I am Brazilian, VW has been in Brazil since the decade of 50. No place in the world the VW bus has been in production for as long as here. Same happened with VW Beetle. Here as everywhere in the world has good parts, good manufacturers and also the bad ones. Empi buys millions of products from Brazil, suspensions, etc. And it sells very expensive. Excellent block made through the company's Auto Linea. So I say with conviction if you search well you get good parts with fair price made in Brazil. Nobody did VW like we do. I'm not good at english hope you understand.
Hello! Yes, I understand. You take much pride in your work and just like any Country you can find good and bad. I know Brazil has many talented passionate people. Thank you ! =)
It would be easier to watch if you would set your camera on a tripod so you aren't moving around so much. It's a little like getting sea sick... Great progress.
yes I'm envious but not about the torque wrench but about the rebuild. I'm 72 and always wanted to do a rebuild but never did so now I'm doing it through you. Thanks for the explicit videos as they allow us to build with you all the way through. Here in Atlantic Canada most of these beauties are rusted beyond repair so keep us up to date
I like the way everything was laid out about the engine rebuild. Also some very nice tools. Loved that torque wrench! Also really interesting about how the timing is set. Very informative video. Can't wait to see the rest of the engine reassembly. Very nice!
CT!!! This is some great stuff! I don’t care if you’re wandering around while Dennis is helping... I’m sure you’re excited as heck! I would be too!!! Can’t wait to see rusty back on the road!
Dennis , built my 1915cc , hes very ..very good ...just talking to him you quickly figure out he knows his stuff and builds solid reliable engines If your in Florida look him up
Good morning, CT from sunny Spain (even in October). I follow your channel since you bought the T1, even when you were with the one that was even in worse condition and I see that you are doing a wonderful job teaching. I had never seen a Vw engine cooled by disassembled air, and in fact I see that it is certainly simpler than other engines of its same generation as those manufactured by Citröen at the same time (2cv, GS-a, Visa) which, although quite Reliable do not reach the soles made by the Teutons.On the other hand I follow several restorations of T1 simultaneously, that of a boy with golden deaf and dull hair (and surfer) who worked especially well to cut the rusty sheet, but has sent the bus to a specialized workshop to weld all the new parts well , or that woman who has embarked on your same adventures with her T1 panel van, and the other handyman (and your friend :-D) who is the great Duckman, who has made so many modifications to his old bus that is already something else staff that a "simple" restoration. I hallucinate in how he alone cuts, welds and modifies freehand parts of the frame that a VW engineer would have taken months of calculations to dare to perform outside the drawing board.And I wait for each chapter of your restorations enjoying today's 38-minute video tutorial, in which that great mechanic (and restorer) who accompanies you. You lose your fear of the electric saw hehehehe ... that all parts are manufactured from T1.Here many utilities are restored such as the Seat 600, which is the favorite for it and some businessmen who come to restore some old bus of the greats, or trucks of the Spanish brand Pegaso (the cars they made are mythical today) .Greetings and thousands of likes that I wish you.
Hello my friend! Thank you so much for the kind words! Yes, MIC and DUCK-MAN are amazing. They are really doing a great job! I will start the metal work soon. Don't worry. It will be fun to watch because I have no idea what I'm doing! =) Stay tuned!
If I may suggest in the future, focus the camera on what your friend is doing , rather than wandering over all the parts on the table... We know what they look like, we want to see the process of assembly.
Thanks man! It's is really exciting to se it coming together before my eyes! I'm glad you like it. Yes, it is nice to know they are out there and willing to help. =)
Yes it is Exciting! You're lucky to have this friend/knowledgeable tech to give you a hand. Brings back memories of my first VW rebuild in about 1976 of my 67 bug. I was also lucky, as my friend was a mechanic at the local VW dealership. Pretty shaky camera work but there's nothing like a Thur morning roller coaster ride! lol Great progress! ...Newk from Kentucky
Coulda done with this video about 4 weeks ago... when I was at this stage with my engine. Think your catching up now I hope to do first run thisa weekend. Super helpful video CT. Must send you a pic of where I am with the engine build!
I would use permatex gasket sealant, on the engine case. It is the purple stuff in the can. Also put on the other paper gaskets on the engine. Just built my engine for my karmann ghia and no oil leaks
Not trying to step on any toes or anything with the following. The only problem with putting new bearings in is variation of the thickness of the bearing which changes the bearing I.D. Gotta mic out the bearing and crank shaft journals, and rod big end diameter without bearing, because they are all built with a tolerance. ie .0005 +/-. When assembled and torqued you can be out of spec either too tight or too loose. :/ Also that assembly lube is for 2 strokes? Specifically the crank rod and bearings which are encased separately from the gear box and lubricated by the mix from the fuel. Might want to use a normal engine assembly lube for 4 strokes/motor vehicle engines. You can tell the difference, it's viscosity is much higher(thick/sticky). But super cool it's going together! Hope it works out well :)
hi CT The voice of de guy that built the engine is very similar to the voice of Vin Diesel.... I didn't know that Vin Diesel know so much about VW engines 😊 Regards from Portugal
Assembling engine has been fine work so far. Like the snap on torque wrench although it is not from HAZET like Denni's t-shirts are. And of course, CT, a good looking and fresh hair cut. Greetings from germany, home of HAZET. There is no better manufacturer of tools.
Hello Michael! Thank you! Yes the wrench is awesome! Yes, I think he knew people would see the shirt. He likes nice tools! Yes, all my hairs cut feels good! =) Thank you! Stay tuned for more!
She is coming along CT. :). My mate and I have a saying, " You have to re-write the Haynes manual to do it your own way and get it done" lol. We have re-written the haymes manual many times. lol.
Wow, Really cool CT. I'm excited for you. Right on getting an expert to help you with this. I'm sharing this to friends mainly to show them this torque wrench. For someone using it daily for a company this is the tool. Too bad though it's not reversible. Probably to keep it calibrated correctly is my guess. Going in reverse might screw it up unlike a conventional manual torque wrench or what we called a clicker.
EXPERT HELP..was the Only way that was going to go back together, I was hopeing to see C.T. guess that case back together and howl with laffter at him torking the case with a cresent wrench.

and the small pieces of paper gasket on the oil pump... and hopefully the sealant wasn't a silicon based sealant, i use loctite 518, mainly because any excess won't obstruct the oil passages should it come loose inside the engine, but hey there is a slim chance of it happening but does..

so long ago with the help of John Muir's book, "HOW TO KEEP YOUR VW ALIVE" and a VW parts shop on Beacon Hill called, "Bow Wow" a Seattle institute back in the, "day"...and a sweetheart of a mechanic who owned a VW shop in Kenmore named, "Joe Beisman" a Wolfburg trained mechanic that lived in Nazi Germany
i had never used a torque wrench, subsequently i didn't sense the 10# on one of the smaller case bolts, long story short i had to have what remain removed by a machine shop...tech tip back then was outlining the case with a strand of thread (old motorcycle trick i was told)did this on the kitchen table with my then girl friend, we put this rebuilt in her oval window 1957...some 5 yrs later i owned a 64 ford station country sedan wagon with a 360 and the warmest heater
Not only Volkswagens are marking their territory, Dennis. Saab do also. Below the Turbo and the oil trap. Sad that Gangsta Motors have driven them to death! regards
Hi, CT. Nice to help you Dennis. I have one or two, three... questions. Did you take the right torques? I think I remember that the connecting rod bearings were tightened with 5 MKg = 49,033 Nm = 36,1651 ft-lb (Dennis took 23 ft-lb). For the engine block, I think it was 35 Nm = 25.8147 ft-lb (Dennis took 22 ft-lb +-). Did you follow that again? Because you can't see everything in the video. Did you also measure the axial play of the crankshaft, or do you do this only when the complete engine is assembled? There are always several ways to do it. Are only questions and no criticism. Otherwise I like what I see. Greetings from Germany also to Dennis
Notice that here, in my country, old Amilcar engines from the 20s have been restored, which even with a break in the block caused by a connecting rod break (and solved with a metal plate and rivets in remote times) was repaired in this decade successfully. They had in a forum of restorations, that many years ago there were people with the ancient cars of the 10s and 20s, they carried a small mold and material to redo the connecting rod and crankshaft bushings on the lost European roads of the hand of God

Notice that here, in my country, old Amilcar engines from the 20s have been restored, which even with a break in the block caused by a connecting rod break (and solved with a metal plate and rivets in remote times) was repaired in this decade successfully. They had in a forum of restorations, that many years ago there were people with the ancient cars of the 10s and 20s, they carried a small mold and material to redo the connecting rod and crankshaft bushings on the lost European roads of the hand of God
Yes, the parts are all in great shape. I don't think this engine had very many miles on it.
that sounded like he said its oil resistant up to a hundred degrees??? or did he say 400 degrees?
Fantastic Good
Thanks for the support my friend! =)
