Volvo with Lamborghini V10 Engine is Damaged! Tear Down! Can I Repair it?

[@Spooly_]

Your channel is one of the few where I never skip a video. Just cool car content, no nonsense. Good luck with the engine rebuild!

[@cyberbalrog]

Steve Morris has recently done a video on welding badly damaged LS cylinder heads and replacing the valve seats. Seeing that you successfully welded the block for the volvoghini, I think that you would be able to do it. Best of luck with the rebuild!

[@MrDerwood1969]

Steve Morris also builds v10 lambo engines, you might reach out to him. He's in Michigan in the US

[@peterphilipse8792]

That was a billet head though.

[@Coombsly]

Issues with modern engines are that when casting parts they tend to use silicon within the mix, I think welding will be a pain

[@Reiner_Markenfreund]

@@Coombsly Das Risiko besteht darin, dass sich die im elementlegierten Gefüge eingebundenen Wasserstoffatome zu H2-Molekülen und größeren Gruppen zusammenlagern können. Dies führt zu Schmelzzonenrandlunkern. Deshalb ist eine Mindestmaterialtemperatur erforderlich, die es dem Wasserstoff ermöglicht, gleichmäßig verteilt zu bleiben und somit das Gussteil nicht zu beschädigen.

[@magnusdanielsson2749]

Seems like the V8 guys in the US weld head fairly often. For instance Brand Racing recently made a video with him welding a head for weingartner.

[@ut748]

Been watching for a few years now. Love the channel. So refreshing to see someone who isn't just shoving a LS into everything.

[@steveperry4151]

Nothing but mad respect for such a complex build!

[@Harko-]

Great to hear you already started making plans for the repairs. Sleeving does seem to be the best option indeed. Specially as it also allows you to salvage that second block. Best of luck, and thanks for sharing!

[@lwghia]

Thank you for not doing another LS, LS swaps get so boring. This is why I watch you! The master

[@davyhammink7371]

Ofcourse we comment to keep u motivated!!! Keeppushing!!!

[@marok1986]

I love it when people go their own way, it's a pleasure to watch You from Poland :)

[@rchobby1979]

Sad look of the engine 😢 Fantastic that you stick with Audi/Lamborghini! Swapping for LS is done too many times already.

[@Labergemusic]

I am the biggest LS fan ever and I could not agree more

[@Franksey180]

@@LabergemusicV10 Audi makes this project more interesting than had it been an LS project.

[@Labergemusic]

@@Franksey180 yes, that's what I was saying :)

Keep going with the V10's! Its nice to see engines that is not everywhere. Allways enjoy your projects

[@guidorollard2944]

Peter... You are some kind of a professor on this jungle of elektronics, controlling everything. I, for myself keep it simple as possible, and most mechanical. 😄

[@bgj2940]

The Gen 2 cylinder head was known to drop valves. If you're going to reuse the heads make sure you reguide and install upgraded springs.

[@UKBUILT]

Yeah I have heard this, valve float at high rpm?

[@Reiner_Markenfreund]

@@UKBUILT Das liegt daran, dass Vibrationen im Ansaugsystem und im Zylinder, wenn das Einlassventil offen ist, bei akustischer Resonanz dazu führen können, dass das Ventil wie eine Fahne im Wind flattert. Ein Druck von +2,7 Bar im Einlass und eine negative Saugkraft von -3 Bar unter dem Ventil entspricht können sich beim Schließen bis zu verzehnfachen. Dann wirken effektiv 60 Bar aus dem Kanal in den Zylinder, dessen Kolben, nur wenige Grad nach dem unteren Totpunkt fast stehend, aus Angst auf die Kurbelwelle schlägt, bevor überhaupt eine Zündung stattgefunden hat.

[@UKBUILT]

@@Reiner_Markenfreund Sehr interessant 👍 danke 😎

[@preventor2]

​@Reiner_Markenfreund higher seat pressure may remedy this situation, or these factors are not easily overcome by simply some stronger springs?

[@Reiner_Markenfreund]

@@preventor2 Betrachten Sie die Struktur der Ventile. Ein höherer Sitzdruck durch statisch stärkere Ventilfedern ist nicht ratsam. Möglich wäre jedoch die Verwendung von leichteren Ventilen gleicher Form und Volumen, aber mit höherer Festigkeit. Dies könnte allerdings das Risiko von Hochdrehzahleffekten in einen kostspieligen Bereich verschieben. Als nächstes sollte idealerweise die elastische Dehngrenze der Pleuelschrauben unter Berücksichtigung des Kolbenkontaktrisikos am Zylinderkopf beachtet werden. Es wird sehr kostspielig, wenn die Pleuel die Geduld verlieren.

[@poorfellamycountry]

Quality, knowledgeable and honest content. Every time, thanks.

[@Reiner_Markenfreund]

Im Video um 23:00 ist ein Pleullagerbild zu sehen. Es zeigt die Signatur einer sehr hohen materialakustischen Stehwelle auf dem Pleullager, die zwar sichtbar, aber aufgrund ihrer Erzeugung durch eine longitudinale und sehr laute Materialsignatur nicht fühlbar ist. Wird ein Bauteil nicht harmonisch zur Planckmasse multipliziert mit einer Primzahl konstruiert, treten unerwünschte Schwingungen auf, die die Qualität des Rundlaufs und den Wirkungsgrad leicht bis fatal beeinträchtigen können.

[@matgee8892]

You know i have realized that through your channel and the comments i am always learning things. I really enjoy seeing the technical stuff and gaining knowledge.

[@Reiner_Markenfreund]

Mir geht es ähnlich. Als ich den Kommentar über Silizium im Aluminiumgefüge las, habe ich bezüglich des Wasserstoffaspekts im Gefüge geantwortet. Jedoch habe ich bewusst die Möglichkeit außer Acht gelassen, dass auch ein Problem mit der Existenz von SiO2 an diesem Silizium bestehen kann. Wenn sich an SiO2 noch H2 anlagert, resultiert dies in einem Kristallwasserproblem, das eine erhebliche Festigkeitsabnahme und eine hohe nachfolgende Korrosionsrate zur Folge haben kann.

[@CrazzaRaft]

You have to keep that piston as an art piece

[@Haps_q]

The head also, looks so sick with the valve stuck in the intake.

[@PeterBjorck]

Yes i will. With the broken valve in the hole of piston!

[@hellreavernz1739]

never skip your vids such good content. love the old volvos.

[@John-yf8qh]

Hello Peter! I think that cylinder gouge could possibly be welded and rebored with great care taken not to cook the cylinder wall in one spot. You’ll get there mate, all the very best for the future of this build!

[@longkeithdiablo8812]

Love your videos and your cars. Thank you for showing them to us that aren't from Sweden 👍😎🇬🇧

[@ricepony33]

Listening to this video about multiple ecu’s while sharpening my chainsaw blade.

[@Emma_Reine]

Most of these blocks that I have seen have broken after the steel sleeves were inserted during assembly. The standard blocks are good up to max. 1200 hp, after that you should rather switch to billet. best regards

[@davidsmiththeaiguy]

Commenting for the algorithm. Hope you get more exposure and ultimately more adsense revenue to finance the rebuild. Truly appreciate your channel and the content. Keep doing what you do

[@DD-DD-DD]

That other broken block is a good opportunity to use it as a "practice block" if you use your CNC to bore out your main block. No time like the present to pick up a new skill. The damage to the squish areas on the spare head probably won't interfere with the piston at all, just make sure no sharp edges to cause preignition or break off into FOD. Machinist might say to fill it with weld before surfacing.

[@kr-gs5pt]

If you use the cylinder head from the other engine I would try to machine and polish out the scratches. Sharp edges create "starting spots" for detonation. It is best to make them as smooth as possible to reduce risk of knock. the compression rate will be slightly lower which is no problem.

[@murmur3966]

Hello Hello From Canada!!! You should contact Dallas Performance to get a set of their ductile iron cylinder sleeves that they use for their billet blocks. Because their blocks should have similar dimensions, the sleeves should be already to be pressed in your block after your machining is done. I hope you have good luck. stay safe, stay healthy and are as happy as you possibly can be in all your future endeavors. Go fast!! 🤘😁👍

[@thethiccend]

Now you got a Lamborghini R8 Puzzle! I would cry and run away, but you just keep on - great attitude, professional.😀

[@nicolaireimann1761]

Please keep on doing what you’re doing, really love your videos and your work, nobody does anything as cool and different as you👍🏻

[@ibana8449]

Always enjoy your matter of fact analysis Peter, Whether at a car meet explaining what you are looking at, or here displaying your engineering prowess. Chin up and look forward to hearing the V10 running again. No doubt modified and better......Ivan

[@Beauloqs]

That sucks, my sympathies. Same thing happened to me on my XKR, dropped a valve in #3 .....half the valve seat ended up in #7, very messy.

[@robworrall6832]

Peter, about polishing out the ports, I think you will find that very polished inlet ports can cause fuel dropout - a little roughness helps the fuel to stay atomised. Exhaust ports, I am not sure! Love what you are doing and I am very excited to see this car running again - maybe you could allow fan funding? I think many people would like to help you on this extremely cool journey.

[@inaluk1001]

I always look forward to your videos. Nobody on YT is doing it like you.

[@holdehj]

hey dude, i love your content style. quality audio, nice visuals. no random music playing all the time. in depth views into repairs. when your car broke you didnt just call it a day, you stuck around and got some nice footage for us. cheers from australia

[@MgBaggg]

Loving this content, you're an inspiration. As far as I'm aware you can reuse that head from the second engine after a slight resurface. As long as it doesn't have drastic peaks, there should be no hot zones during combustion. I've done it with no issues on an M52

[@LaPetitWookiee]

Been watching for a few years now and always enjoy the video's. People suggesting you LS swap the 240 MidVo just don't get it. That would be like telling Bad Obsession Motorsport to just put an R1 bike engine in Project Binky. Some people don't understand that doing something different is difficult, but that's part of the challenge that makes it so rewarding.

[@AlbertAGhazaleh]

Another great video and a lot information about how everything is setup. In which is a lot to maintain and control.

[@Reiner_Markenfreund]

Im Video bei Minute 8:00 wird die Welle zum Differential der Vorderachse mit zwei Lagern im Motorblock geführt. Oberhalb der Welle, im Schwingungsmodus 0,75 zu 0,25, befindet sich der defekte Zylinder. Die Frage ist, ob die Welle ein Kreuzgelenk oder ein Kugelgleichlaufgelenk im Lastverlauf vor dem Differential besitzt.

[@gaborungvari784]

wow, quite a lot of work ahead...go on Peter! Amazing that how many different tuning software are needed for this setup! Really hats off for making it work :) Thanks for the video, good one again! :)

[@EK4rguy]

Definitely one of my favourite YT channels and such an under rated channel too!!

[@stevewaghorn2029]

Great idea to "practice" on the damaged spare block, nothing to loose and to get experience learn from it. I would tidy up the spare head with the slight damage and then decide if it was going to be for the number one engine or the spare engine head, I bet it would be fine. Thanks for putting up these videos, thoroughly enjoy them!. Steve,

[@jrifda1]

Cletus McFarland just recently did a video where a block had significant Damage including crank journals, and it underwent extensive welding and machining after it was machined, the engine was rebuild and send back to service. But really enjoying your videos keep up the good work:))))

[@GeoffSeeley]

Thanks for showing all the computer software you use. That's quite a complex set of systems you have to manage. Good luck with the rebuild!

[@olewurtz7625]

Always enjoy your videos and your enthusiasm. Not being an engine builder, but I’d think that any “scratches” or “imperfections” in the squish area could cause Pre-detonation. Please correct me and explain why not.

[@UKBUILT]

I'm planning to sleave my V10 on my CNC 😎 your blocks in better condition than mine. I had to do alot of research into the piston and liner materials, the pistons are iron coated on the thrust faces. Most people that sleave them run billet uncoated pistons. I was planning to try the standard piston in a ductile iron liner. Some older engines used iron pistons and iron block, the risk is gauling of simular metals. I would be interested to see what you do with yours 👍 Good luck 😎

[@liftedcj7on44s]

Be careful with the transmission tune, Have to be careful with clutch pressure's/timing. I build these transmissions and there were some tunes from very well known Vendors here in the states that were cranking the clutch pressure's too high and causing the Dodson Billet large clutch basket to break. If you don't have it the newest Dodson Clutch setup uses Springs in between the clutch plates to help with high rpm shifting/clutch plate drag. Driveability on a Dodson 10/10 clutch with these wavy springs is 100% like stock as well.

[@UKBUILT]

Keep up the good work 👍 I enjoy your videos 😎 I also need to repair my V10

I don’t know anything about anything but imho you can machine a layer off from the "squish" area in the other engine you had for spare. It will lessen the compression ratio, but you can throw more boost to fix it.
