Steve is like a teacher I had when I was studying mechanical engineering: a man with practical experience, in for a joke at a timebut still very serious, never afraid to be humble, and always asks the question “why is it that way” at the right time, and wanting to teach everyone what he has learned to those who are interested. This teacher gave material science, construction calculations, and a heck of a lot of other subjects, and restored harley davidson gearboxes as a hobby. In those years he had done more than 150 gearboxes. Steve, Kyle and crew, you guys are amazing, and please never quit teaching us on things you learn along the way of failure or success!

I use to work on a top alcohol team. We killed 2 engine with 1 broken valve in the same way. It broke, pieces bounced around, then went up into the supercharger (we didn't look up in there).

[@Jtheman497]

@Ayedidyae LMAO Forza kids okay bud. There is an intake manifold that the supercharger sits on. We didn't always unbolt the supercharger from that manifold. Just unbolt from the heads and move to a different engine. The piece of the valve was in that manifold. That stayed attached to the supercharger as we swapped from one motor to the other. Simple enough for you to understand?

Many years ago I worked for the Chevrolet dealer in Middleville and I was working on a 6.5 Diesel truck. The end of the glow plug had broken off while I was trying to remove it. I told my service manager that the engine would need to come apart to remove the offending piece. We argued about the damage that could result by running the motor with that big of a piece in there. I gave in and put new glow plugs in it. Imagine my surprise after it ran for a bit that I would find the glow plug tip laying on the floor right under the tail pipe.

My mom used to have a 1974 jaguar v12. The engine is setup with 4 side draft carbs, 2 for each bank. The two banks are completely separate from eachother except for what they call a balance tube or something like that which basically a piece of roughly 3/4 steel tubing that balances the 2 sides as the name implies. One day the car dropped a valve seat in one cylinder. It got beat to pieces and some of those pieces migrated to another cylinder on that side as well as some pieces passed through that balance tube and took out 2 cylinders on the other side as well. Upon tear down only 1 valve seat was missing but 4 cylinders were absolutely beat to crap.

Back in the 70’s I worked at a truck repair yard. A big GMC dump truck was in for a brake job and while we were working on it, the owner of the truck decide to do a tune up on the 478 CID v6. An hour later he asked if we had a junk box of small screws. Later when he started it there was a horrible clatter. So he gave it the full Italian tuneup and it suddenly got quiet. So the guy smiles to him self and declares victory. We had to wait a additional day for parts so we stayed late and pulled the head , which led us to drop the pan . Turns out the piston was broken all the way to the skirt. It probably would have lasted 5 minutes on the freeway.

Back in the late 80's I built a 68 Olds w30 rocket motor for my 77 cutlass supreme. I was fairly new to building as this was my 3rd ever. One of the main bearing clearances was at the edge of the spec but still good. Broke the motor in good n proper and had run it for about 3 months as a daily driver. That one bearing had moved just the slightest and the piston started touching the head so lightly the machine ring marks on the top of the piston were showing on the head but not hitting hard enough to flatten them out of existence on the piston. I probably would have never known there was an issue if the oil hole had not covered about half of the journal hole and spiked oil pressure enough to blow the fill cap off the motor and spew oil all over the windshield at 70 mph on the Jersey turnpike. It is amazing what something spinning that fast with constant air pressure changes inside can handle or even do to parts flying around in it. Glad your motor lives to run another day.

No need to split the housing on the TB. Slide shaft in, install throttle blade and tig into place. No screws. Sorry if it seems like im just running my mouth. Not my intention.

@richwood8650 its posible to do it your way. Only? even spot welding can deform the shaft. But thats the same for welding the screws. Second? now you have a fixed unit. If it get damaged its junk, trow it away and put a new one on. And you get ,,rough,, weld spots. Air passing wil start to swirl and flow less easy. But also this is the same for the welds on the screws.

Also some of the valveseals where bad so decided to take the heads off. Then i found out there was 1 bore with a scratch in it and a damaged piston. Took the piston out and found out it was missing close to an inch of piston ring that ripped through the top of the piston and somehow left through the exhaust port after only making light contact with the top of the piston about 3 times and causing minor damage to the bore (was able to hone is out). Strange thing was aswell that i did a compression check beforehand when trying to diagnose the slight misfire and all was within spec.

Hi Steve, love your videos. I agree with the comments about the threaded remains of the screw possibly is stuck in the head on the cylinder with the 2 indentations in the piston. As action has to make an opposite reaction, the remains has to have made contact with the cylinder head on both places.
