  • That is a good range if it's an RV cam it should be a good match but I wouldn't mess with it if it's a performance cam ther is a lot that plays in with a cam. Intake manifold, torque converter, gears, compression, headers. Be sure to it's matched to the year of your block and that u get springs that match the lift

  • I have done a few bottom ends and put heads on but I am gonna attemp a dodge 4.7,lol,a friend is gonna do machine work and told me he could short block it up for me but to save money I think I wanna do it .besides I enjoy biuldin them,but Im worried,thanks for the vid really!!it brought some things back I had forgotten..cool if youd do a 4.7 though!really thanks guys!

  • @94Gtxgohan - @needzpower2 - thanks for the help, I appreciate it

  • I LIKE TO SAY PEOPLE THAT SAY U NEED TO RE-PROGRAM THE truck/car afterwards doesn't always needs to happen but its is recommended just to be safe go to a local mechanic and pay the money to program it for 100 bucks or cheaper i can get it re-programed its coast around 50 for me

  • love ur vids!

  • I need someone's help, I was going to put in a new camshaft in my 94 Jeep 5.2L 318 small block. The camshaft says that the basic operating range for it is 1000-4500 RPM. My question is if it would be ok to use that camshaft on a daily driver? Thanks

  • @LivinLoud9417 I am in no way an experienced mechanic and going to a local shop although it may be embarising would be your best bet. Talk to the mechanics ad see what they have to say. The cam your looking at has an operating range of 1-4500 RPM's so it gives you added power in those RPM's. This means you'll feel more HP in those RPM's. So your top end will be less powerful than your top end. The type of cam you want to buy depends on your driving style. I would say again talk to a shop.

  • @LivinLoud9417 im going to say yes due to because when driving your most likey not going to be going past 4500 rpm not gunning it but if u do it would still be okay cause then 4600-6000 rpm should be most your going to be putting and should help on gas a little bit

    its hard to explain this well but you should be fine

  • What!! You said you don't need to reprogram the cpu after you altered the engine. The engine alone is drawing in more air than before, and the compression ratio was also changed. I don't see how a computerized car can run right without the help of a reprogrammer. I enjoyed the vids, but you guys on the not reprogramming the car don't know what you are talking about.

  • I want that truck so bad. It looks so great

  • It's 50/50 top and bottom to increase hp, u can have 64cc heads w/ big valves and still have low compression, his vortec heads are around 65cc combined with the flat tops he's looking at 9.5:1 compression not to metion the longer stroke. And the mas air flow sensor monitors the amput of air intake and will allow the engine to get the right fuel mixture. Theres a reason you tards are leaving dumb comments and he's the one rebuilding your engines.

  • @blindasbat509 So to increase or decrease compression, what would you have to do interms of injectors and heads? What about when you add forced induction into the equation? Im trying to wrap my head around compression and doing research..

  • Great videos guys...and obviously the haters liked the videos too... that's why they watched all of them...lmfao!

  • Not sure how that motor even runs with all the mistakes during the build.. Very un-professional...

  • thanks for the FREE info watched all the vids.

    forget what all these haters think

  • very detailed job i love that..... thanks a lot guys..

  • added 90 hp? i doubt that, top end isnt as good anymore with a stroker, and thats where your peak hp comes from

  • Quite addictive!

    I'm training to become a mechanical engineer at university and my mind just draws me to this kind of stuff. Haha!

    Great set of videos!

  • yea now for all the people that own import or european cars, its about 6x as complicated as this build, not knocking these guys cause they do a great job but just like the man says, now u know why a rebuild costs so much.

  • @turbo3oh I built my own 500 hp sr20det. 500 hp in a Nissan 2.0  liter (121) Turbocharged 4 cylinder. And honestly watching the whole series, the build on the jap engine is slightly easier, half the cylinders, only one head to put in. But most importantly overhead camshafts with no cam bearings to worry about. I can literally replace both my camshafts in 30 minutes or less, and I am not a professional mechanic. I did notice that the torque specs on the japanese engine were higher though.

  • Wow... If you do anything to the engine, you need a retune, otherwise... You wasted your money on the product/upgrade. The guy in this vid needs to do some research

  • if you made it bigger wouldn't you want to reprogram the computer to allow the correct fuel/air ratio. if not you're running a chance of running lean on both ends wasting gas in the process.

  • This was very helpfull Thank You for your time and knowledge I love to turn wrenches and this was AWESOME! THANKS A BUNCH

  • Sorry if I'm repeating anyone but these guys seem to ignore the way an engine works. More cubes always means more power, right? WRONG In many cases, increasing cubes through a longer stroke without the benefit of more air and fuel will put the peak tq lower in the rpms thus lowering peak hp. The truth is that he has no idea if he gained or lost power without putting in on a dyno. There were a few good points about the video but these people do not have an understanding of power production.

  • haha i just love how every chevy lover thinks they can just do a few minor things inside a small block and think they are going to hit 400hp LMFAO!!!

  • Nice videos! This is what community is about. Thanks!

  • I really enjoyed your videos...you are an excellent  teacher! I learned a great deal from you...Thanks!

  • 255hp to 285 maybe

  • one of these days when i get a house with a garage... very informative videos! Im smarter already!

  • Helped me understand so much!

    Thanks guys :)

  • Awsome man... I couldn't stop watching vids :)

  • F"in great video. Very nice instructions and steps, not hard to follow, and very descriptive. Thanks, needed a little refresh and it was for free and not 150 dollar dvd.

  • i want to be a mechanic when i grow up and this helped me alot to learn about an engine

  • NICE

  • i think it is silly not to have that sort of build tuned on the rollers..

  • How much did this motor cost to build?

  • Hello, Valy in Romania and to welcome you and want to congratulate you for what you do, you can see you love what you do, passion, determination and precision do nothing to chance and it shows without being great specialist, CONTINUE people have something to learn from YOU.

  • Do have in mind that not every service will do that for you! Most of them will do the most important things first, than asemble the engine and say it's done. Not long after that when the engine fails they will blame the oil or the driver for been careless...

  • I have a 10:1 full roller 383 with 64cc/202 pro comp aluminium heads, edelbrock rpm intake, forged eagle crank,forged pistons, a cam that's makin hp to 6500rpm, the cam timing is also advanced 4 degrees. I'm running a MSD pro billit distributer w/a 6AL and blaster coil,4150 holly custom built for offroad use wich was ported and tuned for the engine by Advanced Engine Design. Huge long tube headers and i figure i'm at 450hp/500tq. How can your engine put out that much hp/Tq?

  • Interesting video. I need to get a rebuild on my 99 Prelude. It seems fairly complicated. I appreciate the information!

  • Great camera work , great series. Now I have a good idea of all the engine parts. Thanks

  • Good job guys! Lucky kid!

  • thanks a lot this was awesome

  • dont ya gotta break it in?

  • @oSHOLLIVERo I think it was a roller and there really isn't a breakin period. As far as the cam goes.

  • nice video's man. i learned alot thanks

  • thank.u

  • Great video, helped a lot.

    Thanks for the time you spent to explain to others in such detail.

  • outstanding

  • Thanks for this series. I watched them all and thought it was pretty good.

  • So, I watched the whole series, and it's a great series. Whoever dislikes the stock heads, intake, and exhaust is jumping the gun. Shure, there's more power to be had, but it all costs money.

  • to all the people that act like they know everything and talk shit about these guy....see that lil ASE badge on homeslices' sleeve?  that means sit the fuck down.

  • What would be a rough estemit for a rebuild on an 84 351w?

  • شكرا لكم شيء جميل جدا

  • Thank you for educating us sir! i watched all of them!

  • You Guys F**k'n ROCK... I feel like turning my LT1 into a 383 stroker after watching your video!!! Great job making the video. Your daughter is a lucky girl....

  • The best video ever ... Good job

  • how out of round were the cylinders with those miles?

  • poor engine did you even break it in??? there is major steps missing in most of these videos, you guys are hacks i would never take my engine there they said 0 valve clearance is fine hahahahaha

  • @DeVoN420zz ok so do you really want to have a shitty running engine that's tapping all the time? and BASIC steps..... everything is straight forward...... oil pump? dude.... you took it off, you put it on the same way. why are you being mean?

  • @WarWolfAngel001dont comment if your stupid its called valve clearence you need it or you valves ((WILL)) burn and youll loose power and compression once its warm due to the fact that metal expands when hot and who the fuck said anything about a fuel pump haha

  • @DeVoN420zz too LITTLE and your car will never run! my ex built her mustang cobra 5.0 using this... 111,056 miles later and ITS STILL RUNNING STRONG! why watch it if you think you know everything cuz obviously you don't cuz that is how Ford, Chevy and Dodge have built they're motors.

  • @WarWolfAngel001 do you even know what i"m complaining about? your really odd man your comments don"t make sense, do you even know what valve tappet clearance is?

  • @DeVoN420zz no please explain

    my comment was to say SHE used these to build a mustang cobra motor and used what they taught to build and you're telling me in burns valves? dude, her's runs fine

  • @WarWolfAngel001 your fucking retarded man this is so funny every comment you make you don"t read over it makes no scene. sooo you think i can read your mind. oww wait i can your brain is saying make a broken shit our of spec engine

  • @DeVoN420zz the fuck kind of shit are you on dude?

    how stupid can you get? here, let me tell you in your language. my wittle girlfwiend built a wustang cobwa 5.0 engine using these wittle videos and doesn't have a single burnt wittle valve. now, do you understand wittle boy or shall I talk in more of a better language for you? goo goo gaa gaa?

  • How chuch does a rebuild like this cost?

  • thanks guy great videos. i just bought a 1992 chevy c1500 it has a 305 short block stock, and also a 350 engine to rebuild to throw in it thanks for the motivation and i will definatly refer to these clips throughout this prosess. great job again

  • Very well done. Clearly stated steps, great examples and explanations, along with good camera work made the video series enjoyable to watch. Thank you for taking your experience and valuable time to make this presentation for the benefit of others. Oh yes, I am sure your daughter must have been pretty excited – that’s a great dad!

  • congratulations for your work and videos

  • man im 17 years old .. im in college 2 become a mechanic and i have an old 327 block.. which i am going to get bored out and make it into a 383 stroker.. your videos in this series has helped me out alot.. my engine is now on its way to becoming a 500 hp drag engine.. thanks

  • break it in how u drive it...

  • i feel.like taking my motor apart.n.putting it back...great video guys n very good info...

  • just finished watching all the parts......... great work crazy informative.. thanks

  • how much would it cost to get a 1989 240 sx motor and transmition rebuilt? about just like having it acid bathed new pistons cylinders honed out trying to make it good as new

  • What do you mean you don't need it. Oh, its for your daughter. Better not give her too much HP.

  • Jonathan if a engine is built right doesnt matter if u rev it or do burn out it wont blow now if its built wrong it will blow i still have my 347 stoker in my stang it took abuse the min we put it in and drag it and all and nos its got 136000 miles now and still runs like a champ only thing we did was let it idle for 20 mins to break the cam in

  • shouldve thrown some shorty headers and a larger cam and duel exhaust but other than that awesome vids!

  • shouldve thrown some shorty headers and a larger cam and duel exhaust but other than that awesome vids!

  • I sure liked the way you broke in all the new parts by revving engine and doing a little skid in parking lot, very unprofessional haha

  • I just watched them all to thanks for the help!

    

  • I just watched all 8 parts. Great series and very informative.

  • Incredibly helpful series! Thanks!!!!

  • grrat video i love engine rebuilt i did a 4g63 is still under construction n am planing to get only 300hp out of it thats all i want.... i love vhevy engines my next project culd be a 93 camaro

  • in houston texas a engine rebuild cost about $2100 for drive in pull engine out rebuild it and put back in it cost about$800 if you bring engine thats for a chevy engine though

  • been looking for a straight-up engine rebuilt, and i found it within your channel....thanks

  • nice viedeo im an asep graduate and im gonna build one soon thanks for the deatils. and thanks for not cutting corners.

  • Excellent job, I am rebuilding a toyota sienna, and it is my first time, so thanks for this video, it help a lot.

  • If you don't mind me asking, how much did this whole process cost because I'm thinking about doing this too and I just want to know what I'm getting into.

  • this rules you guys i have a few questions

  • one major point completely missed.. you need to spin the oil pump to pre lube all areas of the engine, and make sure it will hold oil pressure. failing to do that, you risk a dry start which can seriously damage the engine on initial start up.. also, you never mentioned checking the oil pressure on start up, or any break in procedures.. you just dropped it in ,then spun donuts in the parking lot.. not good.

  • @matman1490 go troll sumwere else :) jelous much?

  • @stoffmiester jelous? WTF? of someone that cant even spell and clearly cuts corners? Not hardly. As i said, you'll be doing the job again the right way in another 1000 miles when the top end statts banging from oil starvation... you even finish the vid by talking about skill and experience.. Too funny..

  • @stoffmiester of a lameass mechanic that cant spell and cuts corners? not hardly... ROFLMFAO.. what a dumb ass...

    jelous?? seriously?

  • thank you for  the video i learn a lot from this video.keep up the goods work.bst.

  • i have a 97 ford ranger XLT 4 cylinder. if i put a v6 in it woud i have to change the trnsmission or can i leave it the same

  • Thanks for your great videos,I must say the best ones I've seen yet.......very detailed from start to finish

  • you guys are amaizing !!!!!!!!!!!!!! loved these videos keep up thanks

  • The best engine build videos ever,i learned a lot thanks.

  • thanks for the vids

  • great set of vids, thank you

  • Great set of videos guys! I'm not sure if you talked me into or out of rebuilding my own engine but atleast now I have a small idea of the amount of work involved and how important the tight tolerences are. Thank you very much for taking the time. Matt Roy

  • I enjoyed it, cover alot of the large things i had questions on, thanks for taking the time to do it :)

  • Mike, i just want to say thank you for the great rebuild!! you are awesome man!!!

    Duane, thanx for you too for the great vids you always get us!!

  • i would NOT take an engine to u guys

  • @picapop12345 Why not

    

  • @master777999 they didnt gap and file the rings and they were new rings

  • @picapop12345 They might've off camera

  • @master777999 dont know i just dont take expencive chances

  • @picapop12345 Why is it important to gap and file the rings?

  • @master777999 so you dont scratch the walls and seese your engine

  • @picapop12345 Ah I gotcha

  • @master777999 lol?

  • What did your compression ratio end up being?

  • great work! THANKYOU 4 YOUR VIDEOS

    

  • Great series of videos! Thank you.

  • might help if you Alerted viewers to the need to "Break it in" after a rebuild, for the people reading this comment, when you rebuild an engine you have to first Break the New cams in which basically is running the engine at 2000Rpm for 20 minits, watching everything, have somebody sit in the drivers seat and have them watch the oil pressure gauge as closley as possible,

  • @chrisjohnramsay  you only need to do that on a flat tappet cam roller cams dont need that break in cycle but like he said when you get your new cam it will include the correct break in procedure with it so follow what the company says to do and you should be good and run mufflers open header break ins gets old quick

  • Thank you guys so much for making this video I am rebuilding my 98 silverado and this video tought me everything I needed to know again thank you guys great job.

    Brad

  • Good job. When I started this series I was wondering what I got myself into. By the end I could pretty much understand what you were doing. Excellent work.

  • YOUR THE MAN!!!!

  • I just blew up my LT1 and its time for an upgrade. This series is gonna hep me thru it! Thanks guys.

  • THANKS FOR THIS SERIES!!

  • Great Vids!!

  • So you all just rebuilt the motor you didn't have to do any tuning or chip to get it Runing right?

  • Really cool.. great job!

  • you guys are great!

  • thanks for spending the time to make this rebuild  videos.

  • good job

  • What an awesome video. It's amazing how simple the OHV engine really is.

  • thank you guys great work

  • sick video's boys. good work!

  • like yeah, i never thought rebuilding an engine was this easy, makes me wanna rebuild my 350, great videos

  • not to be mean, but where does the skill come in after seeing these videos, like how hard is it to torc down bolts and follow directions from this video...skill???

  • @95fordxxx88chevy im a mechanic and brother trust me it takes hella skill....alot of the stuff they do couldve taken them hours..they jus didnt show it

  • What a dad building 383 storker for this daughter.

  • My God, It's a beast.

    You are so good.

  • Thank you for teach us how to build an engine specially 350 . I will start to rebuild my car tahoe sport 1997 soon

  • these videos really helped a lot thanks.. good job..

  • Excellent, thanks for sharing.

  • wow that was a great engine rebuild series of videos. im sure its the best one ive seen on youtube. you guys explain it step by step in great detail :)

    if i wanted to rebuild an engine like that how much would that run me for parts?

    thank you for this video and i hope you keep em coming!

    pls respond and help me, or if any of you that read this think you might know how much it would cost me,i would be thankful for the info :)

  • thanks :)

  • good job guys

  • Good stuff

    

  • great videos ! thanks

  • i learned alot thanks (shon)

  • great videos guy i watched all of them but i am concerned with some of the steps.. no ring gap checking no sealer on head bolts. did not show priming of the engine. little things like these will cause watchers to really mess up on there builds. and those were hyperutectic pistons which call for special ring gaps..

  • Yo thanks a lot for these videos, im going to do the same soon on my VW, these videos really help thanks again!

  • Thanks a lot for putting this very informative video online! It has been a serious help for me as I'm considering a stock rebuild.

  • I thought you had to break in the new cam, holding the engine at 2,000rpm for 20 minutes, or above 1,500rpm. That's what i did to mine, i built my 383 last year and im 17 now. I done a lot of reading and so skillz from vo tech. That's just a cerious question. Thank you

  • @xTr1cK5T3Rx you knoy have to do the break in on flat tappet camshafts, this is a roller cam.

  • Thanks!

  • Excellent videos, I really enjoyed watching them, got any rebuilding tips for my 56 265ci ?

  • Great videos! Nice job! Thanks for sharing!

  • What about breaking the new parts in? Is there a certain way to drive for the first 20 miles or so to get the piston rings seated correctly?

  • Hi I'm from Mexico my name is David and I had 16 years old. I have a ford tempo and actually I'm rebuilding the engine. I take out all the pistons and evretinhg

  • that was a very helpful series but what was the total cost for all the parts?

  • cant wait till i can do this. i have a 4.3 262

  • Thanks guys for the video.

  • niceee

  • so your shop does engine rebuilds????, ok how much would u charge if i took my truck to you and had u do a complete engine rebuild on my stock 350 vortex????

  • what year is that truck?

  • 0:48 was a necessity after watching the whole rebuild series

  • @eddimull Oh, yeah, thanks for the great series!

  • great post. my son and me are going to rebuild a stock 350. no major upgrades.

    .

  • Now is that 340hp at the wheels?? Or crank?? I'm guessing the crank... Still a stout build but ya gotta put that power to the ground...New video... how to rebuild an auto trans!! lol haha nice video

  • 340hp and 460 tq. is great out of just a stroker and stock heads and cam. me personally i'd do a retune and get the 400 hp and 500 tq. awesome videos guys, i love how the internal combustion engine works and i REALLY enjoy watching engine building videos.

  • can you do a engine rebuild on a 401 nail head

  • really good vid...... I have a Q? when u started the engine, was it already ran at 2000rpm for 20 minutes or doesnt that apply to the chevy? I have a buick Riviera 63, 401 I am rebuilding does all the info apply the same since its a GM

  • Love the great videography! Lots of good close-up viewing definitely helps to better understand what's going on.

  • looooooool

  • 400 HP at the crank what is it at the wheels??
