6.2 Cam Swap WITHOUT Pulling The Engine! L86 DOD Delete with Big Chief at Midwest Street Cars

[@albertvenable4122]

So now technically Jackie's ride gonna have Big Chief heads lol

[@KakinoHorsepower]

Uncle bucko "lack of maintenance" 😂😂😂

[@timothynalley7802]

Chief, watching you for 10 plus years, I’m convinced you could be a crew chief /tuner for ANY race program out there. I’m talking right there with the Jamie Millers of the world. Why? Your curiosity and dedication. What you may not know, you will learn it and be great at bc that’s who you are. Great work ethic.

[@justinshearer3016]

thank you! that means alot

[@timothynalley7802]

Just speaking the truth bro. There are PLENTY of guys on NPK that simply can’t tune their own race cars and need professional help. It’s not a coincidence that everyone you helped over the years ended up being a winning car and as soon as you weren’t involved, some could barely get down the street!

[@willbutler2639]

@@timothynalley7802 “couldn’t get down the street” like Shawn🤣 🫣

[@mikewhite3123]

He tuned just about everyone's car from the 405 for NPK,but the show never showed it lol

Thanks for the reply it’s cool to see someone you been watching for years interacting with there fans .

[@MidwestStreetCarsAuto]

I'm impressed by how clean he got that thing. Even the piston tops!

[@PCgonerogue820]

Can't wait to hear it running in a video. Thanks for sharing Miss.Jackie

thanks phillip!

[@timothynalley7802]

It’s EARLY Tuesday ! Great to get a new video Chief and Jackie !

[@MidwestStreetCarsAuto]

thank you!!

[@jeffreydurham5342]

At this point, only a hand full of wires and 15 or 20 bolts and the engine is out and on a stand. That's how we do these, so much easier to get and keep everything as clean as possible. To each his/her own. Looks like a nice job you did! As an aside, your channel is one of few that I don't find the "music" annoying! Thanks for sharing!

[@MidwestStreetCarsAuto]

thank you! usually we would pull it and replace everything but we honestly just wanted to get it as good as we could without having to wait on parts if we ended up replacing rods or pistons etc

It’s great watching you guys do regular stuff too and even when the engine is still in the car Chief is OCD about how clean everything is ! I think that’s great 😃👍 Aloha from Texas 😊🤙🤙🤙

Perfect job! I would have done the same. That's why you don't have any engine problems. Thanks for the video.

Nice work! FYI the "oil plugs" are just the rollers out of a A37 bearing available at any parts store for about $8.

Great job! I know I wasn’t the only one waiting to hear it fire up at the end 😅maybe on the next video?

[@MidwestStreetCarsAuto]

yes!

[@A.K.D-h7b]

I've done it with the engine in the vehicle several times; shop owners choice. Last one was a 2021 GMC 4x4. Not doing it that way again; I'd rather take out the engine. It's a couple of hours faster with the engine out, cleaner, and a little easier on the back. I work on flat rate so time is always a factor. Either way you guys have some nice rides and know what you are doing.

[@bradminor746]

What did you use to get the engine so clean. Really nice job love your videos

[@jefferychavis3453]

These have to be the best video to watch on KZbin just not enough 😂😂😂😂

Well hello Big Chief your my best racer and a hella car and motor builder and follow what you do! I'm 62 years old and only want racing now but son love it and has a Cadillac V and he love his car. I love want you do and enjoy want you do. Keep on and take care!

[@allanarndt3047]

Hi Chief & Jackie! It’s hard to see in your video but are you sure what you thought is an O-ring isn’t Red High temp. Gasket maker someone squeezed in there? It just doesn’t look like an O-ring? Still doesn’t make any sense why it’s in there? Odd?

[@sonnyellis8169]

Love your taste in music must be Jackie's

[@WingsAA]

Damn dude! Impressed with that cleaning! NIcely done. Cleaner than the day GM put it in the truck... lol

[@dirtyharryrs44magnum]

Back in the 80s, I was living in my 57Chevy 4door station wagon. Only way of surviving was racing on the main drag. When not running so great, it's surprising how tearing down completely & polishing, cleaning motor & trany ,327+2 speed power glide and using Budweiser cases

BTR TTF !! Bryan got a good thing going!!!

[@dougmoon4338]

Great stuff as always. That block and pistons came out super clean looks like it went to the vat. You got it that clean with just lacquer thinner and paper towels?

[@arturozarate1752]

Not telling anyone how to do their job, but I hope you took a look at ALL the cam bearings. About 10 or 12 years ago, I looked at the first bearing only, and I was pulling the engine out 3 weeks later for low oil pressure. It came in for a customer requested DOD delete with 110k on the odometer. The first bearing looked just as good as your's but the middle 3 were trashed. Since then...I pull and replace bearings. The seal on the trust plate was blown out just like yours the first time I went through it. I've had maybe a handful like that since. Long oil change intervals on all those vehicles. I hope you don't have the same trouble I had.

[@MidwestStreetCarsAuto]

yes! we made sure to check them and clean them all real good!

[@bassplayin02]

Fo real! Make a shirt with the Midwest Street Cats with your cars in background I'll buy one! Love watchin the vids with the cats in the mix.

Us back yarders here down under always do cam valve springs in car, tight ass chop the spark plug and hook compressor fitting so change springs without valves dropping. And the only cams here barely idle lol.

[@rachalhollier5679]

Wondering if it passed the cat’s inspection? That kitty knows the squeaky mouse was in there, lol. Great video guy’s and gal’s

[@MidwestStreetCarsAuto]

thank you!

[@FunWithHOScaleStuff]

Excellent video production. Engine repair was interesting. I assume that the block was run with DOD previous to the cam damage. Interesting modification to always run on eight cylinders.

[@JohnWayne-g8h]

I have that same L86 motor in my Jeep Wrangler swap. watching this video made me order a A BTR cam for it 😅

I can’t wait to see this engine run I know it not fast but still should be cool love you guys keep it up please

[@hoost3056]

Hey J&J........try Schaeffers or Lubrication Engineers synthetic oil in the truck. Schaeffers has a lot of moly and a killer detergent package, Lubrication Engineers oil is equal if not better on the cleaning side. Either one will save your stuff plus if you go longer on a change it won't hurt anything. Ive run Schaeffers synthetic in all my fleet cars and they run like new with low to no oil consumption after over 100k+ miles

[@turbotonye-4124]

*IMPRESSIVE* ok 1st Jackie’s editing skills just keep improving. Love the music change with the cats 🤣 love the shameless merch plugs 👍🏼 and Justin breaking his back by doing a cam install with block in the truck 💪🏼 but the best part for me is Justin’s jokes 🤣🤣 thank you guys much love and respect from the Jersey Shore

Lol The kat was like all be daum that dam thing Gotta LS in it 🙀

[@raykaufman7156]

Only problem with having a cat do QC instead of a shop dog...the dog will whimper or bark if something is wrong, but the cat ALWAYS just says "Well yeah, if YOU want to do that, fuck it...SEND IT."

[@mocarpenter8836]

I was wondering where Miss Juno was.... @ 7:55 There her is !! 😁😁

[@oikkuoek]

There's nothing like climbing up a tree backwards just for a show. :D But the level of clean was above average. This might even run for a while. If the break-in is done with caution and care, it might run for longer. This hippie would've used ATF to soak those lifters. It releases carbon deposits better than regular mineral spirit. A brush is handy, but an air nozzle is better. It also atomizes the atf/mineral spirit cocktail for higher high. Special mention goes to music score. Nice.

[@MidwestStreetCarsAuto]

they had em soaked in fluid and we ended up cleaning them with the parts washer after also

[@oikkuoek]

@@MidwestStreetCarsAuto The break-in oil needs to be slick 0w-30 or 5w-30 with lots of detergents. max 2000 miles and no pulls. Then you can go to 5w-40 and light load for the next 5K miles. After that oil change, it'll be fine. The slick and detergent is important to get the gunk and assembly lube out and not burn it into the bearing.

[@justinshearer3016]

wow.....i think thats the closest thing to a compliment we can get from you, and ill take it lol!!! thanks!

[@oikkuoek]

@@justinshearer3016 I don't do complements, not my style. But I do do constructive criticism, and give positive feedback when I see positive results. None of this is personal, or focused on negativity. Neither of those will benefit the progress. My goal here is MWSC&A at the top, and Crow with CJ into the winner's circle in Yellobelly, against Cantu, KcMaxx and Nate on 28's. You don't have to like it, or me, but I think we can agree the goal being achievable and worth pursuing. Just not there yet.
