Mark, thank you, you are teaching us about precision, accuracy, and just master machining and your no nonsense approach is so professional, no fluff, your a expert and a professional, again thank you for teaching us what needs to be done, jon
I just installed a cam that wants .060 clearance to the valve seals but advertised as drop in replacement. I only have .030 and that's why you measure! This is a great video could watch it all day.
I feel I have more engine knowledge than you average Joe having successfully put high compression pistons in my Kawasaki ZRX. Not nearly the same, I know but man, the care and craftsmanship of this guy is off the charts. Ya got that! Great stuff and I am just watching for fun.
cool vids but why trim the liner then go back over it with the posi seal cutter, why not use just the posi / guide cutter and knock them both out at once and save a step?
I find it hilarious that some engine builders can be very picky with tolerances using calipers and bore gauges in some areas and then rely on a god damn bubble level to set other areas as “good enough” . Fucking hack! I wouldn’t let this guy build me a lawn mower engine.
He uses a hack hand drill method (The guide centers are all over when you use a hand drill to bore guides) to locate and install the guides then the machine to trim them? Come on buddy breath deep oxygen is good for you
Tom Hutchins I would trust this guy to build a motor than you I got news for you a little son of a b**** I am a machinist I have 4 bridgeport's what do you have a****** except the mouth you can talk out of or is that your a******
You and deeremeyer1 should move in together and make videos of how awesome your engine building skills are since you obviously want to comment non stop on every video this guys makes. U too probably live in your mommy's basement and talk shit all day on the computer. Grow the fuck up.
