Welcome back to the channel, we are onto Part 3 of our Sixty engine disassembly where we get the heads removed. There is nothing light about the heads on a Sixty...let me tell you! Anyway as you'll see when you watch, I am still fighting with lots of rust. The push rods and rocker shafts were completely seized. Just wait until you see the tops of the pistons.....
Enjoy part 3 folks, if you are enjoying the project so far dont forget to hit the like button and subscribe to the channel so that you know when the next part comes out. Thanks for watching!!!

I'm glad it appears that the heads are in good shape! 🙂👍 Happy to see you're making progress Nathan! Stay safe and happy wrenching 🔧

@ironman3406 Год назад

Hey Zane, heads are probably all that’s in good shape lol 😂- onward and upwards we will get it back to operating condition. Have a great day, stay safe and get out and work on something eh 😄👌👍 thanks for watching

@djdyke47 Год назад

Between you and Squatch253 make me wanna go find a dead Cat to play with.

@ironman3406 Год назад

Dean, thanks for watching. I strongly recommend it, they are lots of fun to work on. lots of small ones out there that are easy to work on in the garage and haul with a half ton.

@mattthescrapwhisperer Год назад

I can almost hear that old engine sigh a great big Thank You! Really enjoyed the simple consistency of the disassembly; mostly done with an 11/16" open end/boxed end wrench! Thanks for bringing us along Nathan.

@ironman3406 Год назад

Hey Matt - I’m sure it’ll be even happier once it’s running again :) thanks for watching sir

@oldamericaniron5767 Год назад

On mine that broken flat strap on the head bolt was a support to top of the radiator. I wouldn’t call them big ugly heads but big beautiful heads. I’m sure you meant decompression valves. I know I’m going to enjoy this series, I hope you don’t get tired of me commenting.

@ironman3406 Год назад

Thanks for the note about the strap to the rad! Yes I meant decompression, what did I say? Please comment away, thanks for watching

@johnberndsen5614 Год назад

Hi Nathan. keep up the good work. FYI compression release valves, not precombustion valves. LOL

@ironman3406 Год назад

Hey John!! Thanks for watching - I wonder how many others are going to catch my good about those valves haha 😂

@paulsilva3346 Год назад

Nathan I was hoping to hear at least that you be cleaning out the Piston bores adding some oil or some evap o rust to those big jugs, for a good soaking. I enjoyed the short video as always. Thanks for sharing. And I envy you that you have your father, be grateful...

@ironman3406 Год назад

Hey Paul - more videos to come with soaking of pistons lol - thanks for watching good sir, and I am great full for every second that I get to spend with my grandfather.

I suspect that might have been the first time pneumatic tools were used on that old Cat.

@ironman3406 Год назад

There’s a very high chance that you are correct haha - thanks for watching, hope you’ll keep following along with the project.

The chrome socket on an impact is approved. I do it all the time!

@ironman3406 Год назад

I typically don’t - but all my tools are at home and grandpa don’t own impact sockets - thanks for watching bud

@@ironman3406 you’re welcome! Really like this series, keep up the great work.

@refiii9499 Год назад

Loving these videos! Love seeing the old iron coming back to life. If one thing I could say is to please invest into a tripod or something and stop from flying with the camera from one spot to the next. It kinda gets people nauseous. Lol it’s my only thing I can help with to improve on the video side of your channel lol. Keep up the awesomeness you bring.

@ironman3406 Год назад

Thanks for watching - I do use a magnetic tripod most of the time, but when you have to show wider angles and stuff its easier to just put it in my hand. I am still learning so it can only get better.

@4051a Год назад

Good video Nathan, but it sounds like your camera in inside of a 55 gallon drum.

@ironman3406 Год назад

Yah - I installed a new mic when I filmed this and didnt know it sounded this way until it was too late. The next 4 videos will unfortunately be the same since they were all filmed at the same time and ive just broke them into separate videos, im sorry but there is nothing I can change for the next 4 videos until I shoot more footage. Ill try something different then. Thanks for watching

@troyduncan7257 Год назад

Keep at it Nathan and I’ll continue watching. I know for sure know that the mechanical gene skips a generation, lol.

@ironman3406 Год назад

If I hope anyone keeps watching it’s at least you dad lol - thanks!!! It no big deal if it skipped a generation, your still into the antique stuff 😎

Don't look as bad as it could !!!!! Might be able to clean them up and soak them for a while 🤔🤔🤔🤔😊 And get it un stuck 👍👍👍👍👍😊😊 the heads Don't look bad either!!! The wind is just howling here today 😳 🥶

@ironman3406 Год назад

Hey there Evan, we're going to try everything that we can to free them up. Stay tuned lots more to come! Thanks for watching, very cold here today too, but I think winter is officially setting in so its expected.

@evankibbe590 Год назад

@@ironman3406 looking forward to it!!! Supposed to be 50 degrees Friday 😒

@plumbum48 Год назад

Really enjoy the content but audio would benefit from a different pickup ad there is a continuous “hollow barrel” echo.

@ironman3406 Год назад

Yes, there have been others saying the same thing. You are going to have to sit through it for the next 4 videos since they were all filmed at the same time with a new mic, when I film the next batch ill try to do something different again. Thanks for watching

@shaneharrison4775 Год назад

Man those heads looked heavy enough and the jugs are pretty rusty too how much of that is sugar rust and how much is pitting rust? Either way that looks to be a whole piston and jug removal perhaps soaking it down with diesel additive will help break up that rust and free up the pistons and jugs. Awesome video

@ironman3406 Год назад

Hello Shane thanks for watching - yes they were heavy! And you are correct they have to come out in a single rusted together unit. We had em soaking but hadn’t helped yet.

@shaneharrison4775 Год назад

@@ironman3406 yep they looked like candidates for total emersion

@butchhull2890 Год назад

We have all seen worse Nathan she will clean up just fine and hey is that one of those famous Rocanville oil cans it looks damn familiar

@ironman3406 Год назад

Hi Butch, thanks for watching! It is in fact a Rocanville oil can, good eye sir.

@raycollington4310 Год назад

Thanks Nathan. What bolt thread is used on an engine of this era please.

@ironman3406 Год назад

Hi Ray, so far it mostly been NCT on the exterior stuff, rod caps are NFT. Thanks for watching

@oldamericaniron5767 Год назад

Mine had 2 pushrods rusted so tight I head I had to remove head with them stuck in head and put it on the press to get them out. Mine didn’t have headbolt washers. Are your’s 6 1/2 or 6 3/4 bore? I had to pull cylinders and piston/rod assemblies together, very heavy.

@ironman3406 Год назад

I didn’t think those washers were right, this one is 6.5” bore our other one is 6.75” bore. Thanks again!!

@mnmike130 Год назад

What was your objection to penetratingly oil?

@ironman3406 Год назад

Just an ongoing joke with a friend of mine here on RU-vid. Thanks for watching!!

@ItZLukeOfficial1508 Год назад

Extremely interesting, I love videos like this, 😃😃. But will you please check what’s wrong with the sound, is the camera in a box or something?? Keep up the good work, 💪😎💪

@ironman3406 Год назад

I’ve made note of your audio comments pal - please note that for at least the next 4 videos it’ll be the same since they were all shot at the same time - so i can’t correct anything until it shoot more footage. Thanks for watching

@ItZLukeOfficial1508 Год назад

Thank you, 😃😃. Really enjoy your videos, 😎😎
