It’s actually great piece for any young enthusiast to learn how an actual engine is put together, from a smaller perspective. While yes it’s small, and parts may differ, one could learn how to put big engines together from this, all the way from tearing it down as well. It really gets to the basic fundamentals and functionality of how a big engine is built.

Thanks, that was fun to watch. Made me think of working on my '66 Dodge Dart with a "slant 6". I was lucky to have a good friend who was an excellent mechanic who taught me how to do a tune-up (new plugs, points, rotor, condenser, and distributor cap) most importantly how to use a feeler gauge to set the new points correctly. He advised me to always buy "racing parts", whenever possible (a little more expensive, but well worth it because they last longer). He taught me how to replace brake shoes and gave me the confidence to do it by myself. My next car, a Dodge Aspen wagon had the same slant six engine, so I saved a ton of money on car maintainance.

Inline sixes, back then, were carbureted and the exhaust manifolds were cast to create a hotspot underneath the intake so the air-fuel mix would be vaporized. Also, the one piece exhaust manifold was cheap to cast and quick to install on the assembly line. Performance was a very secondary consideration for those engines. Ford DID make a special high-flow exhaust manifold for its Heavy Duty versions of the 300 six but, they are hard to find. The HD 300 was often found in F-350 and larger trucks, small and mid-sized school buses, and other applications where it would be running at full power almost continuously.

@@LionWithTheLamb Yes, the HD manifold had more interior volume which enabled surprising flow performance and the downward exit was sized for a 2.5" pipe instead of the usual 2" pipe. But, the engine bays of the bigger trucks could accommodate that. Putting one in a F-150 or comparable van would require a special mandrel-bent exhaust head pipe to make it fit and flow properly.

@@armLocalhost You are clueless, aren’t you? It’s a proven fact that it was a how things work, you just don’t have the intellect to understand it. It used to be common in the automotive world for people to remove a thermostat thinking it would make their car run cooler, it didn’t. The operating temps look lower, but as soon as you stop the engine, temps will rise all the way to overheating. It takes time for heat to transfer, so the coolant has to move slow enough to absorb heat. Same with v8 jet boats, a restrictor is run instead of a thermostat to slow the water enough to absorb heat. Don’t run one and you will overheat and seize the engine while showing low water temp. So, try again when you have an idea what you are talking about. I’ve been an engine builder for 30 years and know what I’m talking about.

@johnnyq90 i think that the water pump problem it's that the turbine blades are spinning in the wrong direction, viewing the pump it can be seen that the turbine blades could be installed in both positions, changing that will improve the performance of the turbine drastically

That's why you see the use of a torque limiting driver for a lot of them, that's the clicks you're hearing when he's tightening screws, it reaching it's torque limit. Not getting cross-threaded bolts may also be a fun task lol

Seems odd how the timing needs to be at the far end. It would be worth checking at no.1 tdc on the compression stroke that the rotor points to no.1 lead on the cap. It may be possible to set the distributor mid range and move the lead to the nearest button, which would allow better timing adjustment. It did sound like it was cross-firing during first start.

You should also look at building some type of an alternator or generator for it so it doesn't need an external battery to operate... just an idea, but it would be something interesting to see you build. It would also be interesting to see if you could engineer and build a turbocharger for that engine. Not a supercharger driven off the crankshaft, an actual turbocharger using exhaust gas to spin the compressor.

There's a turbocharger keychain manufacturer out there, that actually makes a working miniature scale dual ball bearing turbocharger that would fit this application perfectly. They even make little compressor maps for them! So no engineering required.

For the headgasket, instead of just metal you might try a multi-layer steel design. Do three/four layers that add up to the stock gasket thickness, and maybe so a very tiny bead of silicone around the oil and water jackets like OEM MLS gaskets do. Would account for expansion and etc, and would seal great. Also, for the leaky gaskets I see, I'd honestly just use some RTV. A tiny smear, to be nice and smooth, let it get tacky, then clamp it down and dry for 24 hours. Then it shouldn't ever leak again.

Im interested in how the crank gets lubricated? also the head showed no lubrication at all, except the grease you applied. How long is this engine expected to last ?

@BlackPill-pu4vi 6 ай бұрын
The crank is probably splash lubricated. The head and cam gear probably has to be periodically greased.

Liked that engine. Would it not rev more freely with the lighter flywheel?
@goosenotmaverick1156
@goosenotmaverick1156 7 ай бұрын
Lighter flywheel would likely do that, but may come at a cost to balancing or the smooth operation in some small ways, so short answer is definitely yes, by how much? Who knows. What else would it affect? Hard to say. The rotating mass affects more than just the ability to rev quickly, so it could be fine, or it could have drawbacks like necessity for higher idle speeds or things like that.
