BMW N20 F30 Build Episode 6: Cylinder Head Assembly

[@mikesworld6646]

Yo thanks for the vids and the full assembly process man

[@kevinmpe8363]

Hey bro. How do you accurately set the camshafts at tdc without the tc on? Do you just rotate the camshafts separately until cylinder 1 is at top most then lock with the tool.

[@ShizaP]

What happened to the series?

[@BabsBrijmohun-xf2xj]

Hi. Thanks for the info. I just need to know if there is a timing mark setting for the cam actuators

[@scottcrawford4148]

The Elring valve seals are red and blue. Do the blue valve seals go on the exhaust side?

[@infidel900rr]

Hey man, any recent progress, is the car back on the road?? Would love to see a video of the car put together with a summary review of your project. thanks

[@GeoDayrit1]

Hey! There has been a bit of progress and the car is back on the road, was forced to get a lot done off camera so I could get back to driving the car since I was borrowing a car at the time of making this series. I will be doing an update/up to speed video for the car hopefully this month assuming my schedule lines up to give me the time to do so

[@robloxperalta9646]

Hi buddy thanks for your videos, just wanted to know what repair manual you used?

[@joshrodriguez5718]

When you install the camshaft the barcode has to be on top?

[@GeoDayrit1]

When setting timing yes, when assembling not quite as critical but would save some hassle by having them already in the right position for locking them in place with the timing tool

[@GiorgioBerrospi]

Did you replace the valve guides? Which ones did you get, if so?

[@GeoDayrit1]

Yes I did replace them, I called up a place called SI Valves and they happened to have some that were very close to the original guides dimensions and I had those sent to me. They are the same material as the original guides and were put into my cylinder head without issue

[@GiorgioBerrospi]

@@GeoDayrit1 thank you sir

[@GeoDayrit1]

@@GiorgioBerrospi no problem!

[@nilaht9]

Good detailed video. I never asked you, What’s your power goals?

[@GeoDayrit1]

For me I’m shooting for 400-450, I’d like 500 eventually but only on ethanol

[@nilaht9]

@@GeoDayrit1 Respectable numbers. When I got started I couldn’t stop. Originally my goal was 600. I think I will crack into the 800’s. I hoping to be the first in the 10’s and 9’s.

[@GeoDayrit1]

@@nilaht9 that’d be sick to get into the 10s or 9s, excited to see your build come together, trying to keep it pretty streetable/stock enough because of emissions, but also strong enough to take track days and auto cross

[@nilaht9]

@@GeoDayrit1 No emissions here in Florida. It’s a good thing she’s not my daily. 800+ horsepower daily kinda crazy.

[@GeoDayrit1]

@@nilaht9 yeah haha for a daily definitely not the best choice for fuel economy putting around 😂

[@WickedTunerz]

Any video with the block assembly?

[@GeoDayrit1]

I’m working on the next video still going over the more niche stuff with the block like clearancing for the rods and the process for me timeserting the deck of the block for the studs. It’s going to be a more picture commentary style because of how the last half of assembling and then reassembling the top end of the engine again because of the original threads in the block. Been a little bit of a struggle but it is coming feel free to ask me questions here or on Instagram and I can get some photos over to you and help out if needed!

[@bostonzahradnik6318]

I’m rebuilding one of these heads for my brother does anyone know if you need the tool to set the caps above the lifters or if you just bolt them On like he did

[@austinmaluleke5054]

What is the spring tool name and where can I get it

[@GeoDayrit1]

I purchased mine on amazon it was marked as a N20 Valve Spring compressor for the intermediate rocker arm springs, the other compressor tool I used is a normal c-clamp style valve spring compressor

[@Gouranga552]

any update on the build?

[@nunslinger]

How much hp f30 328i holds on stock internals?

[@scottcrawford4148]

240 HP

[@nilaht9]

Did you use the stock springs?

[@GeoDayrit1]

Yeah I stuck with the stock springs on my valvetrain don’t believe I’ll be hitting the limit where an upgrade is necessary, I believe the super tech kits for the s/n55 work for our motors as well if you’re looking for an upgrade, also think Harry has got something in the works too

[@nilaht9]

@@GeoDayrit1 Yeah man, I swapped everything. Did you call Crower for the cams?

[@GeoDayrit1]

@@nilaht9 I did not for this motor unfortunately no time, motors got to go back in by mid this month and be run in, been without the car longer than planned, but eh that’s part of the hobby, not to be without the hiccups

[@nilaht9]

@@GeoDayrit1 I understand 100%, I wish I can say the same. Unfortunately, I know it’s going to be a good minute. Car being completely gutted and rewired. Transmission, engine and fabrication.
