[@Jeffsa12]

Man I'm really digging these engine related episodes Chief and Jackie! Brings back some good old memories. If two bores side by side are both 4.185 on a std 4.400 bore CL sbc, that leaves .215 between the cyl to seal the head gasket, which is plenty AFAIK. Now bore one of the holes another .020 @ 4.205, you'd only have .010 less @ ~.205 between the cyl's. Bore stability becomes a real concern though and more so on nitrous. It would likely have pretty crappy ring seal under full power with the bores moving around. In my mind, a 4.185, 4.4 bore CL sbc would be questionable for a high power nitrous deal. If that block proves savable on the main line, I'd sleeve the 4.205 hole and fill the block up to the water pump holes min, as a band aid before it's honed. Better yet consider switching it to methanol and fill the block all the way up to the deck.

[@jmr1970]

Chief, this guy is on the right track to sleeve over size cylinders. If your patching for now to put the money towards the rotating assy. Would be money well spent based on a Chinese block or any newer blocks. Love you and Jackie videos

[@supertunesupertune]

I would not re-sleeve the 4.205 cylinder unless it's broken... this will disturb the cylinders on each side too much and make them worse. Filling is a good idea either water pump hole on gas or full deck on methanol. Use a diamond plateau hone finish if possible. Set 2nd ring +.005 over the top ring and just reuse old rings so you don't have to buy multiple sets. Don't be too worried if the rings end up on the big side with Nitrous . .035 top and .040 2nd still will be ok with good breather system. Try and get .0028 on main clearance and .0025 on the rods as close as you can. I'm still building race engines at 63 (40 years +)

[@Jeffsa12]

@@supertunesupertune I'm sure his machinist would know how to finish the cylinders for whatever rings he decides to go with. Good point on the sleeves with siamese bores though. Sleeving could lead to disruption/distortion and weakening the interface/structural integrity of the adjacent bores. Seems we agree on filling the block though. Old retired guy here. Worked as a machinist in aerospace and ran an automotive machine shop. Built and dynoed my fair share of race engines over the years as well.

[@garylucier6817]

Thanks for telling the rest of the story...once those bearings straitened out the tangs and start to spin (who knows, bad line bore, too quick a rebuild job, clearances too tight or flat out not checked, rods not checked and resized after replacing rod bolts on the big end, or an unprimed startup in too cold weather when all the parts are shrunken to closest tolerances), the welding job began and extreme heat began radiating outward from 7 to 8, to Main 4 in a cascade eventually leading to the bent crank (no telling if it was bent slightly in a prior repair, not checked and just reused either), and each bore being differently fixed at different times (shown by the different bore sizes according to your detailed measuring), that block has been through hell and back a few times. Once he line bores it properly and balances the internals to match, new crank and hones the cylinders to custom match each piston overbore (since it appears you have the necessary pistons to correctly fill each hole, new rods and crank going in, and he only needs to match up 1 piston to bore as the other 7 are still appear useable from your inventory, and 1 main cap to repair, bearings and seals and reassembly and mild machining otherwise), it is a budget rebuild vs a new block and all new internals. It will be a fine spare in emergency use backup, you can quickly use for content while her other bullet waits for parts and to be completed, and get it again lined out, and know what it would do when and if you need to use it later. Hopefully the timing works perfectly for both of you this time, and it stays together, you get all motor pulls, a few spray pulls, a decent working tune that you can depend on and lots of data with no oiling issues. And that her parts come in and the other engine is completed in the meantime, so you can pull that 1 out whole and working, as I agree it may do even better than what it did since you already have a good data head start on the tune (as long as you pay strict attention to where that cam was installed last time...am sure you did keep great notes since you even re-checked rod clearances on the disassembly). Degreeing that cam to get close to the prior install will be key to using that prior data correctly as you know. He is right, proper balance of the reciprocating mass internally and proper clearances (main and rod bearings, piston to bore, ring gaps, etc), and that block will not even know the bores/pistons are all different sizes, though you will know if you do a compression check of each hole as combustion chambers at installed height heads on and torqued will vary slightly, though no more than a factory small block that has never been machined. Head combustion chambers that have received no work especially cast alum heads upon proper ccing will often show as much as a 2-3 cc difference between chambers, so there is that, and (I run a Stocker and we cannot touch the combustion head chamber at all, so no changing that mfg issue)...I have not done so on mine, but am sure since we can bore cylinder over to 80 thou over and still be within our ruleset before a block is out of compliance and unusable, but rest assured I am sure someone in the past has figured out the way to balance out the smaller head chamber cc issue to larger is to overbore only specific cylinders to even out and match cylinder to head volumes exactly on purpose and still stay within the very specific extreme ruleset we bought into and still take full advantage, where yours is just by former/current breakage and repair. Here is wishing your path on that repair is smooth for you both, and think you will already be getting showered with valves, call Billy and see what uncle Bob has on his shelves, as I am sure he has a bunch and may have just what you need.

[@jrdmotorsports9718]

Sorry to say, oil starvation caused this chain of events. #4 is the last to get oil. You starve #4 main to the point of Bronze, you kill #7 rod. Once the rod bearing disintegrates, the piston travels further in both directions. Now it's hitting the counterweights at BDC and valves and the cylinder head at TDC. If it doesn't rip the pin out of the piston on the bottom, it will hit the head on the compression stroke to the point it wants to stop the crank in it's tracks, bends the crank, and ejecto-mundo the rod. Especially at rpm. During overlap, It hits the open valve to the point of wanting to push it back up through the rocker and snaps the tips off the aluminum rockers. With steel rockers, it wants to bend pushrods...It doesn't take much for all of this to happen, as you were aware of when it first starting "acting" different. Will always give clues. Snowball effect, it all stemmed from starving #4 main. If it happened just like this before you got it, and it happened again while you have it, the issue lies in the current oil system. A few things I look for when I see this: -How much oil is being run? -Oil drainback. -Returns at the back of the heads? -Return in the valley? -Windage tray? And if so, ample return to the pickup? -is the pickup isolated in the pan? -Type of pump? Geroter or spur gear? -Windage -Aeration due to Windage or too much oil? -How much vacuum is being pulled at rpm? Oil pressure doesn't equal oil volume. 2 different things. Checking oil pressure at the back of the engine doesn't tell the whole story of what's going on up front. As for the block. It's very common for guys running nitrous to have slightly different bore sizes, as they only repair what is needed at the time of failure. It has seen it's fair share. However, wall thickness is NOT the issue with these blocks, as they are usually .250" thick at 4.200". I build A LOT of big inch small blocks at that bore and larger. At 4.250", they are still about .200" thick, which is plenty. Don't ever go by the "recommended" max bore size. BUT, the issue becomes sealing area for the gasket. BIG nitrous, you don't want a lot less than about .200" between cylinders. It also depends on how you are sealing it. A good setup can see roughly .185"-.190" before you start having real issues. 4.210" is the limit with nitrous for me, a small block at 4.250" is the limit for NA in a 4.400" bs block. Boost is where you really limit the bore for gasket sealing benefits.

[@confuse9]

I had a engine go bad 8000rpm 383, looks like the No. 2 main cap spun a bearing. Rod got a little hot, but bearings actually looked OK. Bought a new crank and had another block (mid 70s 350 4 bolt main) and had it machined to match the pistons. Best I can tell, the NO. 2 main cap walked a bit. The machine shop that did the new work likes to stake the caps to ensure they are tight so hopefully that doesn't happen again. So, $1200 or so to get the new block ready. $600 for a new chi-com crank. New rings, clean the pistons, check the rods.... I'm going to lower the rpms a bit and run a big block oil pump. BTW, the old crank looked good, probably could have been fixed .010 or .020 under - but I had it mag'd and it showed a crack right at the radius. It is now a boat anchor somewhere.

Looks like a rod bolt backing out and peeled the cap back. IDK how but no broken bolt and seeing the shape of what’s left that’s what it looks like. No bolt is getting pulled out of a rod without splitting and leaving threads.

[@jacbay4]

ust a note. We have built many Chevy engines for circle track. That oiling problem you had is one that we fixed by drilling a hole with a #10 or #12 fitting in the front where an original small blocked off or possibly just a flat spot is there. This feeds the main oil gallery for the mains FROM THE FRONT (aka front oiling). We blocked off the passage from the filter housing area that feeds the rear of the motor first. Then put a filter adapter plate with a#10 or #12 fitting out to a remote filter with an in/out to the new fitting in the front of the motor. This feeds all the mains evenly. We also put in .060 restrictors from the mains feeding the cam bearings. This keeps more oil to the mains feeding the rods because the cam bearings don't need that much oil. Hope this helps you out....

( It was a bought short block that I didn’t build ).

Thanks for the mention justin. I do know an engine. Being an award winning machinist and my first car was a 1972 gran torino sport. They made 888 of them.at 14 years old Mine wasnt the cobra jet 429. I had the c4 transmission and a high output 302 with a 4 barrel. It had 57000 original miles was pearl white. Needed new valve seats. It smoked like a banshee. My first truck was a 1983 chevy Silverado short wheel base 2wheel drive. Black all original it had the beauty rails amd beauty rings and got about 10 mpg with a 305. I've always worked on engines small and large from tearing my fathers 25 horse Johnson tiller handle boat motor apart one day when he was st work at the age of 4 or 5. You could say I've always been intrested in analyzing the internals and how they work in an engine. I work on all types. Most people dont know the difference in a 2 stroke and a 4 stroke. They think one you just add oil to the fuel or that they got powerbands in them actually a band lol or they dont have valves only ports. Well that's not always the case. My 353 Detroit 3 cylinder diesel engine in my skidder. Is actually a 2 stroke diesel with a blower and it has valves and camshaft all the other parts a 4 stroke diesel say a Cummins 6bt would have. Only engines I'm not hands on familiar with is the rotary engine or the turbine engine and some other exotic engines that are out there. If you can envision it you can make it our very creative creations all spring from imagination. I love the in depth video's talking about tolerance and clearance I nerd out on that shit. What I really need is an invitation from yall to come and help and be apart of the building and the work to wear my talents and skills can be of value and of use in something that matter's instead of a small logging operation that is one day going to get me killed.

Rock n Roll guy's, good stuff man! I myself cannot wait to see Jackie's motor in that deal, God that's gonna be a bad azz nitrous rig for sure!

[@scottlamadeleine2243]

You guys are so lucky to have Gerald. Cant wait to see Caddyjack up and running again

[@terra2805]

I'm pretty sure that small block will perform well once she's rebuilt. It doesn't sound all that bad. I was expecting worse initially tbh. I hope you get the parts you need soon because I really want to see how she's going to run this time around. I think it will surprise some folks! I can't wait until you've got Caddy Jack where you want it to be. I'm really looking forward to the street action! Loving the content guys, keep it coming! #midweststreetcats 🐈

Unfortunately there are a lot of engine shops that think they have a clue but dont. Add to that the ".001 of clearance is plenty" crowd and you have disaster in a cast iron box. Did you check ring gap? Is the block o-ringed? That would help with sealing between cylinders. Figure 8 with a single wire between the cylinders.

[@justinshearer3016]

not oringed.....heck im not even sure we could fit orings between the cylinders lol

[@AndreenMotorsports]

@justinshearer3016 if its that thin I dont see any gasket preventing cylinder crossover once you start to really spray it. And once it starts its just going to blow torch the block. I know its not in the budget for another block and pistons but spending money on the current one may just be the same as lighting it on fire, lol!

[@jeffsteeley4098]

You guys are awesome keep sending videos they are interesting 🚦

[@michaelfackler9716]

Love watching your videos , IMO I think the problem is coming from the screen door cylinder , it obviously was blowing the oil back in the oil gally causing loss of oil on the bearing and burning up , the other bearings were unaffected because of the extra pressure . Let that soak in , or not

EATMON RACE ENGINES SHOULD HAVE SOME USED TITANIUM EXHAUST VALVES, BOUGHTT 10 OFF HIM LIKE A MONTH AGO but there sitting at the border,, my intakes are only 2.180 but i just got 3 from manley shipped to m&m raceengines cause they have my heads

I look forward to every video.....thanks for the updates

[@troyjacobs68]

Absolutely love the wealth of knowledge you provide us with. I'm not a gear head but love watching your content. Still to this date the funniest video ever is when you and Shawn are comparing sparkplugs to soldiers . ROTGLMFAO everytime I watch it.

[@robbymccall6444]

Man I just glad y’all back or I just found you again. Love watching you and Jackie working together getting alone hanging out. I’m from S W Ga keep it up

[@deuceswild1304]

Looks like you guys will have the motor back together in no time. Should pick up some time at the track. Thanks for the video. Love the content.

Cheif wanted to pass some info on the SBC stuff, I am building a Pro charged SBC and was gonna wait 8-10 months for a Dart Lil M, but after doing some research and talking to a few builders, they all said World products Motown 2 Billet cap block/ BBC cam tunnel, also raised.134, with bushed .904 lifter bore, and so on.. is a way better platform.. I’ve always heard bad things with World stuff, but I guess they revamped in 2015 and have killer stuff now,, I’m in the process on my build, not sure if you guys are gonna keep building on a SBC platform, but if so..I’m super happy so far..’🤘🏻✌🏻

Justin, I'd box that oil pan up and send it to Billy in Ohio. And let him show off his talents on fixing this Aluminum pan for you. Great video as always. This is a very similar issue that we recently saw with a 6.0 (LY6) LS engine and the #3 cam bearing. But it since the engine had 528-K miles on it (Its been a Amish Taxi van since it was new in 2010) Its hard to complain about just needing cam bearings and a new cam and lifters.

[@jondahl3173]

I know 5.3 aluminum blocks have #3 cam bearing issues, sometimes you have to hone the #3 bearing in the block after install to get the cam to fit. Isn't LY6 a cast iron block? Never heard of this on cast iron.

[@chasechevy8933]

Oiling issues for the W 👍🏻 You most likely bought a tired engine that should have been gone thru before putting big power and rpm on it. When the bearing/crank clearances get too great, your oil needs at high rpm are compromised and the last journal to receive oil on that circuit will run dry and suffer 1st. I would suggest running a larger pan with more capacity assuming that you have a high flow oil pump. You may have ran the sump dry if that engine was already tired. Good luck guys

Chief love the show. I have learned a lot from this show thanks. Semper Fi

[@victoryakelley7290]

Oorah💪🏼

[@joejones2847]

Hooah!

[@crazywickedcustoms7272]

Thank you for sharing reminds me of what I was doing back when I was young, lol

[@colemanturnage6533]

Deffently blow out oil returns on the back two cylinders. I'd make sure all of them are clear and cleaned out but that all I'm picking up on it. May help may not

[@christhomas5794]

Jackie, you’ll be up there, kicking ass taking names, soon respect from the UK. Hi chief
