@jdmk20guy the example engines in the ‘Basic Engine Building’ DVD are mostly V8s, but you can absolutely use the DVD to help you work on any other type of gasoline/piston engine. People use the ‘BEB’ DVD for 4 cylinder, 6cylinder and many other types of engines all the time.
All of the procedures and tools are the same for each individual piston, the total number of pistons won’t change how you remove and install them…

thank you i will try that

since your engine is a line four and you were able to remove the crank already, how about supporting the block on the ground and trying to beat the pisons down into the block and pull them from the oil pan side of the block instead of from the cylinder head side…?
You will completely destroy the pistons and the block will need to be bored for sure, but you may get them out by trying to beat them out backwards since you’ve got the crank out of the way…

Yes the DVD shows the entire plastigauge process for the crank main journals and rod journals as well as ring gap filing and positions during piston install.
The machine shop section shows the machinists using the dial bore gauge and other instruments. We don’t cover the use of a dial indicator specifically in the ‘Basic Engine Building’ DVD as it is part of an “advanced” engine builders tool set.
The ‘BEB’ DVD will absolutely guide anyone through a complete rebuild using a base tool kit…

Does the DVD(s) show how to properly use a plastigage, other tools such as dial guages and show how piston rings are positioned and gapped?

yes!! electrical engines give 100% all the time……instead mechanical raice to 100% depending on the RPM
but still, for now mechanical are better…

electric car require hours of charging and a ton of batteries. the tesla roadster has 1000 pounds of lithium batteries which is a lot heavier then the small lotus engine it replaced in that frame. so electric cars are expensive, heavy, take a long time to recharge and have poor high end preference. and turbine cars are no better, turbine engines are really expensive, high maintenance and suffer from turbo lag which is when you rev up the engine it takes time to raise compression

one really great thing about electric motor is the instant low end torque you get out of them.

So why are you watching this video?
#17 Comment vom 15. June 2010 um 2:06 pm
hey u know mechanical engines are very cheap if u compare to electrical engines, i mean car engines……
and also to produce the same reliability mechanical engines have will take many years to improve in other types of engines…..

We don’t offer our DVDs on eBay or auction sites because we make combos of various useful DVDs at our site. That way, people can get a customized set of DVDs that match their engine and transmission.
The ‘Basic Engine Building’ and ‘Holley Tuning’ DVDs are already a great price for the amount of content on the discs. The full DVDs are 3 1/2 hours and 2 1/2 hours respectably of incredibly high quality visuals and instructions. They are awesome videos that we’re very proud of…

There is no such thing as a “quick” way to do this without risking damage to the cylinder walls.
You also need to consider that we are showing a lot of potentially inexperienced people how to do something for the first time. Short-cuts are not the best thing to teach in many situations.
The method shown here is the “right” way to do the task…doesn’t matter how long it takes.
Any other technique, or leaving out the protective rod bolt covers just leaves your cylinders at risk of scratches
#22 Comment vom 15. June 2010 um 3:45 pm
they really do useless things to take the pistons out,,,sure this is the safe way but not the quick one
#23 Comment vom 15. June 2010 um 3:46 pm
Check out the video response from us to this video…
The pistons seen here that have the rust all over the top are out of a 351 Windsor engine that was in a boat. The block was cooled by sea water intake instead of coolant and anti-freeze.
The video response above says the rest… actually some funny stuff to watch.
#24 Comment vom 15. June 2010 um 4:27 pm
these are the best engine videos i’ve watched !!! 10XXX a lot ! btw WTF has this engine been through ??? the pistos have almost become a part of the block…
