Gotta pop the hood for a fella! 😢

Nice 454 love to put it in my short bed square body, keep the videos coming

Put some hose on it

Yeah and crap compression with that much clearance.

What shade of red did you use on your block?

Thanks for the clock source info.

7 tenths????

If mostly a street motor, why no vacuum advance? Enjoyed watching the build.

Hi. I'm thinking about replacing stock pan on my chevy 396. what ref did you use as for the oil pump pickup ?

Have a question for you , btw i port matched my intake and it came out great 468 bbc stroked ,, anyways I have a pete jackson gear drive on the engine, how many degrees of play should I have before the rotor starts to move turning the crank backwards from 0 degrees Once I set it , , it’s been done a long time ago , I just realized I don’t hear the gear whine anymore ??

What’s your hp estimate?

I see some of these videos for cheap oil priming tools I figured out my problem I was just using a drill But if I had bit in the oil just pours out of the galley It doesn't prime one side of the head that's why I use a regular distributor to make a tool No one seems to really understand how the oiling system really works in these on UA-cam. Because no one ever mentions this A distributor restricts the flow from one of the cam galleys to get oil to push rods and lifters

Hello sir, i wanted to say i appreciate this video,and wanted to ask if this cover is american made

Excellent head for a 396 build 😊

This is the 1st time I have ran into this issue. Distributor is not sitting on pad and I need to shim it up .060". I will definitely use this video again for the information you have here. Thanks!!

great video, yeah i have a hard time not making a trench in the corners

Back in the 90's I had some serious oxidation issues using stainless bolts with an aluminum intake manifold. The bolts deteriorated the intake to the point that it was almost unusable as the bolt holes were deformed due to oxidation. I don't know if it was a metallurgical issue or not but I also encountered the same problem with stainless bolts and an aluminum boat transom repair using never seize that time. The bolts still bnded to the aluminum and had serious white oxidization at every fastener point. I have not used stainless bolts in an aluminum application since and i would be very apprehensive about putting them into an aluminum head. Just my experience. Have you encountered similar?

I made a "flapper rod" for my die grinder about 25 years ago, I used a 3/4" bolt shoulder. I turned it down on one end to 1/4" so that it would chuck up. I cut a slot in the big end for emory cloth. I can wrap emory cloth and achieve whatever desired thickness over3/4" and tear off the outer layer as I go. Thanks for yet another video.

Thank you for the video. It was very interesting as well as satisfying to see your technique as well as gain from your knowledge. That WD-40 advice is awesome. It is not fun when oyur die grinder gets stopped up with aluminum.

Excellent video. Thank you for the info.

Man I learned something on this one.......

That collet you had clamped up was pretty slick, I’ve never seen that before!

Ah the early 90's, a great time to be a gearhead. I bought my first car, a low option '69 Nova(307/th350), for $600 in 1992 and built a 327 with junkyard L98 aluminum heads for it in my HS auto shop. It was almost always on M&H cheater slicks and embarrassed a lot of people at the local street spot. I also had the David Vizard SBC head book from that time and the Car Craft issue with the flowbench plans in it. After HS I found an old Kwickway seat and guide machine from a shop that was closing down. I used it to rebuild a lot of fuelie and other heads for friends to help finance my hobby. Never did get around to building the flowbench but one of my HS autoshop teachers did.

everything you did here is wrong. You need too line bore the main caps to size them properly. This is just not how it is done.

What size chamber on your heads. You've got plenty of room, maybe take a little off

All Iheard was that slick synthesizer music.

Great job!!

Has it lasted or failed?

Clear the cover because it will oxidize in no time if you don’t.

Nice Job,thanks for the 411 as I'm getting ready to do the same, this video was helpful. PEACE

Watch your pushrod to pushrod guide clearance. I broke two using scorpion 1.8 rockers.

Over performers. Now make a video for rednecks like me with minimum tools !!!

This was some good information definitely going to have to try it

chrome covers...smh not the way to go with a daily driver...don't matter what manufacturer it came from. IT'S going LEAK oil...

back sound is irritating...smh

Just a respectful question, but why use a button when your block will accept a cam retention plate? If you mentioned that i missed it and sorry in advance.

Wow I thought you did a real well explained and planned port matching, great job.. For sure the water jackets could be closure than you think in that aftermarket intake walls, less is best when porting.

Something tells me you've assembled a computer motherboard from pieces you bought at Radio Shack. Pretty much just means you know what you're doing.

I wonder how much tongue weight trailer can take

Thank you very much for sharing your video!! I watched it carefully because I have the same problem with the same thread on the carburetor pump discharge nozzle, but I can't find that specific-sized helicoil on eBay or anywhere else, and I still don't know what size it is... Everyone seems to have the repair kits for carburetor bowl screws for sale, but I can't find this specific repair. Could you please tell me where you bought it? I would really appreciate it!! Greetings!!, Andy

Did you have to use different length push rods with aluminum heads? Thinking about swapping my 215 oval ports on my 396 to afr 265 heads.

Thanks for the video. Great explanations throughout. Where would I get valve test springs like you use in the video?

Thank you for this, guess Ill need to make a spacer for my crank pulley as its the one in too far in, which puzzles me as they are the same pulleys going on a new engine block of the same size??

What oil pump? Part number?

It's so nice I almost hate you.

Great video! I have a question regarding the timing chain cover installation. My motor is already installed in my Chevelle, and I’m hoping I can change the cover without having to drop the pan. I have a big block 496. Any thoughts? Thank you!

I bought a 1971 Corvette years ago and I'm sorry I let it go. It was Ontario Orange in real nice condition with a Saddle interior. 350/4 speed. Luggage rack and all numbers matching. I bought it at the Pomona, Ca. swap meet. Later on, I bought a '93 C4 that was my dream car. Of all the cars I owned, that '93 was the best. I commend you on your workmanship and it looks like you got a beauty. It's a big deal when the engine runs well. I would love to buy another C3 but the prices now are out of my reach so I enjoyed your video and I like your Vette.

Great video 📹 👍

Great video I need to do this to my car. I will order one of those clocks. I like that you showed how you did it.

That is the only way to do it right, because very seldom does everything line up right ,, we have. Found heads that the chambers are off end to end, blocks that have shifted in the core etc. Accumulated tolerances from side to side, it is foolish to assume every thing is right, you have to make it right !
