Great meticulous work as usual - so nice to see when there's so much "that'll do attitude" out there. Cheers.

Just another quick question " on that crank at 11:40, the deeper rusted pit", why not drill it out , and insert a steel plug and re-grind or weld it up ? I guess leaving it is also no real issue, it will just fill with oil .

How is that stone for cranck grinder maintained and made sure it s flat ?

Possible a Rover 1.6-liter inline-four petrol engine. This engine was derived from the unit used in the pre-war Rover P3 saloon. Good job as always... I am jealous about all your machinery😀😀

Going really well till you had problems in second race, shame we'll done 😊. Great video

Very nice work James. Beautiful cylinders. Thanks for sharing. 👍 👍💯

more of sam on the vids hes great

Fascinating video thank you, I love these old machines.

Really enjoyed watching your rebuild. Keep up the good work.

Lovely old side valve, had one of the early ones for a 49 I rebuilt.(I did not rebuild the engine), pity I did not know you then James. Mine had a crank grind, replaced the cam shaft as well.

Very informative thanks. With a ‘performance’ build, does machining a fresh valve & seat surface then mess with valve spring seat pressure etc?

That orange crank grinder is oddly hypnotic 😂

Winston Wolf i solve problems gentleman😎

I wish that Id had that WOLF Kit when I was hand lapping my Valves ! I HAD a Wolf Drill which in fact I still have, but that Lapping kit is something else ! I wonder if I can get one on E-Bay ? ? Thanks for a REALLY Interesting Vlog ! My Rover has a Slant head which can be a Bugger sometimes ! Stay Grinding ! Stu xx

Yes wedge shaped block sat on the top surface and then rebored with a Van Norman bar, exhaust seats regularly suffered from hairline cracks!! Prince grinder looks in great condition must be over 40 years old

Love to see a master craftman at work. Attention to detail is amazing. Nice one buddy. 👍

Well done, sir! I really enjoyed that. It's great to see a new life being given to an old and seemingly decrepit engine. I am going to shame myself with a couple of questions that shows my lack of knowledge. First, it's a four cylinder engine. Why are there only four valves and not eight? (One of the comments below refers to a "side exhaust" engine. Is that the reason? Second, in a previous video you showed valves with a different profile, with two "angles" and not a single angle. Does the "two angle profile" valve mean it's a two-angle valve seat? I just can't remember.

James you can fit the pistons or remove them from the top to save removing the crank by pushing the rod right up and removing the piston pin . Have done it that way on later 2 lt engine when still installed in car it’s a bit of a job to get rings in as can’t use standard ring compressor.

A minor little witness of the porosity from the corrosion on the crank journal would probably help with oil retention and be largely insignificant. Having watched several of your videos, l know what a perfectionist you are and how it bothers you. As the saying goes: "Miracles are no problem, impossibilities take a lot more work".

Just the sound of grinding valves by hand reminds me of my apprentice days many moons ago, how simple life was back then 🤣🤣

For those old side exhaust engines 4 and 6 cylinders I can remember seeing a special tool possibly V L Churchill. It was a taper plate wedge shaped with six holes. When fitted to the top of the block it gave you a flat surface to machine from.

Nice work James, thanks for sharing. The engine is certainly a different design. New to me.👍 Have a good weekend. 👍

Thanks James. Excellent video. Very interesting to see that valve seat grinding kit. And lovely job on that shabby crankshaft! Cheers, Peter.

I really enjoyed the work on the Land Rover engine , I have not seen one of those valve seat grinding machines before very interesting ! Kit from down under

Great job as usual James good to see the old kit still in use.Not many engine shops would have seen a 1600 land rover engine let alone machine one to this standard !

hi james good video again ive laped in 1000s of valves in my day very intresting

You scratch it , you own it 😬

This belonged to salvage rebuilds a few years ago I think

that sounds incredible.

MGB. Proper job that. 👍

Great in-car camera set-up and you voice-over makes it feel complete. I was tired out just belting through the gears with you! As a by-the-way ... what are the two gauges on the right hand side of the dash that pop up now and again ? Cheers, what larks.

Your engine sounds really strong.

Great racing James!

Some aggressive racing there, must be a big buzz

Great video as usual, shame about the diff but we go again next year! You didn’t crash so my advise was good 😉

Nice , a weekend of Drifting and maybe a course in anger management. Diff some iso polishing more reliable and hp . Any process on the dyno installation and could we have some close ups of the dash when your racing next season. From behind the stumps. Kit from down under

hi again james another great video

Got to admire the way you never give up, your turn will come, I dont doubt it😎

Valve 16V

Very high quality rebuild and very educational full credit to you. How did you remove the dome type Welsh plugs and install dome type as I have a Mark one 1500 wolseley and believe they are the same type? Thank you best regards from John.

Without doubt, the best porn channel on the internet 🤣

proper job James would love to see it on the rollers when it gets installed

Gran maestro, gracias por compartir tanto conocimiento sobre este magnífico MG B. Video apasionante, fuerte abrazo desde Madrid

So basically calling the customer to say hey buddy I know you tried to help buying all the parts first but most of them we don't need you'll have to buy them all again

Great video! Really appreciate you taking the time to show everything that goes into a proper rebuild!

Another great video, thanks.... learning every day

Excellent as always bug you weren't wearing your hair net despite the warning sticker on the guide press! Go straight to Internet jail 😂

🤣🤣Modern day machinery I remember way back 40 years ago😱 when i was a2nd year apprentice i did a pair of those heads by hand on the fly press reamed by hand new guides new seats remove and replace broken studs ported and gas flowed took me 1 weeks solid.

Spot on as usual, Expensive heads no room for a cock up! Nice selection of BMX hanging up on wall James.
