Polishing Turds Episode 9!! Assembly Prep

Let's start bolting this steaming pile together!

[@justinfargas2367]

Still one of the greatest music introz in all of the universe ever!

[@andrewreece3861]

I wasn’t so sure at first but it’s grown on me

[@Flitzer514]

Yeah, I went to the Garden Department in Walmart but couldn't find the music section. Maybe that's only at his Walmart? 😀

[@voodoovision7367]

I only come here for the music

[@theogiemofo1507]

been singing the intro for weeks now my co workers just shake there heads lol

[@stoney093]

ALWAYS A WEALTH OF FREE KNOWLEDGE AND INFORMATION BASED ON YEARS OF PROVEN PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE!! THANKS PETE !!

[@stevebeavers3754]

Always a treat to watch your stuff get polished.

[@yakman292]

Pete is such a wealth of knowledge and his step by step instructions of parts and assembly is top notch love the mad intro a bit smelly though ha ha

[@robertpierce1981]

I’m binge watching the series. Damn good stuff.

[@jasonn9012]

Great info and intro. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience.

[@prepper-bc4zr]

Great information. Love this series.

[@stevewelborn8744]

I can't see how any gear head would not be subscribed to this channel.

[@supertunesupertune]

As an engine builder over 35 years, I have the same Lisle cam bearing tool with steels shafts (Old one back in the day is my old Durabond) I see you lube them too! I even use the same Lucas semi-synthetic assembly lube! I now do the same with the ring gaps. (same or looser on 2nd) I do usually run the 2nd ring +.004 more than the top with the Napier type newer ring design. Good video for anyone wanting to know the tricks of engine building!

[@highvoltagewithboost1607]

Keep up the good work Pete. I appreciate everything you and James have done for me!

[@jcnpresser]

Heck yeah, new episode of turds! Lol. Seriously though, I look forward to your stuff dude!

[@jeffyoung2089]

Thanks. Enjoyed the video.

[@redlinefury]

Appreciate these videos!

[@toomanymodz]

I use the cam sprocket as a handle. Works great and allows me to 'hover' the camshaft all the way in. No clanking sounds.

[@sleeperimpala2504]

Everyone remember to subscribe. Definitely in the top few channels on here. The music alone is worth it lol.

[@jonoclark1520]

Yo awesome work with Mullet. Was already subscribed after watching this series

[@williamyoast216]

Love the intro. I check daily for new turd polishing vids. Y’all need to subscribe. Best engine builder that can explain the process and why to us dummies. Keep up the great content Pete. Can’t wait to see the hp gains

[@MegaSpool]

Good stuff man. Thank you for sharing some of that experience in your head lol.

[@williamdundon9770]

Great series thanks

[@79tazman]

I use a piston to get the ring straight in the cylinder but I'm sure the ring squaring tool is a better thing to use

[@joemusicman64]

Dude who did your music? Awesome heavy rock man. Learned so much watching this. Saw you on Cleetus so that's how I found you. Good stuff.

[@darrendubbelman6042]

Thanks Pete

[@Smokey72013]

Much love for the sbc. They seem to run real good once you get up around 400ci. I just wish they had a bigger cam core

[@jamespurvis8880]

Make me want go polish turds. I think I will. Gone build a budget 387 from 94 351w for my notch. Thank you for the content!

[@twistedkidmotorsports9093]

You are so good at what you do I’d love to sweep your floors for six months and soak in the knowledge thumbs up from New York

[@HeyLiana1]

Thanks for that information about the ring gap

[@yarrdayarrdayarrda]

Interesting. I just install the cam bearings while the block is on a table, which allows me to install the back 3 from the front and the front 2 from the back using the cone to center, plus you get to finish off with the cam plug before it goes on the stand.

[@mikemaccracken3112]

That is exactly how I do it too. Installing cam bearings and filing rings are two of my least favorite things to do😂.

[@yarrdayarrdayarrda]

@@mikemaccracken3112 Small and big Chevys are usually trouble free, it's the bloody LA/B/RB/HEMI's that guarantee you'll be doing some bearing surgery to get the cam to spin freely.

[@ldnwholesale8552]

GM engines you have to check cam bearings and make sure the cam fits. My machine shop insists on me to bring the cam. Too often haveing to 'scrape' the bearings for the cam to fit Chevs, Holden 6 &8. .While I have done more GM engines than others Fords from the factory are generally far better machined. Wheras some Chryslers too are very poorly machined. Jap stuff is generally fairly good. To me cam always goes in first. Ring gaps,, hone, rings and bearings engines. The new rings have a bigger gap than the old worn out ones.I have always worked on 4 thou per inch of bore, A bit more [18] for the second ring. These days they come new with 6 thou plus. And new pistons are so far down the hole,,, A 9-1 OEM engine ends up at 7.5-1

[@hammbone1612]

Great video

[@maldo72]

good stuff

[@txsailor57]

Am I the only one that likes to put the front two cam bearings in before (or take it off) it goes on the stand so that I can use the longer distance and cone on the tool to keep them straight?

[@Zone6G]

I'm surprised you lube the bore before you put the bearing in. I'd think that would raise the risk of spinning a cam bearing. I guess the press fit is enough.

[@JohnW1711stock]

In NHRA Stock there is some good HP gains in ring and hone combinations. Nice video.

[@gregskufca755]

Ooohhh.....we could've stood more! Diggin the episodes down in Baytown brother.

[@phillipragsdale3382]

I would really like to see a video on your experience and history. I'm sure others might be interested also.

[@given0fox968]

For the algorithm 👍👊🇺🇸🤘 Anyone know if it’s toe or tow the line?

[@bg0013]

Love me some turds, did you change the cam, and if so can you do a turd special on cam selection please

[@shanerorko8076]

I don't know why the engines didn't just use a bed plate cap to hold the cam and lifters in.

[@chucknanopoulos7227]

Off topic Are you doing the music? If so what processor are you using ? Love the the series Please make more Is there merch?

[@georgeisai426]

How long till you can hammer a peg with out looking at it? My hands would hate installing cam bearings!

[@charlestorruella8591]

who does this music it's bad ass I get it stuck in my head every time I'm at when my boss gives me some bullshit to fix this songs plays in my head

[@philipmazzuca2269]

NY +2 🇺🇸

[@phillipragsdale3382]

I'm here already,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,hahahah they won't let me subscribe more than once, like voting

[@abitoffcenter383]

Would putting the bearings in liquid nitrogen first make installation easier? Or is that going a bit overboard?

[@MiscRocketVideos]

This polishing job is getting pretty shiny. What are you guessing the dyno numbers will be?

[@rockyriverracing1429]

Pete can you please tell me what gap you’d recommend for a 6.0 LS .005 over bore for +20lbs of boost? I’m very curious of your opinion

[@Randysshop]

Pete do you ever check rod bolt stretch?

[@Stevesbe]

Typically How much does it cost polish a turd ?

[@jdias51]

How is Nick dirty30 motor coming?

[@meltonricke5299]

Why settle for zillions when you can have kajillions?

[@thesquirrelchroniclesakare7808]

How many times have you hit yourself installing cam bearings ?

[@littlemotor414]

Commentsauce!!!! 😜

[@Stevesbe]

Pretty much never a good idea to try to go in dry
