Tottaly, my son has a mustang. And recently wanted me to help him do some work on it. We started with headers and X pipe.Yea we had to drill out bolts that snaped off due to corrosion. He still has a problem understanding why ford would use such corrosive materials in manufacturing. I told him a lot of it comes from failure to understand how to prep your work. I let him watch your video to help him understand better. His first words after watching was" that was so simple he should send a copy to ford motor company." LOL Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the information. I'm currently working on (my first mechanic project!) a 1984 Cadillac Fleetwood with the factory 4.1L V8 (HT4100), replacing the intake manifold gasket and many other things. This is a huge project to work on, one thing after another with this engine. There isn't many videos online that go into any detail about intake manifolds or even engines, in general. You explained everything very clearly and make things easy to understand in all of your videos. Combined with a big shop manual, your videos are a big help!

@@PetesGarage yes sir! Thank you for that, I'm glad to know they are worth the time to rebuild. I see it as an engine that just needs TLC and follow up with regular scheduled maintenance. The car really is in good condition other than the few engine issues, not a scratch on the body, vinyl top in near perfect shape. Everyone wants to throw this engine away, honestly I've come to like this (not so loved) HT4100. it's given me an opportunity to really learn how an engine works and learn the primitive emissions control set-up of 1984. I'm looking through most of your videos and learning some pretty cool stuff! Thank you for all you do, Pete! Going to rewatch the intake manifold videos!

Then I give em a once over with Brake cleaner. Usually get a very nice looking bolt. I have even went as far as taping off threads and priming and painting a bolt head. lol. It sounds weird but its always the little details people notice the most. Plus black bolt heads on a red block looks awesome lol.

Old school is to smear some grease on the tap, it'll pick up most of the debris loosened by the chasing out. Personally, I prefer to use a small "T" bar type tap holder but that'll be a question of preferences, of course. Another old school trick is to use a standard bottom/finishing tap but lightly grind the cutting edge so it cleans the threads but it minimises the chance of it removing parent material from the tapped part. Nice explanation on the galvanic corrosion problem, too, BTW.

I've replied to many comments that say I'm over cautious that I've never had an engine fail from being too clean. If you do happen to wander into a pro shop, you can be polite as possible so as not to appear to be a wise ass. If they're smart, they'll try to learn from because nobody knows everything. I learn something new everyday.

Fantastic Pete. A Great video. I bought a 355 sbc a few years ago that had been blown up. The silicon between the intake and the block was about 1/2 an inch thick and everywhere but where it needed to be. I knew as soon as I saw that it was poorly built with a lack of consideration. It had only be run for about a month before it calved, when disassembling it to see what had gone wrong, some of the cam lobes were nearly gone. Low mileage, I assume no assembly lube and poorly put together was visually obvious as well as internally.

First let me say you produce the best automotive videos I have seen on KZbin bar none! Your use/overuse of the term FM drives home it's importance, you could use ten different terms for grime,,dust, grit,or gasket trimmings would not all stick.I am an NACE certified senior corrosion technologists and your explanation on galvanic corrosion was technically perfect, I would have used a copper/copper sulphate half cell just because you can make one in minutes. Remember your heads and bloke will be " protecting the bolts " If you can paint the bolts to reduce current flow and you will reduce the aluminum lose, be careful or you can focus the area of sacrifice ie you could sacrifice a good amount of aluminum evenly, but of you were 99.9% in protecting the aluminum it would take the same amount from the .1% vulnerable exposed aluminum Keep up the outstanding work 979-824-1110

Great video, Pete! I learned the perfect way to put my new aluminum intake on my 460. Thanks! I have a different subject question. My valve covers were leaking and I removed both covers with my fingers(no wrench) so they were all loose and there was 3 different sizes of bolts used. Is there a way to find out which size bolts I need for the valve covers AND intake manifold? Napa and O'rileys couldn't look it up for me. Thanks again. Adam

Most valve covers are 1/4-20. Intake is most likely 3/8-24

Thanks. I learned al lot from your chart. The marine industry has to employ sacrificial anodes to hull exteriors to combat electrolysis. I've wondered if the effects of galvanic corrosion might be increased by electrolysis within car engines.

You're the engine surgeon...dude! That's a super clean build! Why not a anti-seaze on the stainless bolts or one of the thread lockers? Is anti-seize really wrong in that situation? Thanks for your awesome video!
@PetesGarage
@PetesGarage 8 жыл бұрын
Thanks David. Anti-seize acts as a lubricant and changes the torque values. i do not think it's necessary. A thread locker is also a lubricant and I only use sparingly in a couple spots, mostly accessory mounting bolts

Try Permatex high heat "spray copper" form-a-gasket. Just paint the gasket surface. let stand for 1 minute till tacky then apply. no mess no fuss little if any squeeze out complete gasket surface coverage. I use 2 coats. 1 to seal the gasket and the other 1 minute later to seal the head surface wait 1 minute and apply. LOVE the idea of powder coating the intake inside surfaces. never thought of that. Talk about a time saver! THANKS!!

Pete, I am replacing my upper and lower intakes on my '89 Bronco 351 EFI. How important would it be for me to use a thread chaser on the intake-to-head bolt holes? Would you recommend waiting until the gasket maker is "spongy" to install intake or do it when it's still "wet"? And finally, do you recommend gasket maker between the lower intake and upper plenum also? Thanks so much for your videos!
@PetesGarage
@PetesGarage 7 жыл бұрын
If you did not have a problem taking the bolts out, just clean out the holes with air. Install with the gasket maker wet for silicone, tacky for high tack. Yes, for the plenum as well, not too much though

Question: That seems like a lot of RTV that comes out the front. What do you do to prevent that RTV from squishing into the motor? Seems like it could break off and clog an oil passage, no?
@anthonybendos4191

Your are absolutely right about they. Basically what they do is let it cure for a while so it won't be as bad as being really wet

That is an excellent question. Tony is correct when he says it cures and won't break off. You should try to limit the amount.

Hey Pete! Recently started rebuilding a 351w. I remember that we ran it before but as soon as we would try to rev it, it would fall flat on its face. when i removed the intake manifold, I saw that one of the gaskets was hanging off of the edge of the block and was not completely covering the surface, leaving a gap for air to get into the motor. Could this have been the cause of the motor falling on its face? Thanks for your time creating these videos!

No, it won't weld, but it will change the torque curve and you may not have it properly fastened.

When placing the Intake on the engine do you not worry about the RTV squishing out through the other side? By other side i mean inside the china wall. and if so, what measures do you take to ensure the RTV only squishes out instead of inward? thanks pete.

it does squish inward as well as outward. however the small overhang it makes is negligible and RTV is not oil soluble, so no damage done :)
