Make sure you head over to the new @SBIVavletrain UA-cam Channel! www.youtube.com/@SBIValvetrain
We've been using their parts in our shop for decades! Really appreciate them supporting us all these years!
Do you ever cool the valve seats (and valve guides) in dry ice to make it easier to press them in ?
High Quality parts and Service
@@NICK-uy3nlyou can maybe icebox them
Do it right the first time and you get the customer back with a different motor and they will tell their friends about your quality of work
Thank you for using SBI! We appreciate you and everyone's support through the years!
Good on you guys for sponsoring Jim's! This channel made me aware of your products.
Good products. Have used SBI for a long time. Thank you for supporting the channel
I worked with with many companies that sold SBI, but you guys gotta make more parts for these classic cars though.
Thanks for sponsoring these honest guys, they deserve it.
Man, I love you and your dad’s relationship. Honestly I’m jealous. You guys are great.
My father passed a year ago tonight, I definitely wish we had a much closer relationship like this compared to barely ever talking.
My dad died when I was young over ten years ago now probably more than 15. It's always great watching these guys
My dad died in 78 and every year he still gets a little smarter than me 😂
My father passed in '18. We were close like this. Camping, dirt bikes, construction. He taught me so much. I miss you pops.
Agree, the relationship is superb...I don't know who is enjoying the moment the son the dad or his mom.. one of the moments dear he wants to have a you tube video with you. "Oh he'll no don't mess with me.." and look now.
Your old man is so humble I love how he focuses on everything the previous machine shop did well instead of crucifying them. Y'all are a class act and you're lucky you get to call him "Dad"! love the content.
💯 when something is not as he would do it, or doesn’t know why, he says he doesn’t know and assumes they were doing what they thought was right.
“And make it as good as we possibly can.” That’s the kind of work ethic that allows a human being to lay their head on the pillow knowing they did a good job for their customer. Well done!
absolutely!!!
and the Attention to Detail and the High Quality Work is off the charts
because if the work isn’t up to their standards, then it doesn’t leave the shop until it is up to their standards
What an absolute JOY it is to watch this channel. A guru father teaching his craft to his son. Doesn't get anyy better than this!!
The best thing to me is not only the positive relationship they have, but that dad is open to learning from son as well as the other way round. It is how all good teaching/learning situations are, we work together. Incredible content, wonderfully relaxed, and lovely genuine people. Thank you from Down Under.
No other success will compensate for failure in the home
I was shocked when you looked in the Chilton book for the specs.
Im 59 years old.
My dad owned a shop when i was a kid.
We had Chilton books for everything.
All our time for painting and repairs.
Keep up the good work 😊
Total blast from the past!
I've still got all my Chilton's manuals, and many of the service manuals from over 5 decades of working.
@@Wheel_Horse That's cool. They're nice to have
@@montymartin4493 Yeah nice to look through them and reminisce, but little use to me any longer. I should part ways with a lot of my junk so my family doesn't need to get stuck doing it when... you know...! ⚰
Starting in the 70’s first thing I bought for every vehicle was a Chilton’s hardcover until soft cover came around. Now for my 2020 Sierra seems to be online only.
"Cleaning guy" tells you that you need to clean up your mess. 🤣
I thought that 😂
Came here to say exactly this.
"Cleaning Guy" needs to stay in his lane! 😂😂
There’s only one thing I dislike about all your videos and that would be when they end. Can’t wait to see this ol’ 235 fully assembled 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks SBI for supporting the channel
The slow motion of Dad with the big hammer and the smile is priceless.
Worked in a trade over 20 years. When you spend that much time, if you're good at what you do, you pick up little sensory cues of something going wrong before most people would ever think there was problem.
14:43 , your father knew right away the tone change of the driver on the vale seat was wrong with the impact driver. He didn't force the issue, moved on to the next one for the time being.
Its those fine little things I love seeing in all these videos I watch, a testament to how much experience your father has, how his primary senses of touch, hear, and feel is better than any manual in print or tool made to do it better.
If anyone sees and appreciates the same, the crank grinding vids are a masterpiece of pure sensory operation while simply watching a simple dial on the machine.
Thank you gor a great channel. No stupid music, needles jump cuts. Love the slow motion. Your videos should be used in trade schools.
Fact dude music would send me
I am beginning to suspect the cleaning guy knows more about stuff than we are led to believe. 😂
Nice professional job, by nice professionals, in a nice clean professional shop. Terrific work! Thanks so much for taking the time to make the video!
The shop is clean because "The Cleanup Guy" told his son to clean it up. :-)
I absolutely love the interaction between the two of you and the calm explanations.
None of the typical shouting that you see so often.
Just two people with a great work ethic doing the thing they love and are good at.
You have such a wonderful relationship with your father, it's such wholesome content honestly.
The level of knowledge and raw experience he has just shines in these vids.
I really enjoy watching you guys. My Father is in his 80s and a retired Machinist. I learned so much from him just understanding what he was trying to tell me. That and doing the Math changed my path over 40 years ago. Thank you...
A good automotive machine shop is peace of mind.
Love y’all’s videos cause there’s nothing better than a father and son working together and having the relationship you two have.
I was lucky enough to take a tour of both of the shops after making a delivery for them they are truly craftsman
Nice job gentlemen, What a team. Not many realise how much specialist equipment is required to PROPERLY overhaul an engine. I can appreciate how much Jim has had to reinvest back into the business over the passed 40 years to ensure his customers are provided the best service possible. Its your turn now Nicholas. 😊👍👌
I really appreciate your channel. I have a 45 year background as a prototype/ toolmaker machinist and I really appreciate the difference made clear. Keep on making these videos.
I really enjoy learning from you two. There’s no drama no undue stress just a great couple of guys showing the rest of us what they do. Thanks to your spouses for supporting you two sharing with us.
Beautiful job, the customer definitely took that head the the best place for a rebuild.
Yes Jim:)
Every time we watch your channel…
We learn something.
Especially the crank grinder:)
When you put stop bolt in between the crank weights.
How flexible a Big Cummins Crank.
Jim - you can also straighten a crank if it’s bent.
They jack it in the bent spot.
Use a soft race driver and hammer ..
Give it a wack about the fillet section:)
V - Blocks hold the crank on each end.
Then you hack on the low spot
Sometimes it has to be repeated 2 or 3 times
After it’s within .001 or .002
Put it in your grinder and start grinding
@34:00
THAT... is a happy man, well satisfied with his life, his work, and his present company.
That is NEAT to see. ❤
I came across your channel about a month ago and I absolutely love that you guys work on everything, from farm equipment to out of the norm rare engines. You and your working relationship with your dad reminds me soo much of my younger days spending thousands of hours working in the machine shop with my dad and uncles during race season. Love the transparency and explanation of everything. Everyone keep yourselves and love ones safe and healthy and remember to SMILE 😊God Bless 🙏
I had thar motor in my 1952 Chevy and in my 1954 Chevy.
Long ago now.
I enjoy watching you and your son working together.
God bless y'all
Those Valve Guide Seals almost look like the Perfect Circle Valve Guide Seals we used back in the 60's we Built many a Engine back in those days using them and never ran into problems using them. you two do Great work and i am amazed at all of this new technolgy. at 75 i am learning alot from you both. thank's.
Jim is very thorough in his explanations but makes it so a novice in machining can understand. Great video series!
That’s the one we sell surface jobs with! Gold! You guys are great. Thanks for the videos!
Vinton positive seals started using them in the early 80's and never had a failure.
What even are they tho
Same here. Our local machinist has been cutting the guides on SBC engines to accommodate SBF positive seals for years and it definitely helps with oil control issues.
Thanks SBI for sponsorship!
From a man that just recently lost his mom . Take advantage of having her make you lunch every day . Moms cooking is always the best and once you cant get it anymore you realize how much you loved it
I'm so sorry for your loss 🙏
36:14 Cleaning guy out here shaking hands with danger for 40 years 😂😂(edit: also the smile while he used it you know hes thinking about the comments the whole time 🤣)
Great editing! Great education
Thanks for watching!
I see you got the SBI cookies on the workbench.
Today in Canada it's family day. I'm glad to see the wonderful relationship you and the cleaning guy got
What an awesome thing to watch on family day
Hope you enjoy those cookies together
Wow I have learned so much and I am 73 year old retired technician for Ford and Chevrolet. That was one fine looking 235 Chev head and I have seen several of them. I used to drive a 74 Corvette 80 miles some days to pick up parts on emergency jobs. All the other technicians would complain because they didn’t get to do it but I could do it on my lunch time. It had the 300 hp 327 cui engine and it was smelling like burnt paint and hot brake pads when I got back. It would cruse at 100 mph and do 140 mph on I 70 in the Missouri River bottom interstate. No State Patrolman could catch me. It stuck like glue on the secondary curved roads.
Thankful for JAMSI - Great entertainment and instruction !
Ahhh, the trusty ole Heinz assembly lube...good stuff 😂
I would say that you have a pretty good cleaning guy there. He seems to catch on quickly.
I love how clean the language is in these videos so wholesome!
I have no idea wth you are doing but I am impressed.
Sorry.
Looks Perfect and Kudos to SBI. Thanks
Thanks for bringing us along with you as you make repairs.
We also oven clean all of our iron components, if a head has removable guides we always remove them before putting them in the oven, most often simplifying the extraction process.
We generally do as well; however, in this instance we debated not replacing all of the guides. Once it was cleaned & we checked a bit closer we decided to go ahead and replace them all!
@@JAMSIONLINE Nothing happens by chance in your shop.
Learned a lot on a Sunday evening, thanks for the upload 😊
How many valve guides did the "cleaning guy" break off? Hahahahahaha. I loved the ketchup bottle and the obvious joke. I'm looking forward to the next video.
Love watching, seeing a little of new school and old school mix every video is a new adventure. Can’t wait for another one, keep on the great videos
Safety is everything in your trade, give those tulips a grind to clean them up please. I have had good experiences with those valve seals on the older motors.
Here in Denmark, we call it beard
I always wondered how all this was done. Thanks to the magic of technology, I now know. Thanks.
Fascinating. Experience is still the best teacher. The 'cleaning guy' is good!
I like how your seat cutter varies the speed so as to reduce/eliminate chatter.
Good ol' Chilton manuals. A literal wealth of knowledge and information at your fingertips .
These videos are just fascinating. I think I have learned more in the couple hours I have watched your channel than I have elsewhere in the last few years combined. Excellent work guys.
Thanks for the content, it is so neat to have a machinist that works on things that I understand what they are!
Watching "The Cleaning Guy" is like watching Gale Banks, you are learning while watching.
Always great seeing great workmanship and even better to know that they stand behind their work and would resolve any issues if they ever did arises.
Well done guys one of the most interesting head builds you've done, top vid.
For some reason this is SO satisfying to watch. Nothing like watching you cut valve seats.
I've seen a few of your videos about the venerable 235...I had one when I was 12 years old, in a 53 Belair convertible...early 53, with poured rod bearings...my Dad and I rebuilt that engine in the backyard, on sheets of plywood. We cut up beer cans for main bearing shims. Wound up rebuilding and installing a 56 235.
Love it! Very thorough and precise work. Almost like a lost art. This head will be great for many, many thousands of miles!
The skill, knowledge, and experience on show here, is off the scale. You have a very special father, love and cherish him every day. Thank you from London, UK.
I can attest to being pinged by piece of a mushroomed brass mallet it caught me right in the lip.
Lol we aren't arguing that it can happen with certain material drivers... just arguing that these drivers don't seem to do that :P
@@JAMSIONLINE Yep, you're absolutely right, they don't do that until they DO!
wish i could learn how to do this work, been a mechanic/tech all my life and have always had a respect for the machinist.
Thanks for posting this.I have 2 of these (1962 cast ) 235’s that I’m rebuilding.got them cheap,your info is priceless
You two are an absolute joy to watch work together, and are walking encyclopedias of machine knowledge.
Thank you, and keep up the good work!
I thought of THOR when Dad was pounding in the valve seats in slo-mo! LOL! Excellent job gents!
Great job guys as always. Love the relationship you and your dad has very nice.
One of the most interesting engines I ever rebuilt was in a 1939 Chevy pickup. It was an original 216 with oil dippers on the rods and 5 piston rings on the pistons; 3 rings above the wrist pin and 2 oil control rings below it. I was surprised at how smooth and quiet it ran when I got through with it.
I love your videos. These are honest, calm, and clear demonstrations of how to do this work properly. I doubt people realize how many machines, tools, and cutters are required to do a "simple job," like restoring an old straight-6 head. Beautiful results!
Nice camera work, thank you. Wonderful work on the head, can't wait to see the rest!
A definite pleasure to watch a master machinist at work. So cool!
Friends...this is DECADES OF EXPERIENCE - FANTASTIC MACHINE AND HAND WORK!!!!! WOW!!!!
100% great video and workpersonship. 😊. You fellas are impressive and reassuring for the future. Love it that good enough is not the first thought. Thank you, cheers.
We have a 235 in my grandpas 3100. We need to start it some time this year. Its been over 2 or 3 years since its started and ran.
You should consider using a like light oil to spray in till it stalls if you can't run it awhile I've had good luck with it with small engines it's a little extra work to start them again but it's almost always just crank a bunch and clean the plugs
Why does it NEED to be started? If it's just to idle it for a half hour, you're doing nothing, in fact more harm then good!
@@alro2434 I've seen alot of stuff rust up because the oil falls off like the cylinder walls and the cam lobes when it sits for a long time it's mostly fine in a climate control storage but most garages or just outside it'll act as a heatsink so it'll be cold in the warmer day and collect moisture in alot of places maybe not in a desert but definitely where I live. Sure starting it will cause some ware but it'll recover everything in oil, it's best to drive them even a little your right it's good for the rest of the drivetrain too
Damn that is some beautiful work!!!! Amazing job!!!! I love that you guys run the newer seals and machine it for it.
that type of knowledge and skills, priceless, a true magician...
Learned many things from your videos, the number one thing is to have patience. Thank you
So much knowledge with these guys… Love the work!
This woman is a gem of a person. Hope she is truly loved!
I’ve watched a lot of UA-cam videos but this is the most completely satisfying one I’ve seen.
Excellent video . A great restoration on that old head . Thanks for sharing .
Great work as always. Thanks for sharing.
I’ve been waiting to see this one and looking forward to the next chapter. Thanks,great job
Your pops has an amazing wealth of knowledge, talent, and experience. Wished I had stayed working at the machine shop out of high school in ‘89. I build (assemble)engines a lot, and have probably done around 200 of them to date, and do “simple” valve work that doesn’t require any major machinery. Just finished a 5.4 supercharged Ford…what a learning experience. Keep up the great work at the shop and in your content. Appreciate your time to make these videos
A genuine, auto machine shop. Very well explained with outstandinng camera work. Two generations and their differences, as well as similarities, of techniques used! My new "go to" shop show. Good stuff, guys.
Beautiful work by American craftsmen! Thank you for another great episode : )
Havent watched a huge amount of the content from this channel but when I do I always love the attention to detail and my god, the KNOWLEDGE you guy's posses. Its remarkable and makes me want to learn machining from you guys haha.
thanks so much for all this. I have only carried my parts over and say do this. Never seen it done with an explination of how and why. Never seen a man using a hammer on a motor and smiling. Every time I see the hammer used its with bright colorful language.
I just subscribed and really are enjoying the content, As a mechanic of 38 years, I have had my experience of machine shop's and would like to say, you two I consider Top Notch!
Been doing job shop machining for 25 years and most things that come in the shop bores me. Engine machining fascinates me as its something I've never had a chance to do and watching you guys work is very enjoyable.
I wish I had you both when I was younger and working on my cars. You two are amazing to warch.
Very educational. Good job.
Gotta say I'm loving the content. As an HD tech that's almost always going in blind as a jack of all trades, it's very refreshing to see an engine master at work!
Having a 54 and a 62 235. I really enjoy seeing this. Just love a 235 with 3 on the tree. I also have 2 cylinders. So it's nice to see a machine shop. Working on these old motors.
I too very much appreciate the early 1950's Chevs, however I'm not fond of the 3-on-the-tree gear change.
Watching from the State of Rhode Island as always-Ha! Great for us engine nerds-"fun/interesting"-thanks for another great post! Much peace!
Nice work! Thanks for the info!
I was working on my 235 today. This is an informative vid. Thanks
