Mat’s dad's knowledge and time is forever proving to be invaluable. He is truly a legend and I hope he can see how much your fan base loves him

[@ClashOfGamesV1]

Love him seems like such a genuine guy and a really good dad.

[@Campyboy]

And he acks like a kid and is having a blast. He's one cool guy.

I don’t think I have smiled so big in my life watching a KZbin video. The energy that Matt and his dad have together is palpable. Nearly brings tears to my eyes to see this.

It’s one thing to have extremely entertaining content, but it’s another when you can wrap up unforgettable memories with your Dad. Really great videos

[@rudolfvanderven]

Mat's channel is just pure KZbin gold, and definitely no coincidence that it's already approaching 2M subscribers! A very likeable team, great storytelling while explaining things very well, cool cars, masterful editing and just a boatload of enthusiasm. This is the only channel I sit down for every time there's a new video. Keep it going guys, don't ever change the formula.

[@craigmcmeechan5899]

Storytelling is certainly a speciality of that team!!! I'm surprised they don't ACT up more for the camera.... wonder which youtuber will end up with that 360 next!

[@johnclunan4488]

I couldn't agree more, awesome cars and he and his Dad are fearless, Mat's continued upbeat attitude no matter what the challenges are and his video editing skills are second to none on all car channels. Keep up the good work!!

What an amazing channel you have built in a short amount of time! The cast is quirky, knowledgable, and hilarious. Your explaining the steps you are doing is very educational and helpful. The chemistry between you and your dad is heart-warming, and I think you should make him a grandfather. Thank you for not falling for the trope of endless shots of power tools at work.

2 things - pull the fuel pump fuse when turning it over to avoid petrol in the cylinders. - 75w80 offers equal protection to 75w90 but gear changes are much nicer.

Its so nice to watch a video were theres progress on the build in every video unlike some channels that are attempting to make build videos but are so tedious to watch because hardly anything gets done. You've got the right formula Mat and also the best taste in cars and mods!

I can’t describe in words how lucky you are to have a dad like this. I really hope I can be for my children what your dad is to you! Also, amazing content as always 🔥

Congratulations, hope gearbox and diff are ok. It helps the hydraulic valve lifters if you submerse in a container with engine oil overnight before fitting them. This usually primes them.

Just having had a similar experience of building sth with my dad yesterday. I can tell you the joy is immense and the moment is priceless, time is no longer a limit and fatigue won't dare to bother. Mat is among the luckiest in the world, having shared this experience many times with his fantastic dad. Keep up the good work and that big smile on your dad's face, Mat. PS: I'm no longer living in my country, which made it even more special to do such a thing with my father as we don't see each other that often anymore.

Normally you would have to build initial pressure with external pump...but we all do it with a starter and its fine...a tip to pull the fuel pump fuse next time so you dont sump unburnt fuel into cylinders next time. Its normal for engine to rattle like that when dry

[@chrispy104k]

17:32 - The take home lesson from this experience is that when you rebuild an engine, it's a good idea to get hold of an oil gallery priming cylinder that you fill with oil and use compressed air to force into the oil galleries. Generally that it connected where the oil pressure sender is attached. You may have to fill the cylinder a number of times to get the oil through all of the oil galleries. When you then crank the engine the first time, you should have oil pressure pretty quickly. The good decision on your part was to crank it without the plugs in so that there was no load on the big end journals.

[@markkimba74]

Well done Matt and Matts Dad,Tony but you really should unplug the fuel pump when cranking an engine without sparkplugs installed as the correct air to fuel mixture for a decent explosion is being pumped into your workshop. And there is potential sparks that could ignite that fuel air mix all around an engine and workshop. A petrol explosion is very very dangerous within a workshop.
