Half the cylinders, half the work? If only! The flathead four-cylinder engine in our “Swap to Street” 1930 Ford Model A was leaking oil like crazy and wasn’t running particularly well, either. That made it a perfect subject for our popular Redline Rebuild time-lapse video series. What took us months of long days in the shop is distilled down to a high-paced video that captures EVERY part of the rebuild process.

Videos involving engines like this only makes me wonder why we ever thought "more complicated is better." At times we all enjoy the related benefits of todays technology, but videos like this also make it clear that ignoring the "simple tech" of the past and relegating it to the shelf in favor of "advancement" isn't always wise.

@EagleBeagle4886 3 месяца назад

Tetraethyllead was a lead based gasoline additive used by older engines to reduce/prevent engine knock. As you can imagine this was not good for humans or the environment. "In the mid-20th century, scientists discovered TEL caused lead poisoning and was toxic to the human brain, especially in children.[5] The United States and many other countries began phasing out the use of TEL in automotive fuel in the 1970s." That is one example. As technology advances, it becomes more complicated. Many of us can start a camp fire on our own, no one can build a computer "on our own.". The OBD II system and catalytic system are other automotive examples of excellent advancements in automotive technology that have greatly benefited the United States.

@@Brian13356 if you’re talking about the big slotted rectangle on top of the exhaust manifold, I believe it was to assist in cooling, a heat sink of sorts. These motors didn’t have a water pump, they relied on hydrodynamics to circulate water through the engine, and I’m sure that wasn’t sufficient enough, so I believe that is just to aid in cooling the engine.

@trexmidnite 3 года назад

The intake/exhaust are coupled to keep the intake hot for better fuel air mix, the finned rectangular piece is to keep the exhaust not going seriously hot

@BriscoMedia 3 года назад

@@sundstrom193 You're actually quite wrong. These engines had a water pump that bolted to the head. The finned piece on the exhaust header is a dealer option. You ran that header with a special shroud, and could have a heater in these cars.

Is that what the lead was for? I have very little knowledge of the flathead style engines... I'm used to conventional bearing engines.

@6h471 4 года назад

@@jamesburris4078 Babbitt used in an engine bearing contains little if any lead. There are Babbitt alloys that do contain lead, but those are only used for very low speed industrial bearings, not engines. Modern insert bearings also have a Babbitt lining.

@ibast1 4 года назад

Still used in really big bearings. Most power stations run them in their turbine/generator train. But yes I'm a bit suprised there are an engine recco shops out there still doing it.

Not really, his way was of efficient production with the lowest cost possible. When their cars ended up in junkyards they would get them back inspect all of it and cut back on what was lasting longer than what people kept them for to lower Manufacturing cost.

@foxytv1592 5 лет назад

@@bryanmartinez6600 I'm talking more in the context of total precision. And frankly it's more because of car design where the chassis of the vehicle is made from alternate materials instead of iron and steel which significantly decreases the need for excess metal which was earlier needed to strengthen the vehicle. No it was more in the model Ts design which had excess metal which was recycled. The difference I was talking about was how we can make almost 30 times more power from a 4 cyl of the same displacement just because of the quality of the tools and workforce.
