LOL It was worth a try. If I could just get Pizza Hut and Mt. Dew (Pepsi)
to sponsor one of my shows I wold be stoked! Ha!
LOL@ pizza hutt advertising…
Thank you very much. Very much appreciated.
New pistons won’t matter but make sure you have them the right direction
for the valve reliefs. There is usually a mark on the top of the piston
that either marks the “top” of the piston or the “forward” position of the
piston. Make sure to stagger the ring gaps. The top ring should have the
gap at the top so when the engine sits the gas/oil in the cylinder does not
run down through the gap to the second ring.
If you’re using brand new pistons does it matter which cylinder they go in?
LOL. Yeah. My room mate picked out the tile for the garage! My new place
has a properly painted floor with a Rust Oleum epoxy and sprinkled paint
chips. Great stuff!
looks like hes building this engine on his kitchen floor
Thank you very much. I am glad they help. I have more “professional” videos
on my website so it was hard for me to upload “iPhone” videos while
building an engine with one hand. LOL. I have more videos I need to upload
from replacing intake manifolds to bleeding brakes. Good tips I learned
from my old boss and building cars for over 20 years. Amazing the small
things you can do to make a difference in your work. Thanks again.
ive learned more from you in part one of this vieo than watching tv shows
for 15 years thanks so much for taking the time to make these videos
Thank you very much. I have the whole assembly on video broken down to
parts so you can find just the piston, cam or head install section. Just
have to take the time to cut it together. LOTS of 30 second clips shot with
an iPhone and trying to build an engine with one hand! LOL There is a great
“wish list” build sheet on my website if you click the link.
Awesome videos! Very informative, Thank you. I hope you’ll continue the
series.
Thanks. Part 3 coming soon! Check out the “dream” build sheet I have on my
website. Click the link in the description.
