That was an amazing video. I love how you show the entire process: not skipping over valuable parts. I remember the first time I was putting a piston in and I hammered it as hard as you would to hammer a wheel stud out of a huge diesel truck, and afterwards, the piston was in, but the crank was totaled: $900. Dad was so pissed off

Also: ring gap is dependent on your usage. The one mentioned in this build seems to be a common NA engine type. A Nitrous or boosted engine with 18 Lb boost will call for .007" per inch of bore diameter. When grinding rings, only grind one side of the ring. That way you can easily keep the ends parallel and the gap even. (As an experiment: Grind two ends at the same time and compare by squeezing the ring together. The outside corner touches and the inner corner has a gap.) Lastly: When preparing your block: Very gently debur and round off the top edge of all cylinders. That way it is less likely to catch and break a ring during piston install. Good video!

Thanks Pete. I have a 383 stroker engine that I had fully built in 2008. After putting it in my 1966 Chevelle, I moved away for college. I only drove the car a few times (less than 500 miles), but when I did drive it, I drove it hard. I was young and reckless. I am now 30 and got the car out of my moms garage in Illinois and into my garage in PA. After doing some assessment, I found 4 broken pistons caused by what I would assume to be detonation. Like I said, I drove the car hard and not very often. These videos of yours are going to help me tremendously when it comes to fixing my engine. I know it would be best to have a pro do this, but TBH, no man should ever let another man touch his car without him present haha. And how the hell am I going to evolve as a Car Guy if my "work" is just opening of the bill fold? Thank you for being a resource for myself and so many others!

Just want to say I love your videos but the clicking the torque wrench twice is a good thing. I'm an engine and prop mechanic on C-130s and the reason you do this is because first off, there is oil in the torque wrench that causes deviation and that second click ensures the oil is moved inside the torque wrench. Second, all metal stretches. It's small but in my field absolutely measurable when you're applying 400 ft lbs to a mount bolt or Sweeny wrench. On the Sweeny you can see with the protractor on it the excess movement better first and second click. Obviously it's more noticable if you further bump the prop back and forth a little while torquing. I know this is only 40 ft lbs but I promise you aren't wearing out your torque wrench by done clicking. But otherwise, thank you for the vids!

I had a 3.9 magnum in an old Dakota. The damn thing was nearly indestructible. But if you have a Dodge truck I think I'd skip the 3.9 rebuild and just do a 318 (5.2) or 360 (5.9) swap. All three are nearly indestructible but the 318 is my favorite. With the right top end those things will love to rev and make some power.

I always dunk the piston(s) into a can of oil immediately before installation into the cylinder(s). After tightening the rod bolts/nuts, I wipe the top(s) of the piston(s) off in order to avoid having a lot of oil in the combustion chamber(s). In this way, there is plenty of lubrication available upon startup and very little piston/bore wear.

Great video, good info and interesting to watch. Thanks for a lot of the good tips, my only 2 cents are, yes "clicking" the torque wrench multiple times may move it out of accuracy faster, however if fasteners still move when you click it the second or third time then it is indeed torquing it even finer and closer to the mark. A lot of the machinery manuals I use at work specifically tell you to do this. First click is within manufacturers tolerance for the torque wrench (assuming it's been calibrated), sometimes that is pretty damn close to the money and it wont move after that on the same setting, other times it's 3-6 percent off on the initial click and will need additional clicks if you want the actual torque closer to what the wrench is set and calibrated to. Keep up the awesome videos though

You say in the video that this isn't going to be a very big build, but I notice the Eagle rods, which are good for 600 HP. That would be a lot for a street engine. So what are the goals of this build? Thanks and I will be checking out your other videos.

Hi Pete, So a question for myself, i purchased a set of eagle H beam rods for my sr20, standard sizing same with bearings, would you recommend i check anyway? They are to be installed on a factory crank, no machining. Also, I have CP pistons, niether the pistons or the rods show any specific orientatioin, other than underside of the pistons have CP and serial and rods Have eagle ink stamp on one side and serial number on the other. Thanks Pete

@@spiriteddiscoveries3903 If they are Eagles and you place on a Sunnen Rod clearance tool you will soon find out why you don't want Chinese rods. I learned the hard way too. They will be egg shaped once torqued to proper specifications. The BE on a good rod (Carrillo) should hold true to plus or minus 0.0002" after proper torque is applied. You will be lucky to hold 0.001" on an Eagle rod.

Great video man but instead of checking the gap rings at the very top of the bore...it’s best to push the ring down atleast quarter the way if not half way down to check ring gap

Very informative , I've always used .004 to cylinder bore D` ....never a problem .... Never heard of .0035 when did this happen ?? LOL

It happened when some manufacturers developed products they wanted to consider special or custom.

@@PetesGarage I used to use 1 thou per 1 inch of cylinder circumference which is pi x D. But also depends on ring material and heat load from power adders like: turbo, nitrous etc. Thanks! - Sandy

Awesome video, I’m following along with my 383 build, first build for me. I had a question, what ring gap would you recommend for a 383? naturally aspirated no more than 500 hp. My feeler gauge says I’m at .016 for 1st and 2nd. I see lots of different answers, but I really like your videos.
