Very professional! In the navy the ships would go through a degaussing range because of magnetic fields but this is the first time that I have seen connecting rods going through the same process. Makes good sense. Glad to see your Dad’s Mountain Dew bottle isn’t half full of used Copenhagen. lol
Your videos and commentary are getting better all the time. I like the short ones AND the longer ones. So interesting to watch. Most engine tear down and building videos talk about sending heads, blocks, rods, cranks and cams etc out to a machine shop for checking, servicing, rebuilding etc, and it is so nice to see the machine shop side of the work. Keep the videos coming.
Enjoy watching you and your Dad working together. Great videos. I have learned a lot with your great tutorials. I can’t begin to imagine how much it cost to set up a proper machine shop. Those machines are very expensive. You all do great work. I am impressed with your precision and focus on detail. Your dad has been a good teacher.
I really enjoy your work. Please consider making longer videos. I would enjoy watching the complete overhaul of a Johndeere 2640. Thanks for your great work.
Enjoy seeing how an engine machine shop works. Much different than a general machine shop. I like how setups are done using levels, not by tramming in like regular machines. I prefer longer videos with more detailed narration. Thanks for your content.
Heavy engine design, doesn’t really need them. The exhaust gets seals as it’s under pressure and without seals will push exhaust into the valve cover/crankcase (PCV) potentially contaminating the engine oil and other issues. Edit: the exhaust/soot will also contaminate the valve stems causing pre-mature wear/failure of the valve stems. The intake will pull a small amount of oil though the intake stems under vacuum, boosted intake air is usually clean enough to not cause issues while under boost and the stems get re-lubricated under vacuum anyway.
Love your videos!! Not only do you show the process of when something is sent out to the machine shop, but you also give me a better understanding of why things break and why they need to be fixed a certain way, and how different engines work in general! Great stuff! I’d love to see a video where you and your dad talk about your history a bit. Unlesss I can see that somewhere else!
i love your professionalism and attention to detail, i have never seen anyone blow out under the seat before setting it👍👍👍. only thing i dont like is using assembly lube on the valves ( i only use oil) it takes to long to wash out the assembly lube by the oil and i have seen valves stick because of baked on lube. especially on turbo diesel applications.
Man I’m a machinist now at Parker helac in the cylinder division, as a hone operator my tolerance is .0015 but gets boring doing the same shit all day. I wish to someday be a machinist like you!!
I try an keep the cylinders within .0003 though out the whole bore, sometimes I can’t kept them that tight keep in mind some of the cylinders are over a foot long.
"It's Friday and Dad's drink heavy on the job". . .proceeds to show MtDew, lmfoa I can hear OSHA now "OHHHH NO NO NO, absolutely no sugar on the job, iTs A sAFeTy ThINg"🤙😂 keep up the awesome videos!!
Looking at getting into engine machining. I am going to start just doing cylinder heads for now. Do you have any recommendations on a seat and guide machine and also a surfacing machine. I need something capable of doing heads for heavy duty diesel engines (cummins isx cat c15 etc.).
Been doing close tolerance aerospace machine work for many years but never anything in the automotive field. Interesting how close tolerance those components are.
Jmz I have a question for you How much do y'all charge for a re'sleeve on a v8 back to a 4.00 inch bore I have gotten weird responses over the last few weeks It a 400 block that 0.30 out and was told it need to be 0.60 to clean up I'm cool with that but over heating comes to mind would rather be safe than sorry
If you make an un-fixable mistake on a number matching car block, or something else non replaceable, does insurance handle that or how do you handle something like that?
Just waiting for the , you should do it this way comments. Just remember as an engineer there’s many ways of doing things. Just because you have been taught one way, doesn’t mean it’s the best for everyone. People tend to stick to methods they understand inside out. Why change anything if your final product is perfect.
This is the first experience I have with any kind of machine shop and the details of it all and I never really thought about it but u guys do alot of tractor work is that normal for most machine shops or is it like a specialty of urs?
I used two different machine shops to do head work in the past (Suzuki Samurai and Toyota 4-Runner V6). Both shops screwed up my heads and cost me money and time. Completely their fault, their incompetence. Where were you when I needed you?
Just a suggestion, I would dress that valve seat driver tool. The striking face seems to be flaking material off from the video. I love these videos, keep em coming. I use these for my students in the Automotive technology class.
they are, but will do for that application. if you are surfacing. an indicator will be used. more intricate valve machines such as a rottler will have an angle sensor that sits on the guide pin to level the valve guide

Thank you! I still stumble over my words sometimes but it’s getting easier 😂.
I’m glad people enjoy them!

That magnet part was really cool. I had no idea that was a thing 👍
I really enjoy your work. Please consider making longer videos. I would enjoy watching the complete overhaul of a Johndeere 2640. Thanks for your great work.
Excellent video! I never would have thought that the con rods would become magnetic after many hours of service. Cool
Never knew that engine parts needed to be degaused. Thanks. There's my something learned today.
I'm a machinist of 30 years,in Georgia.I'm working on a John Deere head just like that. I enjoy your videos,thank you for sharing!
very cool! i didnt know some parts could develop a magnetic side effect after machining. Learn something new every day!
Coool i didn't knew that they could become magnetic. Nice something new in the knowledge bank 🏦
I really enjoy your longer videos
Nothing runs like a deer. Good job very informative. Keep it up.

You are blessed with your dad and you smart as him Good job again I love all your contents thanks
Hey bro love the vids. I'm really interested on why the intake doesn't get valve steam seals
Heavy engine design, doesn’t really need them.
The exhaust gets seals as it’s under pressure and without seals will push exhaust into the valve cover/crankcase (PCV) potentially contaminating the engine oil and other issues.
Edit: the exhaust/soot will also contaminate the valve stems causing pre-mature wear/failure of the valve stems.
The intake will pull a small amount of oil though the intake stems under vacuum, boosted intake air is usually clean enough to not cause issues while under boost and the stems get re-lubricated under vacuum anyway.
Learn something every time. Thank you.
These have quickly become some of my favorite videos to watch. I love how you explain every step
Excellent job great see people that know their business, fantastic upload cheers, D from the land down under
Keep up the good work. Post more videos I can’t get enough

Magnetic field yoke. That's cool. Little bit of science and engineering.!!!!! 👍
Your videos are same for me as watching the this is so satisfying videos.
Your getting better with the vids keep it up
New info about the magnetism thing 👍
i love your professionalism and attention to detail, i have never seen anyone blow out under the seat before setting it👍👍👍. only thing i dont like is using assembly lube on the valves ( i only use oil) it takes to long to wash out the assembly lube by the oil and i have seen valves stick because of baked on lube. especially on turbo diesel applications.

Bro this is badass.
Another great video thanks for uploading this video
beautiful work. great lookin shop!
Thanks for sharing!
Perfection
Great video. Thank and

Bravo
Fine work ecurices
hey, nice job, can you tell us what type of wheel do you use for resurfacing cilinder head , ( diamond wheel or a fly cutter wheel), tank you!

This was a good one. I'd like more like this if its not too much work.
Have y'all ever considered getting certified by ISO, specifically ISO 9001? Do you think your customer base would grow if you were?
Excellent job. How much does this cost for a chevy v8 ?
Jmz I have a question for you
How much do y'all charge for a re'sleeve on a v8 back to a 4.00 inch bore I have gotten weird responses over the last few weeks
It a 400 block that 0.30 out and was told it need to be 0.60 to clean up I'm cool with that but over heating comes to mind would rather be safe than sorry
i have a 6076 head that needs to be rebuilt, what would you charge? you do a nice job! what state are you located in? thx
If you make an un-fixable mistake on a number matching car block, or something else non replaceable, does insurance handle that or how do you handle something like that?
Were the big ends of the rods okay? assume they just needed new bearings?

It always amazed me that John Deere engines dont come from the factory with replaceable valve guides.
This is the first experience I have with any kind of machine shop and the details of it all and I never really thought about it but u guys do alot of tractor work is that normal for most machine shops or is it like a specialty of urs?
it is normal. a machine shop that does big diesels will see alot more of them than car engines.
1:26 Doritos!!!!!
is that black ring around your mill head a light?!
do you have any info on where you sourced that, I'd love to add one to my setup
Hop on eBay and search “LED ring light” 😁
Все чётко как всегда
Magnets, how do they work?
Why do you shoot air into the valves after 2hits??
I used two different machine shops to do head work in the past (Suzuki Samurai and Toyota 4-Runner V6). Both shops screwed up my heads and cost me money and time. Completely their fault, their incompetence.
Where were you when I needed you?
How do you know you have removed all the metal bits that go everywhere?
Where do you get the replacement guides for this head
Just a suggestion, I would dress that valve seat driver tool. The striking face seems to be flaking material off from the video.
I love these videos, keep em coming. I use these for my students in the Automotive technology class.
What tool did you use to check valve guide clearance
Mitutoyo split ball bore gauge
Thank you love your videos
Where do you guy get the small honing tools for the valve guides
Goodson
When can we expect some crank grinding content? 🤓
YOU CANT WORK ON JOHN DEERE! That's against the law!!! haha sorry had to!
How come no one measures? Levels are such a flimsy way to set up a work piece.
they are, but will do for that application. if you are surfacing. an indicator will be used. more intricate valve machines such as a rottler will have an angle sensor that sits on the guide pin to level the valve guide
Please wear some ear protection,
Degausser...
Who is the snowflake that gave this video a thumbs down?!(WTF)
There’s always a few of em! Lol t
👎👎👎👎 fail
Why?
