    Jay is such a class act, you can tell he wanted to put the last guy that built that engine on blast. He remained calm and was speaking the truth about how it was poorly built. Keep passing your experience and knowledge around for us to use :-)

      All that stuff aside, what cooked it was running without cooling flow. The actual build was insignificant to the issue of why it was tore down.

    Given the thermal run away and loading the engine had when the belt came off several times, the fact it was still even running with no HG failure, no piston/wall scuffing, nor broken rings - none of the usual things that happen from an overheat i'd say it did pretty good. Assembly and machining failures aside, and are not excusable.

      The bearing had thermal damage, but the physical size of the steel backings didn't change, so the bearing was still clamped properly in the housing bore. It wasn't until that cap was removed that the bearings were able to relax into the shrunk state a bimetal bearing wants to be in after an overheat/overload.

  • @deantheboatguy1437
    @deantheboatguy1437 Рік тому +1

    now that its been completely cooked (stress relieved & normalized) wouldn't it be best to cut everything to spec (line bore , deck & cylinders) in order to have a more stable and accurate block that moves around less as it heats and cools under extreme use ?

    • @yarrdayarrdayarrda
      @yarrdayarrdayarrda Рік тому

      Yeah it can be pretty brutal. In a perfect world you're miles ahead if you can line bore to within a thousand or two before the honing process. Line honing is a finicky task with a bunch of block rotations and cap hardware loosening to get all 5 (or 7 in this case) housings within spec at the same time.

      @yarrdayarrdayarrda Рік тому

      Caps were installed backwards before the block was line honed. If the block was machined with the caps in the correct direction, then assembled with the caps in the opposite direction, the crank wouldn't have turned because the bores would have all been offset.
