Pat is probably my favorite guy on this show ever. Not just for his tech,and ability. But also his ability to get an engine to fire on first try. Plus all those pens he has, is cool..lol
I know it’s for TV but when you weld without gloves, with a polyester shirt, without treated cotton coveralls or PPE it sets a bad example and looks really amateur. I’m an industrial tradesman and no one welds anything that way.
totally agree mate , ive fitted many air intake systems with ridiculous hp claims and gained nothing on the dyno, often losing power because the intake has mucked up the maf calibration and ignition timing gets lowered
Some intakes do make a difference. It's all about what the car is stock. Sometimes an intake can be the biggest restriction or the smallest. Air box swaps are the easiest but in reality its actually the heads that are the most restrictive.
A little noise is nuthing compared to when I hade a valve head break off at 7200rpm it was inbeded in the forged piston which was sideways in the block where the cylinder used to be when I beat it out the piston was mangled but not broke anywhere tough shit I'll go forged!!!!!
And 4032 pistons will take a lot more then people say. My SRP forged 212136 pistons are rated to 12lbs of boost safely you dont need hard core pistons in a street car.
@@elonmust7470 4032 vs 2618 . some people call 4032 glass pistons. I have beat the hell out of 4032 forged pistons and they have held up. And $600 to $700.00 for a set of forged pistons is not cheap as cast ones at all. SRP 468 bbc off the shelf 4032 forged pistons $656.00 a set. Cast pistons from say Engine Tech $160.00 a set.
In addition, I'm not sure if OEM forged pistons are 2618 or 4032, but I would imagine that 4032 would be used in OEM high boost engines. The Mitsubishi Evo has 18 PSI or more of boost pressure without a problem.
No welding gloves.. I like it. I think I had been welding about two years before I realised I could wear gloves, but on quick stuff they're hardly worth the trouble.
asambi69 whoever told you that is wrong and shouldn’t be building motors lol. I’ve ran forged and I’ve also ran the cheapest pistons I can find. It none have ever heard like a diesel. If they do it’s probably because there’s not enough clearance and the valves are hitting the pistons.
asambi69 if you honestly think that because someone told you that, then you need to get the word "Sucker" tattooed on your forehead, because they'd told you a load of BS What would definitely make your ride sound like a diesel engine is running it with really low oil
..i'd keep the crank handle, because every time you wanna Rotate the Engine, you go get the Drill..plus, it looked Smoother in Operation..that Drill was Jerking like crazy.. ..also, why you dirtying your Solvent with Old Piston gunk..chances are you gotta Bore It, so chuck All That & go in with a Totally New Rotating assembly..crank too, because the Machine Shop will cost you more than buying All New Stuff..plus, you got All New Stuff..
Seeking TKO Plastic Pistons??? WTF I've never heard of any internal engine parts being made of Plastic for anything that has an internal combustion engine, especially Pistons Even if someone did make Plastic Pistons, I wouldn't trust them
@@karlsmith2570 your most likely right but i know they use Teflon to reduce piston skirt friction if i remember correctly, Teflon is a plastic in one way or another and the space shuttle tiles are made of a composit that could be plastic impregnated woth a fire retardant, just guessing on that but it seems legit
SGT Nick H.. Knew that was coming! Lol. Kind of surprised the “can’t believe you’d use solvent that’s harmful to the environment” comment hasn’t come out yet. Not saying you, but thats one of the other ridiculous comments usually come out with these types of videos.
Brake cleaner is bleach and solvent, carb cleaner is Acetone and toluene, Acetone is Paint thinner as they all are. Safetyclean is mineral spirits - paint thinner, Ultrasound is really good -laundry detergent and water. All you need is Oven cleaner for engine casting that have heavy buildup ,then Mineral spirits, lastly Acetone is reserved for removing varnish in fuel system parts. All this stuff requires Safety equipment and Adequate ventilation which is outdoors. It is all bad for the nervous system , liver, skin . eyes, and everything else. Causes cancer in California for sure.
Buy a stock LS engine, open the rings, slap a turbo on it and make 600+ HP all day on stock pistons. Or if your Matt Happel make over 1000hp to the tire with some pressure and nawzz
Some companies blast the engine part with heated air, then they blast them with beads. Here is an example: th-cam.com/video/paUTGRdctpE/w-d-xo.html I have never seen or heard of a data tower of a dyno. I'm impressed with how much information the dyno tower can handle.
I avoid giving ‘thumbs down’, so consider yourself special. This is a superficial treatment of an important subject. Avoid Grade 5 bolts? Bwahaha! Ignorance.
Ausblack just saying I don’t think tapping on a cylinder head with a rubber mallet is going to damage it. If so I wouldn’t want to be anywhere near it when it’s running
@@jamesschoonmaker3579 needless caution! An extreme example would be a 1000Hp 6 cylinder turbocharged engine at will see 8000kg impacts 15 times a second at full noise. And a rubber hammer is going to make a single difference?
@@chrisnas1483 do it man. They will help with housing I think. Just pay attention to Judd, study and practice on those machines there as much as you can and show them you are a hard worker. They will help pave a way for you.

PowerNation Thank you guys very much for making a this video. I really enjoyed it
Same here loving the content!!!!
"This machine is a heavy duty dishwasher." -Pulls out tray that is held in place by zip ties.

He cleans like I did as a kid...bare hands soaked in paint thinner...now I have Leukemia.
Or just really tore up hands. Go check out SCox's vid on it
No you don't
That Black and Red Matco Tool Box in the shop looks Awesome!
Good job guys! Thank you for the information as always.
By far then best channel on youtube!
I know it’s for TV but when you weld without gloves, with a polyester shirt, without treated cotton coveralls or PPE it sets a bad example and looks really amateur. I’m an industrial tradesman and no one welds anything that way.
If you go cast , you come in LAST !😂
Excellent Episode!
I miss the days when my dad made me turn off Modern Warfare 3 on my PS3 so he could watch this show with me on tv
Good to know these things thanks alot.
Weld a 1/2 drive socket onto that crank handle and will be so much happier.
17:00 create a problem that doesn’t exist. Then offer a solution to the fake problem. The stock air box is not restricting hp.
These folks do that all the time so they can sell stuff.
totally agree mate , ive fitted many air intake systems with ridiculous hp claims and gained nothing on the dyno, often losing power because the intake has mucked up the maf calibration and ignition timing gets lowered
@@elonmust7470 I'm going to called them on this bs every time.

@@edwardmyers1746 Heads are not the restriction either. Where did you hear that from? You have to change the cam if you want more hp.
I wonder if that dude could fit any more pens in his shirt pocket. 😆😆😆
Puts 4.56 gears in engine stand😂😹
Good episode!!!!!

I will tell you what all of this requires...$$$
thought for sure they would tig a nut on that engine stand to use the same size as the bolts that mount engine instead of just using the chuck
Exactly what I would do.
@@crazyeyez1502 Considering the zips on the part washer aren't even clipped, what do you expect.
And 4032 pistons will take a lot more then people say. My SRP forged 212136 pistons are rated to 12lbs of boost safely you dont need hard core pistons in a street car.
What are "hard core" pistons? Forged pistons aren't much more expensive than cast jobs in most cases...

So this heat.. how do i protect myself from the last part...?

😂
I've always tried to stay away from Forged pistons as i've heard they can make your engine sound like a diesel.

I hope you're joking.
@Joshua Webb considering that he said that the 2015 mustang was "brand new", that should've been a hint...
Who ever heard a knocking sound from forged, well it was somthing other than them pistons 😂
how many pens does a guy need ?
if you use coupons you can get all those tools for 85,000$! you save 125$ on the engine stand alone.
..i'd keep the crank handle, because every time you wanna Rotate the Engine, you go get the Drill..plus, it looked Smoother in Operation..that Drill was Jerking like crazy..
..also, why you dirtying your Solvent with Old Piston gunk..chances are you gotta Bore It, so chuck All That & go in with a Totally New Rotating assembly..crank too, because the Machine Shop will cost you more than buying All New Stuff..plus, you got All New Stuff..
agreed
Vh45 or 2jz build ? 👀☝️
Starting my VH45 tare down this week!
@@StabyMcStabsFace tell me how it goes ! I'm wanting to build mine
Hi
Can I get the dyno system dialogues
Do manufactures make plastic pistons or is it basically aluminum?, kinda crazed question but there's stuff going on out there we know not about.
Seeking TKO Plastic Pistons??? WTF
I've never heard of any internal engine parts being made of Plastic for anything that has an internal combustion engine, especially Pistons
Even if someone did make Plastic Pistons, I wouldn't trust them
@@karlsmith2570 how about plastic connecting rods or better yet a plastic cranker OO
@@karlsmith2570 Briggs and Stratton uses a plastic gear and lobes on their camshafts.
@@karlsmith2570 your most likely right but i know they use Teflon to reduce piston skirt friction if i remember correctly, Teflon is a plastic in one way or another and the space shuttle tiles are made of a composit that could be plastic impregnated woth a fire retardant, just guessing on that but it seems legit
No.... since when could plastic withstand the direct and extreme heat/compression of an explosion....
Why settle for the battery drill to rotate the stand when you can have a small block Chevy motor rotate it. More power hu hu hu.
Where’s his GLOVES at when he was welding
No gloves for the solvent tank, either
SGT Nick H.. Knew that was coming! Lol. Kind of surprised the “can’t believe you’d use solvent that’s harmful to the environment” comment hasn’t come out yet. Not saying you, but thats one of the other ridiculous comments usually come out with these types of videos.
Only pussies where gloves
@@blackice214 I've never seen a cat with gloves on
I've seen one wear some boots before!!!!
REMEMBER.... NO TALKING IN CLASSS

Just use brake clean to clean parts.
You welcome everyone
Clearly Amish Mike needs a hub dyno to complete the set
Buy a stock LS engine, open the rings, slap a turbo on it and make 600+ HP all day on stock pistons. Or if your Matt Happel make over 1000hp to the tire with some pressure and nawzz
Blows up in 10k miles

dam i think u need another pen in ur shirt pocket man :p

DO NOT BANG ON YOUR PISTONS, EVEN IF YOU USE A RUBBER HANDLE OR RUBBER MALLOT.
Calm down turbo
What do you think happens in an engine?

Ausblack we are agreeing with each other. It won’t make a difference
Rating piston composition by horsepower is about the most ridiculous idea this show has ever came up with...... about.
I want to be taught by horsepower tv, not Lincoln tec..
Go to Samracing. That's where pat taught and where I learned too
