This is the kind of stuff I'm interested in! Usually any video Jay is in I watch because of all the good information! I could only wish that I could gain half the knowledge he has.
@@realstreetperformance I really do your guys videos are million views all day, it’s just the fact that many people like to watch stupid shit and not watching serious content and getting into the details of everything, I learned a lot from jay over the years ! ✊👊
@Torque and Beans Sauce , you definitely in the right place as I can’t get tired of watching Jay’s videos he has a way and thing or something on how he explains things just is easier to understand and makes more sense
I put a really thin layer of RTV on a water pump gasket once, because the sealing surfaces were extremely rough (it was a rusty iron block) and I didn't think that the paper gasket would conform to the pitting, it worked just fine. Edit: Some people do it to hold the gasket in place.
Thank you for all your videos, these are the exact ones I've been looking for to build my f20b . My bore by eyes look kinda like these . Would that have cleaned up enough to still run a std size forged pistons, maybe adding coding to them ? Love the b20 block build . Would have liked to see your videos finishing it . Thanks for all these videos again. Big help and the confidence my motor will turn out .
Love the part when you said you reference the worn bearing clearances IMO I’ve not seen many do this and seeing you do this makes me happy knowing it’s a way that I know was passed on to me that wasn’t wrong 😍 Love the part too where you talked about the piston skirts and those groove that retain oil An old machinist once told me they did that or prefer it for durability old man said they called it “oiling groove” 😅 once again beyond happy to see this video :) A few days late cuz I’ve watched this 3 times now 🤣
Love your content! Very informative. I would like to get your opinion on the valves. They all looked very different. Maybe in another episode. Thank you so much!
Don't have the quality of knowledge and workmanship like these machine shops around where I am. It makes for building a reliably, high horsepower engine a lot more challenging..
The montage audio is so much louder than his spoken explanation of the tear down. It won't stop me from watching these videos but Its fucking horrible if you have a sub in your system.
I’ve never heard of any manufacturer suggesting front or rear main seals for routine maintenance reasons. I even viewed normal, and severe service tables for a Honda vehicle that came stock with a b18. Obviously seal cut is real, but can occur in the normal life span of a seal. Replacing a seal that isn’t leaking is a preemptive measure at best, and not suggested by Honda.
i have 315,000 miles on my 2.0 zetec blacktop engine. does not burn a drop of oil and i regularly rev the piss out of it. after an oil change the oil is still Golden at 1,500-2,000miles.
Interesting video, but you think adding oil once every couple weeks warrants a full tear down? I dont know, my b has done that for like 18 years and 130,000 mi, lol. What about valve seals? oil out the PCV system, etc.
Its amazing these types of machine shops are around and can be found these days. Back when I was building engines for my Supra getting the machine shop to even acknowledge that the surface finish mattered was like pulling teeth. As soon as I would bring up surface finish they would say "we will make it the right finish" and refuse to provide any profilometer readings, probably because they didnt have one. As soon as any technical inquiries were brought up it was an attack on their knowlege and defenses would go up. This is part of the reason I got out of the hobby, because I felt like automotive machine shops wouldn't cater to the customer. It was always "we know whats best" and thats it. Needless to say I ended up with engines that would burn oil because the rings never would seat properly. Wish I knew a shop like this.
What is the correct amount of ring "tension" ? If ring tension is important, why can you buy low tension rings for race motors? Why do some people gas port pistons to increase ring seal? In any engine,is it not gas "blowby" that creates ring tension against the bore?
so the guys who switch to e85 with a hone set up for pump gas are probably going to have glazing problems? would a hone for ethanol eat a little more oil than a grocery getter engine? great video as always
Hey Jay.... it would be nice to do a video on the life expectancy of an engine that is a double the factory hp levels and what to expect.... if you haven't already
If the cylinder has begun to strongly deform into an egg shape, then re-drilling will make the cylinder round again, but is there a risk that the deformation of the cylinder will continue into the shape of the egg after re-drilling when the engine starts operating again? Is there a way to make the cylindrical shape as supportive / straight as possible? At worst, I have seen 3 Honda B20A9 -A7 and A3 engine blocks with at least about 0.25 - 0.35mm oval cylinders.
No, if there is a gasket no RTV is needed. On some engines the factory notes to add a small amount of RTV if there is a seam from another component, like a front cover.
Very good inf Jake I'm dealing with a similar issue on my car I don't see oil on floor but I have to fill him out every week plus fine out my car doesn't have pcv valve at all can that be my problem ?

Awesome, thank you!

I learn so much from your videos, even if I know the info of the topic being talked about. I’m still glued to the screen like 👁👄👁
I appreciate that!
My b18 was drinking oil like crazy, but in my case it was the valve seals
I would have been interesting to download a leak down on the engine before the strip down.
Great vid as always Jay
Youve nailed it mate!!!! MORE of this please. This is absolute gold. Thank you
More to come!
love B series engines over K. B series just sound so raw at high revv
The B series valve cover is so iconic.
@@castacus Yes it is
Absolutely
So relaxing to watch on a Father’s Day weekend with a cigar 👍🏾
You got that right!
B SERIESS BOIIII YEEEE SEND IT PAPI
Feature you on the next episode when we assemble it with all the new rebuild parts?!
@@realstreetperformance I’m always down ❤️❤️
@@realstreetperformance Is it possible to use the profilometer before and after break in to know if the break in is good?
I put a really thin layer of RTV on a water pump gasket once, because the sealing surfaces were extremely rough (it was a rusty iron block) and I didn't think that the paper gasket would conform to the pitting, it worked just fine.
Edit: Some people do it to hold the gasket in place.
Love it ! FIRE CONTENT ✊👍
Thanks 🔥
jay out here doing the Lords work
Id like to think this b18 was a noble steed with 300k miles
When a piston skirt is smoothed out like that, is that piston done for or can you save it?
Thank you for all your videos, these are the exact ones I've been looking for to build my f20b . My bore by eyes look kinda like these .

Don't have the quality of knowledge and workmanship like these machine shops around where I am. It makes for building a reliably, high horsepower engine a lot more challenging..
Now I know why my b18c1 is burning oil
The montage audio is so much louder than his spoken explanation of the tear down. It won't stop me from watching these videos but Its fucking horrible if you have a sub in your system.

Honda content😍
WISH I HAD A DECENT MACHINE SHOP....N THE LOOT TO REBUILD MY ITR B18C
I was always told these engines are designed to consume some oil due to the high rpms they turn.
Thanks for the Honda info. It’s we’ll needed
i have 315,000 miles on my 2.0 zetec blacktop engine. does not burn a drop of oil and i regularly rev the piss out of it. after an oil change the oil is still Golden at 1,500-2,000miles.
Interesting stuff ive been and still building engines but you never stop learning ...
LET'S GO JAY!!🏁
So much great information!
Glad it was helpful!
Hello, would like to ask. For an engine with the same cylinders health like this, would it read normal on a compression test and a leak test? Thanks
Real ST the Best !!!
Why didn't I think of using a torque plate when checking the bore size of my 4G63?? Now the measurements are inaccurate.
Interesting video, but you think adding oil once every couple weeks warrants a full tear down? I dont know, my b has done that for like 18 years and 130,000 mi, lol. What about valve seals? oil out the PCV system, etc.
I have been waiting for this exact video from this very channel 🙌🏼 my prayers have been answered!
So much information thank you so much jay
I live in Orlando and I’ve been looking for a proper machine shop! Thank you for the recommendation

We broke our b18c6 without kind of smoke the 3 Rod broke the block
What is the correct amount of ring "tension" ?
If ring tension is important, why can you buy low tension rings for race motors?
Why do some people gas port pistons to increase ring seal?
In any engine,is it not gas "blowby" that creates ring tension against the bore?
How can an engine consume oil without smoking or leaking but a different engine can be smoking without consuming any oil at all
so the guys who switch to e85 with a hone set up for pump gas are probably going to have glazing problems? would a hone for ethanol eat a little more oil than a grocery getter engine? great video as always
Jimmy!!!! This dude and ACH are the best in central FL. Big shout out and good job on the video!
No doubt!
wow, didnt know there was a difference in honing for fuel types.
Awsome explanations! Love your b- series vidéos
Woah! Nice! I’m currently doing a mild engine build on my original B18C1 Integra GSR! Interesting to watch!
Edit: how many miles was on this engine?
unfortunately we don't know how many miles were on this engine.
hi. can you do a rebuild on a VAG BXE??
Your videos are pure gold Jay! We would love to see a vid about the audi 1.8 20v engine. Keep up the good work
With bearings soft enough to be damaged with a fingernail, would the use of dial bore guages be avoided here?
Hey Jay.... it would be nice to do a video on the life expectancy of an engine that is a double the factory hp levels and what to expect.... if you haven't already
mr editor pls make the volume equal
If the cylinder has begun to strongly deform into an egg shape, then re-drilling will make the cylinder round again, but is there a risk that the deformation of the cylinder will continue into the shape of the egg after re-drilling when the engine starts operating again? Is there a way to make the cylindrical shape as supportive / straight as possible? At worst, I have seen 3 Honda B20A9 -A7 and A3 engine blocks with at least about 0.25 - 0.35mm oval cylinders.
Maybe changing the rod ratio(stroker, longer rod) to decrease side loading
This is the most information and valuable information I have ever received from a video. This is a great video! :)
Thank you! We greatly appreciate you watching.
stop the music!!!
Awesome 👌🏻
You aren't supposed to use RTV on the oil pan gasket?
No, if there is a gasket no RTV is needed. On some engines the factory notes to add a small amount of RTV if there is a seam from another component, like a front cover.
I just took apart a b1 to teach myself how it works and real st videos helped me the most! ty
It had 60k ish and the ring lands were solid with gunk!!
Also the byproducts of bad tuning, bad fueling, bad break-in practices and even oil qualities
Very good inf Jake I'm dealing with a similar issue on my car I don't see oil on floor but I have to fill him out every week plus fine out my car doesn't have pcv valve at all can that be my problem ?
Nice video. Any k24/20 teardown video in pipeline?
how does the machine shops repair the grooves in the crankshaft that was cause by the seals?
Is the crank still useable ? Is it prone to leaking oil because the scoring from the old oil seals ?
Where and why u wud use mineral oil over synthetic and even offer substitutes when dealing with limited resources
Well, that was fuckin awesome 👌🏽
Can the crank seal groove be fixed?
Man I love watching this channel . Awesome content .
These guys are the best. I wish I could learn from them.
Just curious; the B18C5 was a "Type R" engine, right? The " "C1 was a GS?
I believe c5 was sold in Europe. Type r is just b18c. C1 is gsr
@@edvas02271 c5 was US type r, c1 is US GSR
Thanks a lot for the video.
Yesss!!! Honda stuff !!!
Gotta love B-series 👏
What a great video love this
Anyone know where to find a timing chain replacement DIY for a 9th gen K24w?
Cool video 👍👍
Where can i get one of those measurement tracking sheets that Jay uses?
