enjoyed your rebuild. wow, even though the pistons were seized, the cylinders were still in spec? most rebuilds here in the US you have to have cylinders bored out oversize because the cylinders are oval or have a ridge. many here send their heads out to machine shops for valve grinds, new seats and milled flat. what was the chestcase mod and flywheel mod? I would love to do a project like this with my son. Also enjoyed your old BMW motorcyles (have 2). looking forward to the startup!

The block in the first video was cracked, this engine comes from our electric amazon project. It's originally a factory replace engine and had very low mileage. So this block had very little wear in the cylinders. I machined the shestcase for a modern seal instead of a fabric seal and grinded a new surface on the flywheel.

There will be a video on a motorcycle project on this channel very soon😉

Hello there. Fantastic job you've done! I have 2 questions for you. What is the product you're using to seal the sump gasket at the beginning? And can you give me the color code for this bright red you painted the engine? Thank you!

[@ewlautomotive977]

Thanks! I used permatex gasket sealant for the sump. The paint i used is volvo engine red and I bought it from vp autoparts. I don't know the colorcode.

Hello! My dad has a p1800 that we have been meaning to restore for 20 years now but have not made any real progress on it. I have the opportunity to take ownership of it and was wondering if I can get in touch with you through email just so I can have a resource that is familiar with these cars. I am in my late 20s and this will be my first rebuild.

[@ewlautomotive977]

Of course! [e-mail]
