@Rinzler787 We removed the intake manifold and under that, there is an aluminum price that distributes coolant that we also removed. We used those bolts front and back which gave us good tilt control coming out. Sounds fun, good luck!

@@phillippardo5712 I had nothing better to do

@@davidtornow3717 Thank you!

Thanks for that statement

Dang, I'm not sure. A Chilton manual or Google could maybe tell you but I'd extract it and with both pieces perhaps you can deduce that.

@bakerRebuilds I been reading up on it's since Saturday and still haven't found it but I might be use another one to find the exact bolt I need

@MirandaGarza-v5b yeah try the others to find a good fit. If you get 3-5 full threads that should work

@@hervelouon5516 Still got the job done just fine

@@LarryStaub Newer videos have better audio ducking.

@@kennethbaigent5367 I can't remove the music from the video. Newer videos have better audio editing.

@NestorJrAlcon The light was a keyed fit and I believe it was vertical like 12-6 o clock positioning.

@jong-wongil5522 Well it hasn't made big trouble, the car is running great still however, your right it calls for 20.8 ft-lbs.

Gee if only I woulda thought of that haha

@@sweetgrowz8843 Sounds like a manufacturing issue. I'd try to get them to replace it for you.

@@cheapshotmike1091 AGREED!

@@snowbunnee1471 TH-cam may need to use a wrench or ratchet and socket to turn that cam to the correct degree and then apply the chain.

*you may lol not TH-cam

@@jessenunez5014 Newer videos have better sound editing! I'll run my channel how I like, thanks.

@@americanoutlaw8902 Newer videos are sound edited considerably better!

@andreray7581 It's called beside me, by Patrick Patrikios. Pulled from TH-cam I believe.

@kyledevore871 I'd do a compression test to gather more info. If it returns poor readings you may need new valves and valve seals which will require the valves being reseated. You could also disassemble to verify. Really depends on skill, money, time etc.

I no longer have the Mini or I would. You can take off the cap and pull the lower radiator hose to drain. I like to fill with water and let the car warm up, then drain again a couple times to thoroughly clean the Coolant system. Once it's clean put lower hose on and make sure clamp is in place. Then refill with appropriate Coolant. Hope this helps!

Oof that's rough. I'd recommend a leak down test, possibly a compression test to gather more info. If you have money to blow you could just get a new engine but it might just need some work. Are you certain you set the timing correctly?

@@bakerRebuilds it was done at a shop and this what they told me

@welcome2darealr229 It's hard to say much without experiencing the vehicle myself. I'd do a compression and a leak down test. When they fixed your heads did they put in new valve seals? Replace all of them or just the ones on the bent valves? Could use a cheap borescope off Amazon to check piston tips and see if they're fine or somewhat deformed on the cylinders that bent valves. Depending on the shop they may have reused the head bolts which are supposed to be replaced each time. Are you getting any smoke out of the exhaust or it's normal?

​@@bakerRebuildsthey only put on a new timing belt because thats all I paid for but they told me I had 3 bent valves that I needed heads or a new motor

@welcome2darealr229 Ah I see, my apologies. I'd get the heads redone, replacing the bent valves and all of the stem seals. Good opportunity to port and polish but not necessary. New head gaskets and replace the bolts. This alone could fix the compression issue but if you still have problems atleast the initial issue is ruled out.

@@JamieSzatkowski It's not something that can be turned on or off

@sirheidelberg9766 Thank you, I appreciate that! I'm not sure, I did some research and it seems that the 06+ models might not even have one.

@@christophercharles7090 Please veiw more than one video, first one at that, before passing judgment on a channel. Have a good day

@bluefeatherlopez7 I don't have access to the Dodge Charger SXT V6 anymore. You'll need a spring compressor so you can remove the retainers and drop the valve out. Replace the seal, then put valve back in and compress the spring once more to replace the retainers. Try not to lose them and be sure to get them back in correctly. Multiple tools are available including vehicle specific and universal ones but if you research other spring compressings options you may have what you need already. You'll need to fully remove the head to do this and it's an opportune time for a port and polish if you so wish. Could also check for any bent valves since they'll all be out, keep them in the same spot. Hope this helps

@@bakerRebuilds I've recently put in gaskets to heads and other components gaskets but didn't use the rtv that came with gaskets". And didn't clean out carbon buildup on top pistons, could I use a degreaser?

@@bluefeatherlopez7 I think I ised a light degreaser, I'd recommend your own research and whatever you feel comfortable with.

@@bakerRebuilds didn't have bent valves, may need new piston rings this engine was ran hard from previous owner. Which he highly didn't speak English. Don't have a engine puller on the plus side I'm in the desert.

@@bluefeatherlopez7 ah dang, that's rough

@@bluefeatherlopez7 Thank you!

@@Brian36685 Very original

@Vynncent Awesome, glad it helped!

A compression loss can indicate that however, it could also be several other things all of which I'm pretty sure require the head to be pulled in order to service. I'd recommend a leak down test and/or possibly using a bore scope to see the pistons tops before tearing anything apart in order to gain more information.

I admit, I don't have a great one. This one is time-lapsed but shows overall process. th-cam.com/video/ZL8WQ-8DVfo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=UbIYrpJ8dSjYEFT_

If you go to my channel, under the community tab I've posted the v6 and v8 torque specs for head replacement. Recommend using new bolts.

@@neilritter8418 No, you do not.

@@bakerRebuilds thank you man. Good video 🤘🏻

@neilritter8418 I appreciate that! Also be sure to torque the water pump bolts properly. Wouldn't want a leak there

@bluefeatherlopez7 The plugs disconnect from the injectors, I don't believe there's an option with a pigtail. You'd have to just replace the plugs if really necessary. Depending in which transmission you have, the 5.7l v8 could fit but that can be a challenging swap.

@szucsszili3690 Good ideas for future videos however, I no longer have the Mini Cooper Clubman.

Turning on CC should help convey the info.

@MikeWolf-427 Unless you do gasket maker, I think it's with the windage tray regardless. I'd recommend upgrading the oil pump and/or at least trying to idle less. The position of the cam in relation to the heads on the gen 3 hemi struggles to properly oil the rollers at idle, which with enough wear leads to the "hemi tick" that's no good.

Thanks! It was purchased from Rockauto.com to save money. Upon arrival and comparison to the old one it certainly seemed atleast OEM quality and fitment was perfect. Holding up great.

Thank you! Depends on overall experience a bit but probably 2-4 hours most people could do it.

@@bakerRebuilds I appreciate the reply. Keep up the great work.

@John_B52_HEMI Thank you! Good luck on the project!

I don't remember specifically but not more than one day.

@@bakerRebuilds i’m having a tick and i’m pretty sure it has something to do with the valves as the rocker arms have already been replaced, if this did take a whole day then is it worth fixing it without having to just replace the motor?

@miguelangelcazales3120 Having the heads redone with new springs, valves, seals and reseating the valves is worth it to me if I can leave the bottom end alone. If you can find a fairly cheap low mileage motor maybe that's worth it to some. Are you sure it's the heads? If I remember right the intake plenum made some ticking noises.

@@bakerRebuildsit’s definelty the drivers side valves, passenger side is nice and quiet

@@miguelangelcazales3120 on that I'd recommend doing both sides anyway if you go in and spend that time.

Thanks for the feedback, newer videos are better produced

We just ordered ones that were a verified fit for the 08 evo through Amazon. I think there's a distinction between whether or not your car has factory HID or not.

Which is why that is not mentioned in this video. We knew we were pulling the motor so that's why it's removed.

Thank you!

I had no issues. No rubbing or scrubbing. Really brought the Mini to full glory in the corners.

Perhaps yours is T50, mine certainly was not.

Assuming the gears are timed correctly and the key hasn't snapped allowing one to freespin, use a wrench on the cam bolt and turn clockwise.

Once it was running we had to sell the v6. Definitely sounds like you need a head gasket. Once the heads are off use a square or a straight edge to make sure the cylinder head and cylinder bore mating surfaces are still flat. I'd buy a gasket kit or the specific gaskets to replace the ones you can. (Intake manifold, injector o-rings, the aluminum peice the coolant hose attaches to, exhaust manifold etc.)

Try to figure out why your engine overheated. It would suck to do all the work and put it in only to have it overheat on you again.

@@bakerRebuilds Ah, too bad you didn't get to keep it. Yup, ordered the head gaskets and will do all other ones, since I am this deep into the engine. Ok, I will get a straight edge to make sure things are level. As to why it overheated or whatever the reason that LKQ had the engine, I don't know. Just trying to make sure I correct all I can before I stick it in and find out I missed something. LOL

@sethdunn96 I know the feeling lol I've also experienced when it goes wrong and has to be pulled out, no fun! No worries, I still have the HEMI that is on the channel.

@@bakerRebuilds well the Hemi is probably the better one anyway. :D
