No hand brake required ?
that's looks great fro a big heavy swap engine
Is that a ford inline six crate engine!?!? Im from America. We dont have nice things like inline six crate engines from ford.
@@austyndrums1993 yep ford Barra turbo 🤗🤗
Save some money with that engine build and buy some nail clippers mate😂
@@quintondafel225 nah I'm fine if they bother you it sounds like it's not my problem 😂😂😂
8hp gearbox like everyone is doing at the moment ?
@@Haywardrc nope the 8hp doesn't handle those kind of revs for sustained track time, Ide love to go a holinger or Samsonas sequential but there a big decision,
Such an amazing car, love this 😍
I know metric mechanic used to put restrictors in the cylinder head oil sprayer tube to prioritize bottom end oiling at high rpms. I've heard of similar on other engines too. Since roller valvetrain produces less friction it needs less lubrication, so I doubt you would need more than that. But making the 8000 rpms safe... I would think springs/valves/cam would all have to be setup perfectly and lightweight everything wherever possible.
@@guitarman376 I had no oil issues and my spray bar was std, the engine ran 80psi cold oil pressure and 30-40psi hot,this engine never had oil issues
@Grooty79 Oops this was supposed to be a response to a fellow in the comment section. Keep fighting the good fight Grooty, we want to see this engine live.
Not sure if this is the right video to comment this, but I am building m20b29 with roller cam and want to rev it over 8000rpm. What oiling mods, oil.. you would recommend to do to minimise cavitation? One of my ideas is to make custom smaller intermediate shaft gear and use higher volume m21 oil pump, but any way, maybe that is just unnecessary? p.s. Dealing with this kind of issues all the time, like you said, our expectations and goals getting higher than most shops can deliver and nobody wants to accept mistakes, lern new things or get better.
@@lukasseilius7150 I shim the pump spring and remove the block bypass , and also port the pump and run a baffled sump, if you have rhd cam kit make sure to test seat pressure as that was my issue
I'm glad you got some work done lately, but I did miss your videos. I'm looking forward to the M20 saga conclusion.
@@tiitsaul9036 me too mate, I just want to enjoy the engine 🤗🤗🤗
Very interesting how much needs to be considered when doing an engine build. Thanks for the updates on the engine.. much appreciated.
Watt Happens Next ?
@@peted5217 I'm doing fuel levels and starting to tune, I'm waiting on a fuel relay and a radiator temp switch then I'll get back on it
Cheers grootz, you are looking alot better. You are making good content thanks heaps
keep it up man doing well
That’s sweet mate
Viper mate
thank you so much for this video would you say it’s possible to get to 250 or is it too much
@@icanfixthat4206 200rwkw is possible na with a m54b30, a very good setup should go 210-220 but it's going to cost some $$
@ thank you for the reply and I think for butt dyno it’ll feel much quicker regardless but yes great review thank you once again!
How big is the cam? Obviously go with 13.6 CR:) The worst that can happen is you might have to run on E85 only. Or soften it with an even bigger cam.
@@tiitsaul9036 it has the 309 degree roller 🤗🤗 second biggest roller available for the M20, I should go bigger and chase the power 😍😍😍😍
Hi man. How much for the same pistons ?
@@ibrahimmanta6735 are you in Australia???? And these pistons are to suit 84mm crank and 138mm rod , they will also fit a 3.1 with m54b30 crank and 135mm rod but then it's 14.5-1 compression depending on chamber cc and quench measurement
Keep up the good work and I am excited for the m20 stuff. I am just starting on my e30 project.
@@KneipeMeijer thanks,
You've got some ups and downs going there. All the best.
@@tiitsaul9036 how's the story with this engine 🤣🤣🤣 I have to get the results just for me and then I'll be satisfied with the whole scenario 🤗🤗🤗
Que motor es ese.
@@detodounpoquito6916 E36 M3 🙌🙌🙌 gods motor
Awesome work 🤙
Arnold Schwarzenegger said something along the lines: *A person shouldn't waste a moment in a day to bring you closer to your goals.* Or something like that.
Awesome 👌
That's pretty cool man. Can we get a vid of how it sounds? Did you tune the exhaust for torque?
@@spudmckenzie4959 the pipes are close to what I need but still may have to make a new set, once it's mocked up it gets pulled down and painted and engine gets built, this things going to be angry asf
If the blue one is better condition overall, why not use that one instead?
@@spudmckenzie4959 blue ones not, better where mines bad
Man that's an awesome piece of kit. Mad keen for one or more. Will be in touch.
Hi man, its avalaible on internet the kit ? Or its home made ?
@@ibrahimmanta6735 it's available but only just released, only through Facebook ATM till I can get my internet shop sorted, look me up Daniel Graham Groot
Hey man i check the Channel reasonably regularly for your M20 content but being honest struggle to keep up with whats what - would it be possible you could sort the videos into playlists for each engine/ build etc at all? More Importantly this is gutting to see - was this the extreeme M20 you were doing with polished block, polished crank etc? also, what was the details on the head please and is it for sale? Im building another M20 Stroker at the moment and hoping for some big numbers !
@@anthonyparker7714 thanks for the suggestions , Ill try put them into playlists but I don't want my you tube to take too much time from my day, as for the monster M20 that is going back together soon, good news about the head is that port profile will be copied so I can then supply CNC port jobs at that serious level
@@Grooty79 of course, i get that, don't need youtube ruling your life ! thats great news RE the monster M20, thats gotta be the most extreme M20 I've seen, do you know what flow you were getting out of that head at all ? I'd be interested in a CNC Version if/ when that becomes available for sure!
@anthonyparker7714 the head flowed 219cfm @ 13mm lift , flowed more with increased lift and heads good for 330-350 hp if utilised to its full potential, and as soon as it's back from the machinist repairing it then I take it to my other machine shop to start mapping the ports, i have a 731 im going to enter into my cnc folder with the 885 and then i can cover both heads and both combustion chambers,
@@Grooty79 Sounds good, please let me know when they have been mapped out ! In the meantime, keep up the good work and keep playing with M20's !
Is that a real proper m3 e30?
@@madeosfun6099 it's all genuine NOS panels put on a 318i , so rh drive and no import issues, the mods I'm doing I couldn't cut up a genuine so had to build one 🤗🤗🤗
Успехов тебе в сборке мотоцикла
@@kvariumist I can't read the language sorry
@Grooty79 ok I'm sorry I don't know English can you speak Russian
No sorry,
How do i get your details without posting it on here
@@andrewpedavoli1621 look me up on Facebook Daniel Graham Groot
Hey mate I can assist in getting these charts from Bordo and others that we offer, let me know
@@andrewpedavoli1621 I was given 2 brand new ones but Ide love 20 or more so I can give them to people for presents 🤗🤗🤗
SIK. Went in one once that left bikes behind. Crazy car
@@TimLeary-rw3oq I had a few back in the day , I have a soft spot for a mk1
Cheers
What happened to your beard mate?
@@yousufnoori4439 I thought Ide go clean shaven and clean up life 🤗🤗
Thanks, this was good info
Permatex brother
@@damienelsworthy4720 nah I don't use that often but I do agree the non hardening is very good, I use PTFE paste loctite567 it's a thread sealant but works real well with o rings
I work on autos quite a lot, and nothing does my head in more than when someone puts silicone on a pan when it has a gasket. If you’re gonna use silicone anyway, why put the gasket on as well🤣
@@xboxh8erps3ftw I use loctite 567 thread sealant on o rings and cork gaskets 10x better and doesn't breakaway leak
do i see en40 on the crank?
@@Bristolcentaurus nope it wasn't, was a spridget crank,
Cant wait for the e30 build.
A cool car. Did you ended up dynoing it after the rebuild? Did I miss the video? M88 doesn't belong to E30 in my opinion. The magic of E30 is its low weight. Hey, that's just my opinion. I'm sure it will be a beast. I should've bought your M88 when you were trying to sell it.
@@tiitsaul9036 nope the Morris didn't go back on the Dyno as I didn't get a chance, and the m88 belongs where ever I place it 🤗🤗🤗 after driving it and building all the e30s I have I believe I can get it to handle well and pretty sure it's getting pushed back through the fire wall a little way 🤗🤗🤗
@Grooty79 I'm looking forward to the E30 content.
@tiitsaul9036 Ide love for you to have the m88 🤗🤗🤗 I know you would be a deserving custodian of such an amazing engine ☺️☺️☺️ I'm using either m88 or the M20 in the M3 but one has to sell to finish the other . Christmas isn't far away see what the universe puts into alignment 🤗🤗🤗🤗
@@Grooty79 for how much you let the m88 go for? It would be absolutely crazy and unexpected to have a highly built M10 under the M3 hood.
@tiitsaul9036 it owes me $20k 🫢🫢🫢 and Ide do a twin cam M10 stroker but not a s14 head 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Its very interesting what such a focused effort can afford. I am envious as my challenges are different. It is very cool what you are able to achive. I hope soon to send you an engine. God speed.
That's very cool. Thanks for sharing. People are, I guess by definition, painful to deal with. It's interesting the cause of the sound. I hope your stress is less now. It's a pity customers seem to think they are erroneously always right. But that only half the saying
@@spudmckenzie4959 customers have the right to what they pay for and I strive to make things as perfect as I can in there budget and sometimes there's unforeseen things that happen, easy fix so I'll get it done and returned to go back in the car 🤗🤗🤗
Hi man, can u read the problem please because im french and i understand a little when u speak english...sorry man
@@ibrahimmanta6735 head gasket is protruding into chamber and piston was touching it
@Grooty79 ahhhh yes wtf !! Thanks bro
@ibrahimmanta6735 I don't mind explaining 🤗🤗 thankyou for watching ,
if its 73.5mm bore a bk450 (std type) is very unlikely to seal you need a "custom" gasket MED do a special (MLS) gasket for 73.5mm bores also at one stage not to long ago one of the uk suppliers was doing sleeves to take 73.5mm bores back to STD
I threw this engine block in the bin and have replaced the engine block and most of the parts
Great info as always
@@EF50404 thanks mate ☺️
Big thanks, for this info.
Hi man, where can i buy same exhaust manifold ?
@@ibrahimmanta6735 I custom make them, next year 2025 I'll be jigging them up so I can make a few sets,
Thanks for sharing. How much does the piston protrude the block? Have you worked on the budget ECU project you showed us some months ago?
@@tiitsaul9036 piston is 0.90mm out of block, I'll chamfer the edge and gain enough clearance, as for ECU look up EFI Customs ☺️☺️☺️
