Surely satisfying for you to see it running after all the craziness of the build. Brings up the question though (as my rebuild is progessing). Modern engines... Baby them at first, or run them hard from the beginning? Lots of opinions on both sides, seems you're on the take it easy side.
You mean for the break in period ? The best practice is to put load on the engine without revving it too high. Without a dyno I usually find a place where I can drive uphill for say 10 or 15 seconds going from 2k to 3k RPM in 2nd or 3rd gear > you then drive down the hill to cool down and up again - The next run you go up for 20 or 30 seconds and increase the amount of time you're on the throttle for longer as you progress. You should definitely NOT baby the engine but I also would not go past the 4k rpm on first 100kms - Just remember your engine will produce much more heat when it first starts until the piston rings settle in place
Yes, they are holding up nicely so far however just like with all aftermarket parts, you need to ensure you double check all clearances and number before putting the engine together
@dnl35projects 😆. He must have been well over 750 tq as well. I have a tuned stage 1 F90 M5, and it's been told many times not to go past 670-680 tq because the rods will go bye-bye.
A tune caused the engine to bend a rod creating a ticking noise - The car was taken to a local shop which diagnosed as a lifter issue and replaced a bunch of things on the engine head, while doing that they forgot something inside of the engine which blocked the oil pickup pipe causing the engine to seize
The cost will vary according to what is wrong with the engine but generally speaking you will spend around $8k in parts and another U$5 - 10k in labour depending on what needs to be done (Eg. sleeving the block adds $3k)
It would definitely be cheaper however the used engine can run for 2 months and blow up, you'll be back to square one. Doing a rebuild will cost more but give you peace of mind in the long run
We had some sizing issues but that was rectified before we build the engine. They should be good as long as you double check all your clearances when assembling the engine
After watching this video, I got the closure I needed. My life is complete now :D
hahaha LOL - Thanks
Just watched the series on the engine rebuild, awesome, really enjoyed it, thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it - Thanks
watched all the videos of this M5 engine build - what a great work you have done! learned so much watching this. you are a very good mechanic! 😊
Thank You
I nearly cried, after all the hard work you put into this beast. The owner was impatience
LOL ! Yes but thankfully after a bit of waiting the much wanted outcome is revealed
I am so glad at the end, the car got back on the road and you did an amazing job. A lot of effort and it payed off !! 💪🏻👏🏻
Thank you
At least kind of a happy end 😂
Keep going, i am looking forward to see your own project car.
Best greetings from Germany.
Thanks
Awesome sauce! So very happy to see this follow up video. It sounds marvelous.
Thanks so much!
Good luck
thank you
Good Show. Good Luck👍🏽
Thanks

Excellent

You are now the 2nd person i know with kingtec parts they are holding up
They've been good so far apart from some fitment issues. The true quality of those parts will show up once we tune the car
@@dnl35projectsstill holding up, after tune?
In king Tec pistons and rods so they are worth the money ?
Yes, they are holding up nicely so far however just like with all aftermarket parts, you need to ensure you double check all clearances and number before putting the engine together
How are the parts holding up?
Still doing fine ! I haven’t seen car for the past month and a half
What stage tune was on the car that caused the motor to fail? Ive heard these engines can't go past 750 lb ft tq or they will bend rods.
The owner said about 700Hp - Thats when the rods start to search for a new place to live 🤣 🤣

What caused the factory engine to fail?
A tune caused the engine to bend a rod creating a ticking noise - The car was taken to a local shop which diagnosed as a lifter issue and replaced a bunch of things on the engine head, while doing that they forgot something inside of the engine which blocked the oil pickup pipe causing the engine to seize
@@dnl35projects wow , ensurance ? did they pay the owner ?
So how much do you take for a rebuild..
The cost will vary according to what is wrong with the engine but generally speaking you will spend around $8k in parts and another U$5 - 10k in labour depending on what needs to be done (Eg. sleeving the block adds $3k)
@@dnl35projects okay cheaper to buy a nother working engine then 🤷🏻♂️
It would definitely be cheaper however the used engine can run for 2 months and blow up, you'll be back to square one. Doing a rebuild will cost more but give you peace of mind in the long run
Po você é brasileiro?
Oi Aécio, sou sim brother 🤙 Mas pelas estilísticas vejo q tem menos de 1% de brasileiros aki no canal
😹took a moment
😄
So what do you think about the Kingtec piston and rod combo ??? I'm super curious now !!!
We had some sizing issues but that was rectified before we build the engine. They should be good as long as you double check all your clearances when assembling the engine
@@dnl35projectsWhat was the issue?
