    Isaac you're absolutely doing the right thing. A degree is an education rather than a training course. It helps shape you into a different [better] person for life. Whatever you decide to do as a post graduate, the degree will massively help you. I have a Batchelors and a Masters Degree in Engineering and these have augmented my career opportunities and earning potential massively over the years. It will be difficult but stick with it and I'm sure you'll make a great success of it. The very best of luck on your new journey :)

    I did a motorsport engineering degree ar Herts in 2009. It will open the doors to white collar jobs in the automotive and motorsport industry if you ever want to leave the workshop environment. I've worked for most of the OEMs and an engine component supolier based in the UK in design, development and integration. What it won't do (in my opinion) is give you much more knowledge than you already have when it comes to the workings of an engine. It will however open doors but everything is about experience even in the world of R&D.

    If there is no auto data for bolt torque and ford are clueless can the aftermarket bolt manufacturer's help, failing that a new set of bolts and a modern electronic torque wrench that will indicate when you have found the point of yield.
    I'm an old git now and it is great to see your development I'm glad you have decided to steer away from motorsport, I have known a lot of people try the motorsport route and find that the only person that gets any recognition is the steering wheel attendant.

    Sounds like Ford knows that their design on that motor is crap. If they can't get simple specs for torque and say that they usually sell a new block I say that says it all. Great video Isaac, keep up the great work.

    • @PhilG999
      @PhilG999 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Strange that Ford can't tell you the torque-spec on those mains! Somebody has to know their procedure for assembling them. Failing that you could probably make an "educated guess" based on experience (John and Lee may have some ideas) and looking up the details of the fastener size/threads in Machinery's Handbook. I ran into a similar situation many years ago when rebuilding "tie-rod" type air/hydraulic cylinders. The manufacturer didn't have a torque spec, so I used a trick I learned during a job at a retail store during the Christmas Season. They always had a few guys hired to assemble bicycles and the spokes were never right "out-of-the-box". I was always tasked with helping them out if they got covered up with orders. What THEY did was "ring" the spokes and adjust them so they all sounded the same note/tone. The wheels always ran perfectly true after that. I did the same thing with the cylinders by "ringing" the tie rods so they sounded the same. Must have worked because I never had one come back...

    Vision is critical to success. Let the ideas flow and chase down a pathway to make the vision happen. It’s the only way to go, life is too short to not take risks and shoot high! BTW - as the myriad comments flowed from last video title, I’m afraid it crossed the line into misleading us. We watched the full video thinking there was important news for BE. Your channel benefitted as a result. Risk of harm to reputation is high, as it speaks to your integrity. Not good when your core business relies on solid skills, competencies and honesty in interaction.

    Good lad, I don’t mean that in a condescending way! If you can get your degree while you’re young and take it through your life that’s a huge positive. It’s easy to put things off and never get around to doing it, which sometimes you’d regret. Think of the degree like an insurance policy and a foundation. You never know what the world holds and you never know what doors it could open for you in the future. Best of luck with it.

  • @jagracershoestring609
    @jagracershoestring609 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Looking at the diameter, then no more than 80 ft lb. The threads look one and a half threads short, too. I am old school, and rely on my right arm for tension, never fails. I hate the stretch bolt cult, stretching soft steel bolts to yield. Use 13.2 bolts to guarantee it will not break, but strip the thread first, (not recommended). I suggest that you get a copy of Machineries Handbook, full of useful engineering data. I used to own a Motor Sport Company, and ran a team of Jaguars. Get yourself varied experience, it will help you in life, including how to run a company.

      Totally agree about the ‘Right Arm-Integrated Torquewrench’ ….. One develops a feel lor it, from 4mm bolts right up to 20mm threads on Truck suspension parts for example.
      Of course it is best to adhere to specifications and a reliable torquewrench!!
      But on numerous occasions either one or both were not at hand…..
      As far as I know my integrated torquewrench NEVER disappointed me….

    Two of my kids have done Mech Eng degrees, one at Bristol, the other at Swansea ... I have an electronics degree and am a software engineer and maths nerd. I will say this, the maths involved in mech eng is significant. If you found the NVQ a bit too much writing and theory, just be sure the degree route is going to be right for you, because there is likely to be even more writing and even more theory. Whether you'll get much off the course that is directly applicable to the workshop, I don't know, their degrees were very heavily theory based, and hardly any practical skills at all, maybe this one will be different. I do enjoy the thermodynamics though! I've enjoyed working through quite a few of the questions that the kids were doing. My advice would be to get the reading list for year one of the course, which will be a probably half a dozen textbooks, see if you can find PDF versions of a couple of the books and have a read through, obviously you are not expected to be able to understand it all without doing the course, but it will give you a good insight into what lies ahead. It's always good to learn new stuff though, I'm nearing retirement and still enjoy learning new stuff every day! New programming languages, coding skills, it's all good!

    I think the ST engine has a “closed” block, this looks like an RS block which is open. Some high power 2.3 RS engines use the ST block as it’s assumed is stronger than the RS. Also this engine is a Mazda engine. Very similar to the Mazda MPS from around 2008, so you could look up Mazda MPS for torque settings 😉

      @ I have given lots of advice on how things should be corrected. For example, using a milling cutter in collet Chuck not a 3 jaw drill Chuck. Using a boring bar instead of forcing an external turning tool into a bore. Milling heads need to be in tram not on an angle like Lee does it. The list is endless all my advice has been ignored. I've spent the last 25 years in engineering, did a 5 year apprenticeship. What happens is the people that do know about the correct engineering practices get labelled as trolls by the loyal barum fans.

Part of my background is in engineering, in a machine shop, and only knowing what I was taught there, by people who had been doing it for years. And who was to say that their way was wrong?

    I found the following:
    2020 Ford 2.3L N3DA Torque Specs
    Based on the provided search results, there are multiple models with 2.3L engines, including the Ford Mustang, Explorer, Ranger, and F-150. Since the query specifies the N3DA engine, I’ll focus on the torque specifications for this engine variant.
    After analyzing the search results, I found that the 2.3L N3DA engine torque specs are consistent across the Ford models mentioned. Here are the key torque specifications:
    Timing Belt Cover Torque spec (Upper/Lower): 8 ft-lbs
    Timing Belt Cover Torque spec (Middle): 37 ft-lbs
    Timing Belt Tensioner Torque spec: 18 ft-lbs
    Camshaft Sprockets Bolt Torque spec: 50 ft-lbs
    Crankshaft Postition Sensor Torque spec: 15 ft-lbs
    Camshaft Bearing Caps Torque spec: 15 ft-lbs
    Timing Belt Idle Guide Torque spec: 18 ft-lbs
    Cylinder Head Torque Specs: 15 ft-lbs (initial), then loosen, and finally 15 ft-lbs + 30 ft-lbs + 90°
    Valve Cover Torque specs: 9 ft-lbs
    Exhaust Manifold Torque specs: 12 ft-lbs
    Exhaust Manifold to Pipe Torque: 35 ft-lbs
    Main Cap Bolts Torque Spec: 20 ft-lbs + 60°
    Connecting Rod Bolts Torque Spec: 25 ft-lbs + 90°
    Oil Pump Torque Specs: 8 ft-lbs
    Oil Pan Torque Specs: 8 ft-lbs
    Oil Pan Drain Plug Torques: 18 ft-lbs
    Please note that these torque specifications are for the 2.3L N3DA engine and may vary depending on the specific application (e.g., engine type, model year, and trim level). It’s essential to consult the manufacturer’s documentation or a reliable repair manual for the exact torque specifications and installation procedures for your vehicle.
