 Hello boys and girls in today's video. We finish cleaning the heads and Lap the valves Enjoy Guys, so you saw me clean the heads lap the heads clean the block It's a lot of clean clean clean We clean the valves Now what I did was I know some of you may maybe against it Or simply may not know but I know I understand you got to be very careful doing any of this what I just did You know especially cleaning the valves now I used this steel wire wheel and this brass wire wheel Now I didn't I the intake ones the bigger ones. I only cleaned the faces of it, okay? Did not even lap Where they meet with the head, but the exhaust ones I use the steel to clean the top and Then the brass to clean The underneath here But what you got to be careful about is This area from here to here where it where this travels inside the head Inside the valve seals a little scratch here. This works like your lifters or your even your piston inside cylinder walls The these wheels wear out So you got to be careful Not to damage this area same thing when you lap it you want to make sure this is clean The inside of the head is clean when you put it back in It to spin it You know with the suction cup wipe it off if it's If it seems like it's not going in or something is in the way take it off. Don't push it It's it should almost drop on its own make sure your oil this lubricated with WD-40 or oil whatever oil is cheaper, you know When you when you before you turn it okay, it's got to go in easy. See I didn't lap The intake ones only the exhaust they came out pretty good This Was very minor. This was like kind of a refresh Okay, if this was in any worst state, then I would just give it to a shop for them to relap it and Lash it or relash it whatever readjust it That's why that's why I measure the lash before I even took them out Some of them are a bit too loose by a thousand Maybe thousand and a half I'm gonna check them again once after the lapping that I just did so they're going to the shop for decking anyways and cleaning What I wonder if you do these areas here still our TV goes back on here So they just all these got was just a light very light 2000 cent paper you got to remember you're gonna go off take off any really any material I just want to clean it off Because the cams spin here if you take any material off then these will become little you know slightly Eggie shaped instead of round When when they go back in same thing when you're cleaning inside here. You saw me clean the passages the runners With a steel brush careful not to hit the seat the valve seat or when you Same thing when you push when you put these back they don't go just almost just drop in there is dirt here they turn The lifters they turn inside here. That's got to be super clean also clean where the intake manifold goes This I had a kind of a hard time scraping off the old gasket with a Razor blade you go on whenever you're gonna use a razor blade Careful a lot of people say don't use a razor razor blade, but if you know what you're doing You know use it as you can see I didn't scratch The surface at all if you're careful you can do anything Same thing with the exhaust side also cleaned up the Thermostat housing and I made a mistake. This is actually not my block. I took these guide pins out For no reason I will really I just wanted to Lightly clean this these surfaces here So same thing with these surfaces here where the two blocks come together You only want to clean this area. You don't want to take any material off Because same story like with the camshafts these Where the crankshaft drops in They need to stay around if you take any material off These will become an X shaped instead of a circle so these pins took them off thinking I'm gonna Just buy new ones and put them in put them back in right well I first of all I destroyed them Taking them off. They just didn't want to because they were rusted inside and had dirt here And then you know all around and inside especially inside. I thought I'll just get new ones Just for the sake of it Well, they're not available. They only come with the block. So I call the dealer. I take them off, right? I call the dealer this guy It's it turned out that he didn't know what I was talking about. I was Pretty clear on it what I need. You know the two guide pins For the blocks to come together. You know when you split the block You got those two dowel pins or guide pins. That's what I need. Yeah I said, yeah, I got them, you know, three days. It'll be here, you know, two bucks each or whatever, right? You know cool, whatever So I go there after the three days. I Also ordered some other stuff He ordered me the pins that go from the block to the transmission I'm like, you know really dude So we're looking we're going through the pictures with the parts guy Can't can't seem to even find the part number for those pins and I go over to this mechanic which was standing close by to us and You know wave him over a man. Can you help us out? Can you let this parts guy know? You know what I'm talking about because he doesn't know so the three of us are looking at the Pictures here and you know, it turns out they're not available and this mechanic guy. He's like, hey, you know, we got a block Sitting here. We just took it out. This guy had a rod knock in an 08 08 WRX If you can split the block here and you take the pins, you know, you're you're welcome to I'm like, yeah, man If you let me borrow your tools, I'll do it, you know, and then the parts guy Chimes in and he says you got to make sure John is okay with it. So the mechanic left five minutes Comes back. He's like, you know, John's okay with it. Whoever John, maybe So I'm like cool, man, let me pay for this and I'll be there. You know, I'll use your tools And I'll just, you know, take the pins. He's like, no, just take the whole thing Like really I can take the whole block. So this was a complete block, but no, it was shut They had a rod knock number four, I believe and The crank a beautiful crank destroy well not destroy I can still use it but starting from about mid of 08 Subaru started making nitrated hardened crankshafts and that's what What this blackhead inside but since it had a rod knock, you know, where the rat sits on the crank That the only that one was destroyed. I'm not sure what to call that. You know rounded area where the Rad sits as the crank turns that was destroyed Everything else was like almost like new or you just need it polishing after over a hundred thousand miles I can still use the crank in the future if I You know take some material off, but that will take the hardened material off. It will become like my crankshaft right now, you know minus Is all it needs is polishing but the nitrated would be a nice Upgrade as well for durability the hardened Metal would be nice. So anyways I'm taking that new new old from the WRX black with the pins back to the machine shop the heads also a new flywheel the the factory pulley and The factory rods. I'm keeping the rods They are forged after all they can take For for up to maybe 450 horsepower to the wheels. All that is gonna get Balanced the black is gonna get checked and cleaned the heads are gonna get checked decked and cleaned and Yep, that is it for now. Here. This is your bumper bumper beam here had a little bit of rust here Cleaned it off painted it took the AC system off As you can see the condenser is gone The lines AC lines are gone. All that's left is The expansion valve That's gonna stay. I'm gonna block it somewhat. I Filed down whatever I destroyed Taking the engine off Remember it was stuck on this pin here. I'm gonna put anti-seize Unhear So this is this is ready to go All right guys, that is it for now Not sure what's next. I'll just wait till everything comes back from the shop From the machine shop more repair videos soon to come Thanks for watching and I'll see you soon
