I can't believe knowledge like this comes free. Thank you so much, this was an excellent tutorial that helped me understand what you need to build an engine. Your confidence is contagious.
Well it's not so free you need a computer or cellphone, internet subscription, watch ads on youtube. It was always free to learn by yourself, you could borrow an engine building book at the local library for free. Thing is it was way longer to learn by reading, now with technology we can learn so much faster with videos and we can get support online by talking to knowledgable people.
When I was 17, I overhauled a 4g63 from an Evo3 with little to no knowledge of what am I doing and if what I'm doing is right. All I know is that the Evo3 is mine now and the engine is still purring like brand new
You are amazing at putting Engines together in a flash mate. You must have studied the hell out of the 4B Platform Engines which is why you are hella efficent!!! Man I wish you where my mentor 😁
I never comment on videos, but I had to for this one, I really enjoyed this video! No stupid and crazy edits, just valuable information and tips! Awesome work!
I like how he laid it out into parts 1. Fixing of the crankshaft 2. Fixing of the pistons into the cylinders 3. Fixing of the camshaft 4. Fixing of the flywheel Very educational👌
What a fantastic video. After watching other assembly videos where guys seem to just throw parts at the block, it was really cool to see you taking your time to clean everything, check gaps and actually torque bolts correctly. Well done.
Thanks for being part of the Evo community. Keeping us grounded with the content you bring. Gives us confidence to do the work ourselves. Keep up the good work brah
Love the videos you make. Very descriptive, precise, and clean. It’s not confusing at all. Another great video dude. You deserve 1 mil subscribers to be honest.
I’m seeing this 2 years later from when posted and I’m so glad I found a very clean 08 lancer DE. this video is gonna make the engine maintenance/over haul very easy I’m tempted to buy a used engine and completely go off of his parts list and specs and want to make the same amount of power out of a base model lancer. if this is the motor he put in his camo evo X, then this engine made 703 hp witch is mind boggling but for now I gotta see if this rod knock engine is completely toasted or salvage-able for another 6 months to a year work horse engine till I get the funds up for a build. it’s crazy how sponsorships and every follower helps so much I wish he could be able to read this and give me some pointers or just chat with me but none the less this was an amazing video!
This video gives me the confidence to know that I could do it but also the knowledge that I don't have the tools or space necessary to do it anytime soon.
Ok so by watching the full length of this video. I realized that the there isn't any seperate Spark Plug Oil Well Gaskets/Sealer for the Spark Plug Holes (usually located underneath the Cylinder Head Assembly) or on a seperate Rocker Arm assembly as is with alot of older SOHC models of 90s vehicles. The entire Valve Cover itself has the Valve Cover Gasket that performs both functions (both seals the Valve Cover to the Cylnder Head Assembly and seals the Oil Spark Plug Wells)...thank you so so much for making this video and helping me better understand the intracacies of my 4B12. now I don't have to ask EricTheCarGuy if my Engine Platform has Gaskets/Spark Plugs for my Spark Plug Oil Wells 🙇♂️
dude I love your videos so freaking much. even though I dont have the cars that you have, the same concept in alot of things applies to pretty much all cars and parts theres just different ways to go about it. hope this video helps some people with this build or any build! keep up the good work devin !
It drives me nuts when these big, great channels, still say, welcome to my channel. Come on man, you got a name. Say it loud, say it proud. You’ve built a brand, wear that name tag proudly.
At 7:18 when torquing you should continue to follow thru with the rotation and not stop or you’ll get a inaccurate result especially when doing higher specs.
Thank you very much for this excellent video! This is the best by far I’ve seen. Can’t wait to finish working on my daughter’s car. I’ve been hesitant but your video just gave me lots of knowledge and confident. God Bless you and again thank you for this outstanding video! Working on an equinox with also 4 cylinder engine.
Thanks for the informative step by step 4b11 block build, hope you made sure the oil pan doesn't leak by adding little oil making sure seals is air tight.
BRo! Very detailed video on my Evo x engine. You got mad skills I wish i can subscribe twice. Make me feel more confident about motor work on my car now.
Stunning video. Was absolutely glued to the screen for 40 mins. I'm looking to rebuild my Saab B207 engine and it's very similar. I could literally not have found a better video. THANK you!
Also, after torquing all the bolts in a sequence at the crank/head, double verify each one so they are to spec, because sometimes some of them can become loose while tightening the other bolts
So much knowledge and yrt i cant believe i watched it to the end even though i dont have an evo or even an engine to rebuild, thanks for the tips and content brotha 😁😂
Very entertaining and informative. A video that actually goes through every little step instead of skipping like other build videos. I wish it showed more tho, like installing the remaining parts, like manifolds, alternator etc. and the actual installment in the car and running it.
Thank you for taking the time to share this build with us! Can tell that it's something you really enjoy :) Saving this for later when it's time to rebuild my Supra.
For your piston rings they make a tool that makes it level. Not trying to criticize but there were a few mistakes as a master mechanic i noticed but over all not too bad of a video. Id advise getting an engine stand and also your torque wrenches should always be tested to make sure their in tolerances.
Hass this Right Here, All Evo owners NEED TO WATCH THIS VIDEO Straight up 💯💪👍 Dam Boy, Awesome Vid Man... People don't even realize what just happened here...👍💯
Golden Point - The correct way to torque any engine is to torque the centre and go outwards ie torque the inside and then the beside bolts and then the beside bolts etc as this causes smoothening of the gasket and will cause the least losses by escaping gases
Golden Point - Using 2 camshafts creates 2 valves opening and closing with opposite forces acting on them and so it causes valve breakage, uneven opening and closing of valves and uneven fuel air mixture and so uneven burning of fuel and so causes knocking and accidents and early breakdown of the engine
Great video, I wanted to rebuild my engine with better internals but was too scared to do it but you made it look so easy and gave me the confidence to rebuild my engine
Golden Point - Anything ie Piston moving in any hole ie Bore or Block has to have even sides for the movement to be the most fluid and without any resistance or problems
Pretty cool man, pretty cool. I wanted to see it RUN ------ but it was still pretty cool. Some sections of the video that to YOU seem too simple are not so simple for complete novices like myself, I am starting to watch these type of videos and learn, so if you can speak a bit clearer and a tiny bit slower it would help. Thanks a lot for doing this.
I have so much respect for you, that you do this all by yourself. I mean... There are so many evo channels out there but yours is so different to all of them. The process of learning by failure is something we all need to face at some point and to learn all these things with you (and even on my evo #AYCPumpFailsEverywhereOnThePlanet).. It's just amazing! Keep up the good work Devin, you're a great guy. Greetings from Germany.
Sir you are so clear super easy.i am interior designer but i am learning auto mechanic for a hobby..your video helped me alot.if you can address me any learning sites i will be great thankful...big thanks from Saudia Arab.
Golden Point - All Armies are to correct all the above including teaching all people interested in the correct way to repair engines and all are to have spacious and well furnished workshops with refreshments, safety equipment including uniforms or overalls, shoes, lubricants, Cleaning agents, greases etc ie everything required and all of the above is at Emmy's Expense ( IMF ) ( El )
Golden Point - The Piston has to be evenly weighted right from the top to the bottom for it to have the best possible frictionless movement inside the block
I wish you did this tutorial video with a evo 9 engine because this is one of the best if not the best easy tutorial video Edit: I meant evo 8 prest the wrong number
Golden Point - The Piston has to have rings at the top as well as at the bottom to ensure even movement of the Piston to avoid scratching of the bore ie if it has rings but the Piston rings are unnecessary and are only there to scratch the bore
Golden Point - Aluminium is being used for the block, head and the pistons in order to increase breakdowns, cause accidents and to loot as much as possible in repairs and replacements and so using Aluminium to prepare anything associated with a engine is strictly banned. ( El )
Golden Point - A camshaft and a crankshaft have to be connected by belt drives for smooth frictionless movement and not chain dtives which cause slippages, easy breakdown , uneven movement, uneven valve opening, incomplete burning and exhaust of gases and so a completely inefficient engine likely to cause accidents and breakdowns
Great video devin as always your a great inspiration on the evo x community..but i do want to mention that the long block was not completed cause you used stock cams..overall hopefully this will not detonate like the first one..and why did it detonate it was also a built motor..nice work😊
Might try doing a build like this except with the 4b12 for the bigger displacement. Haven't found a solid reason it shouldn't make as much if not more power. Who agrees?
In two of David's videos he has stated that the timing chain guide bolts go to 17 inch pounds and this is incorrect! They are torqued to 88 inch pounds +- 17. This is equivalent to 7.3 foot pounds
I can't believe knowledge like this comes free. Thank you so much, this was an excellent tutorial that helped me understand what you need to build an engine. Your confidence is contagious.
I agree. What a great guy
He gets paid so we all win.
Great vid ty.

Sounds like something a 17 year old car enthusiast should pay attention to.🙋♂️Thanks for the great content!😁
Me too 😁
Ayee I'm 17 n watching this too!
I’m 17 and watching this 😂😂

Dude i was so tuned in i didnt realize 40mins has gone by 😂 Solid video!
SAME!!!!!!!!!!
Wtf dead ass!!💀😂
Hello sir
Breh I swear I’m here literally gauged in on his block 😂 disassemble and reassemble for me please I need to know how this goes😂
Yeah this was great
The hustle Devo puts in is unmatchable
Cameron Niemela definitely
I didn't even realize that was your bro until I saw the jaw line and last name 😂

It was just right. Thank you
This is the first ever in depth engine build video I’ve ever watched. Extremely educational and I learned a lot!
I like how he laid it out into parts
1. Fixing of the crankshaft
2. Fixing of the pistons into the cylinders
3. Fixing of the camshaft
4. Fixing of the flywheel

I like your attention to detail, your thoroughness and cleanliness. You remind me of my dad who built street rods all his life.

Nice bearings, I used to work at ACL Metal Powders to make the metal powder that goes into the ACL bearings
I'm building a 3rd engine with this same video over the years. It's so crazy how free info is

NOTI-GANG!! This is just what I needed to help me become familiar with how to build a engine. Good stuff!
It drives me nuts when these big, great channels, still say, welcome to my channel. Come on man, you got a name. Say it loud, say it proud. You’ve built a brand, wear that name tag proudly.
You really make a good quality content 40 min video and it seemed like it was 20 min video, i wasn't bored at all. Great job dude.
At 7:18 when torquing you should continue to follow thru with the rotation and not stop or you’ll get a inaccurate result especially when doing higher specs.
The faith in that trestle table is next level.
Not going to lie this video is solid! Im also going to go on and say that I had no idea of the terms that were being used lol
I have watched a ton of rebuild videos recently, this is legitimately a really good one. I will be rewatching it a few times. Thanks!
Il trust this guy to rebuild my engine any day he's so calm and collective. Thank you for this video I really appreciate it 🙂☺️.

Great work superbly presented, thank you from a non turbo 4B11 owner!
😯😯😯🚗🚕🚗
Great video and your explanations confirmed my knowledge and helped me to build the confidence I need to rebuild engines on my own. Thanks again
Also, after torquing all the bolts in a sequence at the crank/head, double verify each one so they are to spec, because sometimes some of them can become loose while tightening the other bolts
thank you Sir, you inspired me on how to rebuild the engine from scratch. thanks again
So much knowledge and yrt i cant believe i watched it to the end even though i dont have an evo or even an engine to rebuild, thanks for the tips and content brotha 😁😂
Real shit, thank you soooo much! I’m planning my first build, I’ve never built anything before, and this was suuuch an informative video💜🔥🖤🙌🙌🙌💯💯💯💯☠️
Fluffinator 3D how did it go my dude? I hope well?
Kevin Luna bro got caught in the explosion from his messed up build
Bro look how far you made it. Respect
Very entertaining and informative. A video that actually goes through every little step instead of skipping like other build videos.
I wish it showed more tho, like installing the remaining parts, like manifolds, alternator etc. and the actual installment in the car and running it.
i dont even know how to drive a car but im love with car engines
2 years later but what a great video!
Coffee filters and automatic trans fluid is also a great way to clean the engine out before assembly. Cheap and easy to find as well.
Wow you made this look more straight forward than those ikea instructions
this video just saved me a huge headache rebuilding part of my 4b11t. wish i pulled the motor though
You're a legend. Just look at that description. Everything is here. Nice!
This was a great guide, really nice to see a full evo engine build and the attention to detail you use. Nice 😎👍
Thank you for taking the time to share this build with us! Can tell that it's something you really enjoy :) Saving this for later when it's time to rebuild my Supra.
I don't own an evo, I don't have a single tool, I will never build or even touch an engine, but i still watched the full video. I like this shit.
For your piston rings they make a tool that makes it level. Not trying to criticize but there were a few mistakes as a master mechanic i noticed but over all not too bad of a video. Id advise getting an engine stand and also your torque wrenches should always be tested to make sure their in tolerances.
To be honestly fair I’m here to learn and right from the start I’ve already learned so much 😂😅😂 thanks it really does teach me something 🙌
Same here im a lube tech right now and am in school to get fully certified and i just wanted to watch so i have a bit of a head start.
This was an awesome video, well presented, very detailed & i learned a lot. Gotta get my 4G63 done
Hass this Right Here, All Evo owners NEED TO WATCH THIS VIDEO Straight up 💯💪👍 Dam Boy, Awesome Vid Man... People don't even realize what just happened here...👍💯
You have such amazing skills bro! I will be waiting when you do a 4g63 rebuild! This video is still awesome though! Thanks for this!
Has he mentioned doing a video for a 4G63? That would be awesome and totally agree what you mentioned above.
Attention to detail at its finest.
Dude great job man, no bs. Straight to the point knowledge guy. Very detailed
Golden Point - The cam or camshaft operates the valves which let in the fuel air mixture and allow exhaust gases to escape
i really hope this was not your biggest takeaway from the video 😂
Awsome video!! I might never do it, but I love seeing someone skilled do this job!!
Devin, you are a legend for sharing this. Many thanks. 🔥
Met you at spring fest 2 years ago and you were the nicest guy. Keep up the good content man.

thanks for dropping this knowledge bomb on us devin. keep it going my man
Beginning to end for me on your video. Super job on the build. Enjoyed watching...thanks!
Devin, you're an inspiration
Dude's really trusting that little table
Came for the rebuild,left subscribed!
Right!?
You never mentioned anything about setting valve lash on the head.
Awesome guide. I will attempt my first enginr rebuild. Thanks for sharing your skills.
you are amazing dude, great lesson Devin
best engine build vid i seen dude definitely will follow this when putting my motor back together soon
this video is GOLD
Thanks man! Really useful information and guidance you provide. Specially for those like me trying to make better mechanical works.

After watching this, I feel high. This is dope.
BMW mechanics also use plastigauge as per workshop instructions. Its a great invention.
Golden Point - The Piston has to be evenly weighted right from the top to the bottom for it to have the best possible frictionless movement inside the block

Thanks so much I can’t thank you enough for the knowledge you dropping on us
As a self respecting machinist who does car work on the side. I would never leave metal chips on my part when I finish machining it
Hi fair enough for your comment, but I don’t see you give my friend credit for his excellent video...
@@Silkroads733he’s not criticizing devin. he’s saying devin wouldn’t have found metal if he hired homie to machine something like engine parts.
It's very comprehensive. Awsome.
I wish you did this tutorial video with a evo 9 engine because this is one of the best if not the best easy tutorial video
Edit: I meant evo 8 prest the wrong number
? In the future can u do it for the evo 8 pls ur the only one that teaches good and it’s easy steps u do
