The process took me and my buddy Paul almost two days but the results were amazing and now I can carry on getting the car finished in order to make a profit and continue the journey to reaching that Porsche.

I have to give a massive shout out to Nevlock Performance in Coventry for hooking me up with the rebuild kit used in this video. I also want to shout out Dave Ruston Engines in Stoke on Trent for all of the machine shop work on this engine.

[@flippingcarsrepairs]

Well done you made that look easy i had my fingers crossed when u got it started👍

[@adambutler48]

Thanks man! I had my fingers crossed too!!! 🤣🤣

[@paulsanderson1954]

Great video, Adam. Look forward to catching up with you next month. 😊

[@adambutler48]

Hey man! Yes for sure!!! I can’t wait to see you both! Thank you so much for your help on this one!! Will have some fun this summer. Let’s plan a road trip together!

[@darronbutler3325]

Well done Ad what a excellent job to build an engine for the fist time mega scary stuff done to perfection. Well done fella.

[@adambutler48]

Thanks Darron! Been a while coming but pleased to get this one out now! Wait for the updates! Lots to cover and lots of adventures this year! Can’t wait for you to come out here too!

[@MichaelMitchell-jq9bz]

Looking good big man

[@adambutler48]

How are you big guy? Miss you

[@MichaelMitchell-jq9bz]

All good here missing you to bro

[@fossilfish786]

Good efforts bud.

[@adambutler48]

Thanks man! Well pleased it’s not still in thousands of pieces!

[@markmawson1]

I looked like it's the first rebuild you have done becauewhen you were torquing the head bolts they didn't look like 90° turns, don't be surprised you end up with head gasket issues

[@adambutler48]

Hey, thanks for watching! Yes it was the first build. I’m sure we mentioned that? And we did use the correct tightening procedure with torque and then degree tightening, apologies I didn’t do a great job of explaining or showing that in the video. Really appreciate the feedback though 👌🏻🏎️🏎️

[@user-iw5zg4nj9e]

Great video, but the final test is whether it lasts under boost and for any length of time!

[@adambutler48]

Very true words… I guess only time will tell! Thanks for watching! 🏎️🏎️

[@user-iw5zg4nj9e]

@@adambutler48 It looks like you did a decent job and were mindful of the main things which can screw things up. Fingers crossed.

[@Dipper88]

Fair play to you man. Ambitious little project but all came good. (I'd say you were fairlu relevied !)

[@adambutler48]

Thanks man, relieved is certainly how I felt when I heard it crank! I’d love to do another one again!

[@flippingcars101]

Lol you need to stop leaving me bro 😢, Iv been checking up to see if you have uploaded but you hadn’t. Good to have you back bro.

[@adambutler48]

Hey brother how are you?? Thanks for this! I keep meaning to get things out but life has just got in the way all this time. What’s new in your world?

[@flippingcars101]

Nothing new but since you back il start uploading again, my new channel is @weflipanycar

[@flippingcars101]

Well done on getting the car sorted bro 😎.

[@adambutler48]

Yeahh do it man, Let me check out the new channel...

[@NowsNu]

Awesome job lads! I'm still curious what the issue was exactly with the very first startup, always eager to learn -) cheers !

[@flippingcarsrepairs]

Maybe a earth 🤔

[@adambutler48]

Bang on! Turns out it was a bad earth on the started! But the issue was from under the fuse box not the usual spot 🤯🤯

[@carlclark5708]

Hi mate any links for parts used thanks

[@Richard25000]

Whats the bores oval and taper. Whats your wall clearance Whats your trust clearance Whats your mains and rod bearing clearances. What about valve shimming.. So much not done or checked.. all these details are ignored, which makes the difference in power and reliability and life span.

[@adambutler48]

Hey Jack!

[@flippingcarsrepairs]

Were have you been hiding 😂😂😂

[@adambutler48]

Feels like I’ve been living under a rock for the last 8 months man!

[@shujabeg7625]

Why would you not get the upgraded stem seals that have a built on washer to keep them seated

[@adambutler48]

The stem seals that we used were the ones that came in the rebuild kit straight from Nevlock Performance. If I had bought everything individually then I probably would have done so! Thanks for watching man! 🏎️

[@shujabeg7625]

@adambutler48 I checked nevlock a while back and they sell them s standard on there full rebuild kit. What pistons did you use?

[@adambutler48]

@@shujabeg7625 we used the Wossner 79.5mm pistons with Nevlocks own branded Conrods 👍🏼
