Assembling a 500HP Miata Engine From The Bare Block, ASMR Style.

[@stinkydoggy98]

No blah blah blah talk, no annoying music, no selfie stick where they film themselves more than the work. No this is just straight to the work. Perfect! Looks awesome. Subbed.

[@teamgonzo9289]

Nailed it!!! 👍

[@williamsiniovosa4945]

This is the best engine build i have seen in while ❤

[@__mehdimt__]

Absolutely i hate those videos that they talk with their annoying voice and saying about the process that we’re watching it with our eyes This one was perfect thank you 🔥🔥🔥

[@Gizmos_and_stuff]

i found the music pretty annoying, but otherwise yeah!

[@kasxpro]

This was what I was looking for, need more long ones for my second monitor content!

[@Luckde10]

Greg, your techniques have become far more refined since the fist build. Looks far more surgical than your earlier builds. Look forward to the day on the dyn.

[@RaiLosTHisMind]

Words cannot describe how satisfying it is watching an engine be assembled. All while being educational. Please make more of these the exact same formate exact same music. It would be much appreciated 🙌🏾

[@mazdamiatafied]

Beautiful work Greg, hypnotizing. Your cinematography has gotten so good!

[@dannycarlos3669]

This is my 25th time watching this build. It is perfect, the music, the torque wrench clicks, the production quality and camera angles..gorgeous.

[@elijahbakker1513]

I'd also like to add that your quality of work has increased astoundingly! I was rebuilding my first motor around when you started your big red and I've been working in the industry since. I build race motors for motocross bikes and you have done just as much as our highest of quality builds. If you do end up reading this, much love ❤️

[@TheCarPassionChannel]

I think you might be getting confused, the "updated" VVT head gasket from Mazda has smaller openings for the front coolant ports, but this gasket has full sized openings. There is nothing blocked off in the rear with any head gaskets as far as I know

[@elijahbakker1513]

@TheCarPassionChannel yes, after looking back into it, you are correct. Just making sure you're on your toes 😉 I'll edit it subsequently after this reply

Have to comment twice after watching in full.. That ol Mundo hex spin down to the last nuts and bolts represents so many years of wrenching to reach this milestone. I'm proud for you never giving up on your passions my amigo. Always looking forward to seeing what you can build! Thank you for continuing to be an inspiration and role model to us all!

[@crossfiregaming6332]

can we please point out that 1 handed hex key skill. I have never seen anyone do it so smoothly!

[@stephenhawkingMLG]

Using your videos as a template for my own built motor miata. Really appreciate the depth and detail as you’re pushing the limits of these BPs! Hope soon people will start to see the potential these motors have and how much cheaper they are to build than other motors!

[@FDB77]

I may not have anyone for Valentine's Day but at least I have Miata Dad and my NB :) Thanks for the relaxing video Craig.

[@_m_mccormick_1946]

this is probably the 5th time I've watched this. Honestly It's so relaxing, love the build brother

[@TheCarPassionChannel]

@@_m_mccormick_1946 I appreciate you!!

[@aristotleallen5577]

Total ASMR, those torque wrench clicks made me all tingly.

[@SuperDafi1980]

A little greeting from Denmark, A real pleasure looking at Greg, keep up the good work 😃👌👍

[@1987RX7TII]

This was so calming. On one hand, I’ve done most of what you’ve shown here except for installing pistons or taking out valves and keepers. Watching you do the whole engine almost makes me want to build a long nose 1.6 I have laying around in my basement that has mild rod knock. But then I’ll need to buy all the expensive goodies and convince my wife the car needed it. Haha. Love to see it.

[@nic1586]

wow someday ill have enough money to build an engine like this until then love seeing others build stuff

[@sassafraswakeboyz4121]

I love the subtitles... tells people what he is installing... great craftsmanship!!!!!!!

[@neddleman26]

A video I will watch many times in the future. Thanks for the outstanding content! I know this added a lot of time to the build!

[@OfficialEngineerGaming]

you, my fine sir, are on your way to excellency, no blah blahing, no selfie stick, just pure vibes, get er done buddy.

[@lucusc4002]

The video I did not know I needed, engine building is always a joy to watch.

[@Nasonix2]

So happy to get to see it happen. Couldnt of hoped for more. For those of us who have built engines before, it's time investing! Let alone video recording and editing such a slick assembly compilation. This is awesome you could probably do so much with this engine. I'm a little concerned with the crank being able to handle high boost though. In theory it should but who knows. That's the thing I don't know of anyone else that has run the level you might intend on it. Is there anyone else running upper 400's whp on them? If not I'm worried that it might be intended for natural aspirated builds (all out n/a builds) hense the cast material. Don't get me wrong cast cranks can still make 400+whp. But my thinking is it shares the same counter weight design as the forged cranks and we know that it's not favorable for high RPM's. All I *know* for sure is the M-motorsports crank is cast however the metal alloys used is supposed to be better than the OEM Miata one. The better design at the nose of the crank (will help mains). In theory I think it should be good for what you made before but I just don't know for sure I'm just worried since nobody else has committed their build to the unknown like you'd be doing. It's awesome 👍

[@highvisibilityraincoat]

Greg thank you for showing me that RTV can that is a life changer omg

[@MultiMinors]

What a beautiful engine

[@pappieee9409]

I bought a 05 nb the other day and I found your channel literally about a hour ago, you are a absolute god send and a gem, thank you daddy Greg and much love from the uk 🫶🏻

[@Patrick94GSR]

hell yeah such perfect timing on this. My 2000 BP4W is blown apart down to the long block on the engine stand right now, for resealing and cleaning everything. I'm not removing the head or doing anything internal, but replacing all external seals, gaskets, o-rings, all new coolant hoses, oil pan sealing, etc. Just ordered all my parts yesterday. Can't wait to get it all back together and driving again.

[@cavalierliberty6838]

I have seen plenty of people assemble engines, you have it down to an artform. I want to be on your level one day, man.

[@ProfessionalDriver101]

An excellent video. It’s nothing but a relaxing, enjoyable build with no ridiculous or obnoxious intros, chatter or demands to like and subscribe. And yet, with the format of the video, and the pleasant but detailed view of how the engine gets built is motivating to watch more of your channel.

simply beautiful, had my MX5 going on 8 years now, so far turbo'ed brakes, suspension and other little bits. been looking to rebuild and forged the engine to get to a magic 350BHP and to do it myself a cherry poppin moment and this video makes me want to do it.

[@iainbagnall4825]

Dear god this is relaxing. I never knew I needed a 30 minute engine build video. Kudos for doing this with bare hands instead of gloves! That is one clean engine but still. It actually looks like you got a mani before shooting this lol. Which is the ultimate way to show your miata love.

[@MrDungante]

Looks good, I could tell how excited you are by how much you were shaking the camera at the end lol.

[@DerekPaksa]

Watching this after playing car mechanic simulator is amazing. Although it is simplified in the game, it still gives you a sense of satisfaction. Especially when you recognize every step and part of building the engine. I hope you can assemble other engine. Good video.

[@TheCarPassionChannel]

If you enjoy that try Wrench, it's Miata based and it's detailed down to every last bolt. Super impressive game

[@TommyG_0311]

"cries in poor" man, i felt that on a spiritual level LOLOL

[@Friendsofdonr]

Driven Racing has been amazing in my engine and the br30 worked so well, engine was broke in extremely quickly and efficiently. I was pulling 27inhg within 45 miles, following the Flying Miata break-in procedure. Glad to finally get time to watch this Creighg!

[@Golfr2020]

It's amazing so many moving parts needing to work under so much stress. More power, though, versus longevity.

[@ryandeweese363]

One of the best put together engine and video builds I've seen in a long time!! Very well put together, and can't wait to get started on my next engine build!! Last one was a 2008 4.7, Super smooth!!

[@HaworthJimmy]

The parts list and details you’ve provided are fantastic. So much research and planning given away to anyone on a similar journey with their Miata. Good on you ❤

I'm telling u man... this is my goal. Stroker turbo but low boost. This engine is a beast. Mazda took a ford/block that survived the Roman empire and provided us the golden template

[@hewbambam]

I dont think I blinked for the whole 30 minutes. It's a thing of beauty

[@JunoSolarWinds]

That was the nicest sounding torque wrench

[@okatashiyoniku]

When installing the oil seal, I think it is appropriate to apply grease to the lip before attaching it. If you are unlucky, the contact surface of the oil seal may burn during the initial engine start. It also increases the durability of the oil seal. It's a cool video showing engine maintenance down to the smallest detail, so I wanted to share the information and make it meaningful.

[@BrandonShea-mc7nx]

You can definitely tell it's his first time doing this, thanks for the great video

[@LAMMROD_]

Your edit makes this build look like a Lego set. Great work

[@jefflotts1843]

Just an observation, but I was taught to compensate for any extension bar used with a torque wrench. In other words, did you allow for the twist in the extension absorbing some of the torque applied to the fasteners? You do absolutely fantastic work on your videos, and I am so grateful for all that you share. Keep it up sir!

[@mixalisstathis274]

[@pauliusguzas8063]

Great stuff! Though on 10:34 on the left side can be seen that you made RTV bead straight down rear main seal housing while in reality should bend to the outer edge after clearing that centering dowel. That is because there is nothing in contact with the block in that straight down area, but there is metal in contact further outside to the side. This can be seen on Mazda Workshop Manual
