Polishing Turds!!! What is a valve job???

[@flipfloptanlines926]

This is the best show the internets have ever birthed....

[@Rumsnob12662]

Really enjoying this series. Thanks!

[@davidthompson245]

Loved this content Pete, and I want to thank you for the great audio quality!!.

[@hansblooeyribbon4207]

I have a much older Sioux. Had to replace the 3 ball chuck with a ER32 collet system. Runout is .0004" now.

[@danielnelson6712]

Absolutely love the opening theme song.

[@ercost60]

Very interesting and informative. TYVM for such a great video!

[@jeremyholbrook1479]

Thank you for you for showing us engine assemblers how to improve our skills. Love your videos!!!!

[@kevin_nagle]

Im glad you went ahead with a mic to officially be an official television program! The majority of these KZbinrs lack proper audio equipment including a simple microphone. It really puts you in that top tier of educAtional television programs. Love the content and education you're providing us.

Hasn't been a good channel like this in a while it's all bolt on and when they need more power it's bolt on a bigger turbo this channel rocks

[@BJA27.]

Lived about a mile from the Tonawanda Engine Plant back in the day … and I could tell you stories you wouldn’t believe about my industrialized City. Thanks for filling in some of the Gaps Pete, The 70”s Multi Angel valve job on 202 heads: That was the shit back in the day 😂🏁😎 Keep it Roll’en

[@TheZFreeman]

I work in a machine shop, I've been in literally hundreds if not thousands of machine shops working on machines. I was an operator for a number of years and I've done everything to my motors from boring, honing, sleeving, decking, valve jobs, resizing rods, etc... and watching this series is just so great to me, for reasons that the viewer really just can't understand if they haven't done it. And that's just simply the FEEL that you develop for all of these processes from years of doing it and using these old machines. I learned on machines exactly like just about everything you have in your shop, and I am so glad that I learned this way. You understand so much more about what you're doing on these older manual machines. I started to watch the last episode of this series and made it like a minute in before I decided I should stop and go start from the beginning, and I'm so glad I did. Good job polishing this turd, Pete.

[@Dougarrowhead]

I bet you’ve not even been in dozens of machine shops.

[@TheZFreeman]

@@Dougarrowhead lol well you would lose that bet. I didn’t exaggerate.

[@TeamCarcaine]

This show gives me hope that my approach to a workshop beeing not clinically clean still can produce fast cars Thanks guys 😊

[@earnestbass1232]

Pete let that top secret power adder for beer money out. Sprinkle that miracle gro on the turbo! Lol😂

[@ajaychapman2276]

Awesome videos keep them coming 👍💪

[@phillipragsdale3382]

such a great series, thank you so much. Music is awsome too

[@designandbuild3953]

This whole series has been very interesting. 10 different people will puke out 10 different opinions about what works "best". The only valid opinions are informed opinions, and living proof like you're providing here. Appreciate you, enjoy the channel!

[@wisconsintractorpullingforum]

Glad to see I’m not the only one grinding valve dry :)

[@jameslatanejr5778]

I was wondering if that was okay to do my Sioux 657 doesn' have a coolant system will the valves be okay to use

[@leesanders8824]

I love this right here...... Why and what makes power. Especially N/A. Not just a run of the mill engine build.

[@79tazman]

Back facing valves is something I learned a long time ago from my old man when I was doing whatever I could to get power out of stock parts

[@russellbroadwell]

Enjoyed it looking forward to hearing what you have to say about porting

[@CARRIERGUY]

Intros are always great!

[@JohnRoberts71]

Great content thanks for sharing, very informative. Came over from Finnegan’s channel

[@littlemotor414]

Love it Pete! Was pretty nostalgic to see “Joe Mondello Signature Series” in the book; haven’t heard that name since way back when I played with 455’s and Cutlass’s.. Good stuff, and can’t wait to see the SuperDuperTunerator makin’ some chips fly in the next episode sir!

[@highvoltagewithboost1607]

Love watching your stuff. Thank you for working in my block surfacing yesterday and today! I greatly appreciate it!

[@thebegrsshow]

At the shop I worked at we had a Tobin Arp valve and seat center just like yours for inline valve heads, and a Serdi Machine for canted valve heads. Same old Sioux valve grinder just like yours too, except with the coolant pump & hose still flowing oil, LOL. When ever I was cutting or installing seats with those hardened pilots, I always had an oil squirt can to put a few drops of oil on the pilot so it didn't wear out the cutter heads.

[@79tazman]

I have a old Sioux valve grinder from the 1950's early 60's with a bunch of grind stones the thing works good I don't use it very much it was supposed to be for a wall hanger but everything works and I needed to use it a few times and so I have but it was used on old stock flathead stuff.

[@79tazman]

I learned about back facing valves back in high school shop class our teacher was a drag racer and taught us about many things that I remember and some I don't

[@timothygoodsell1446]

Great explanation 💪

[@bdubwiley]

more polishing turds. enjoy how much you go into depth on the processes.

[@mikemaccracken3112]

I have an old KO Lee valve grinder with an air chuck and I use Neway cutters for the valve seat. Love the videos Pete!

[@earnestbass1232]

Really enjoy these I worked at a machine shop in the late 80’s and it’s neat to see the way some things have changed and others are still done the same way. I used 3 different Sioux stones to create valve seats,the multi angle cutter is a vast improvement for speed and repeatability.

[@Sleeperdude]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge

[@given0fox968]

That’s some real good doin stuff 👍👊🇺🇸🤘

[@paradiselost9946]

sigh. im about to attempt an fzr250. been killing me with this weird "carb issue". finally noticed bubbles in the intake valves. pulled the head... its been rebored. the exhaust valves are so coked up theyre seating on carbon. great rebuild, guys... i suspect it isnt a carb issue at all. sort of understand why the 15mm valves hadnt been touched... just ordered a bunch of cutters with the plans of modifying them. even gotta grind a pilot arbor... nobody makes cutters this small. no-one can do a valve job at this size. and no-one can afford to pay a shop to tool up for it. when you think about air viscosity and tolerances at small scale... every tiny imperfection is huge when its a 62cc cylinder...

[@LowDollarDude]

🤘🤘🤘 been waiting on another one of these

[@jcnpresser]

Man I can’t wait for the porting video! You gonna flow then afterwards?

[@marsford2716]

Ok, new to the channel and I have to say you've got the best theme song ever hands down 🤣👌🤙🤙

[@BlytheLifeRacing]

How do you know how deep to cut when cutting the seat? Do you just stop once you have the full profile of the cutter, I guess a thousandth or two difference in install height is nothing to worry about?

[@joshstovall5783]

3/4 cam, double hump heads and a 5 angle valve job. 750 to the flywheel is what the old timers used to say….If they only knew what 750 really feels like lol.

[@holmeskillet576]

Come for the music, stay for the turd polishing...

[@Backfire10]

Hi Love your channel. Any upside to running beehive springs on a set of E7TE heads?

[@snipepockets11]

Do you ever radius the exhaust valves? Between the face and the margin?

[@kevinshields8278]

Hey Pete, I dig the vids! How do you set the depth of cut on the head's? What do you do to dress the wheel grinding the valves?

[@GrandPitoVic]

Great content brother

[@gregoryb7485]

AWESOME vid, thanks

[@79tazman]

Damn I thought the turd dried up into dust and there was no amount of polish in the world to bring it back LOL! Anyway glad to see your still polishing that old turd

[@gcanaday1]

Me machining for a living hears the sound change when the film speeds up and has a very minor heart attack.

[@jeffyoung2089]

Thanks!

[@daveparrish6207]

Pete put some some type of safety glasses on man!!!! Lol

[@realgoodatdoinstuff900]

That’s what I have eyelashes for!

[@427_FE]

That cutter setup looks so much more efficient than the Kwik-Way stones we had in the '80's ! Is there a set-up fixture for the blade to mandrel dimension ? Thanks for the video, I love this stuff !

[@TokyoCraftsman]

Finn sent me Cheers from Tokyo!

Who writes the songs? I love them! Makes me wanna pick up my guitar again after 20 years!

No cutting fluid for the seat cuts?

Hehehehehehahahahaha valve job , polishing turds, Hehehehehehahahahaha, my mind will never be the same thank you 😊 🙏 ❤ ♥ 😢 💖 😊

[@dawksnathansprecisionmachi8904]

Where is that book from with the different cutter angles ?

[@littlelifters7543]

I remember Dulcich saying that radiusing the corner of the valve added hp, have you ever played with that?

[@joshdavies886]

Any concerns sinking valves making them shrouded by the chamber

[@flyingwrenchesautomotive]

Shit To Git… 🍻 😂 👌

[@chuckjenkins1968]

You don't use any oil whenever you cut the valves??

[@Stevesbe]

You really can polish a turd Mythbusters proved it

[@justinfargas2367]

Is it like a rim job?

[@Stevesbe]

What heads are they?

[@davevaughn7057]

🔥🇺🇸🤘

[@Stevesbe]

I know what a job knob job is.... Pretty Hard too find

[@Elaba_]

After a valve job you need to do an Italian job.

[@LibertySpam]

I once knew a girl we called Valve Job....

[@twistedkidmotorsports9093]

I love the auto tune

[@claymore440]

Why as a professional engine builder do you continually refer to the ENGINE as a motor?

[@rondunlap4976]

By dictionary definition, an engine is one type of motor.

[@rondunlap4976]

Google "motor definition."

[@claymore440]

LOL you rely on google for mechanical information @@rondunlap4976

[@claymore440]

I will keep it simple for your limited intelligence A motor needs energy to convert to motion. A Motor uses POTENTIAL ENERGY in the form of FUEL to convert into motion.@@rondunlap4976

[@rockfordhx2768]

I just chuck the valve inside the head use valve grinding compound and use a drill for about 20 to 30 seconds slow rpms is how I do it on my personal engines

[@trailerparkcryptoking5213]

Read up on modern technology! Expert head gurus now refuse to use valve grinding compound!

[@rockfordhx2768]

@@trailerparkcryptoking5213 why is that ?
