You doing TH-cam and working on the 40 is your job. Stopping because your family wants to use your lift and use your help just shows what kinda people yall are. The world would be a whole lotta better place if everybody was like that.
I'd have the faith to let you build a motor like this for me. I'd trust your process because you show more knowledge then a couple of the machine shops around here we all use. Hope you catch this, I had the same issue with those bearings. To tight clearance. On your next build, use King bearings on both rod and crank. Went in flawlessly on the last 3 builds we have done. I did enjoy the video, I know you want the motor in but I love seeing videos like these. When she is finished, just take us for a ride is all we ask.
Something about building and watching an engine get built is therapy to me. I’m waiting on my olds 350 block to be ready so I can assemble! Great video this week
TOW4DAYZ- Exactly!!! I look forward to Wednesdays for a new video from Chad!!! He's in my top 3 wrench turning channels!!! Then it's just a couple/few days till Sleeperdude on Saturday!!! I would love to see Chad and Sleeperdude do a collaboration video!!! They're both in Tennessee.
Can’t wait to hear that 327 fire up and run. I never thought you could mix bearings to adjust clearances. That blew me away. You never stop impressing me with some of your old school methods. I know I’m older than you but I still see ways I never knew. 👍🏼
I've enjoyed this 40 build so much I just don't know what I'll do once it's done, nice work and that 327, it's funny how people think they know about building motors and never check and measurements on anything, great job Chad
Oh man my anticipation is going crazy I thought it would be in there. That’s ok Chad it gives me something to be excited about next week. But I can’t hardly wait. Still going to be watching for that picture of the 40 when it’s done and lockjaw together. I want to make a big one and hang it on my wall so I can show everyone my favorite autos of all time.
Really enjoyed the engine tear down music !!........327 Is lookin good...cant wait to see how she runs...be neat to measure the HP's somehow.....take care Mr. Chad... hope the knee is doin better.
I'll tell you after the week or should I say month I've been having it sure is nice to relax and see how you're hor rod is coming along. I sure do like your channel
Yes Sir Chad Planning on buying & fixing up Lawn Riding Mower Tractors then selling them at Reasonable price. Being as I'm Old an Retired GearJammer of 30 Years Who had a Major Heart Attack 2 years ago doing Very much Better now after not Smoking for 2 years. Take care always my Friend.
Ha! I have that same press!! I bought it thinking it would be a nice half hour warmup putting it together before I started the project I bought it for. Boy was I wrong. It's supposed to look like an H frame, but mine looked more like an A frame. All the holes were a tiny bit off, and the casters absolutely would not fit. So after six hours of machining, fabricating, swearing and tears, I got it put together. It turned out to be a nice little press. I feel like I was stuck on Gilligan's Island x2, without Mary Ann or Ginger. 😢
Hey Mr Chad, Love your video, Love that olo' CHEVY ORANGE on motors! Boy Howdy that thing is going to sing when you getter' all put together! Keep up the good work I'll be watching!!
The bent wrenches are distributer wrenches. The motor will be sweet .nothing better than the joy of firing up a fresh motor! Thanks for the great video
Hey hey y'all! As always, hope everyone is doing well and having a wonderful week! SOOO looking forward to seeing her completed Mr Chad! I'm certain she's gonna make you a tremendously awesome hot rod! 💙🙏🏼
You should put a 283 crank in the 327 block with some vortec heads lololol I am loving this 40 build it's been a lot of work for you, but I think your dad would be very happy to see it on the road again. I have had a great time watching you go through it.
Even if your not into all this mechanicalizing stuff seeing what all makes an engine work is educational…just because you’d rather get greasy and turn a wrench than sit in an office and play golf don’t make you a bad guy! 😎 There should be a “National Auto Mechanic Day of Visibility!” 🏁⚙️🔧🧰 God bless 🙏🏼🇺🇸🇮🇱
I sure would like to have my own tire changer myself Chad. I keep my eye out for an old one, air powered is just fine with me.. We have a farmer's market (a few of them really) in my area and it's been quite a few years since I've stopped into those.. there are a few old guys who have tools and things from closed down shops.. It really would make life SO much better to have one of my own.. I hate paying someone to do something I can do myself just need a tool to do it (well, and the space to put the machine)
When i started working at the tire shop back in 1978 , I used a hand manual tire machine when doing all the mag wheels . I did all the slicks that me and my buddies used street racing and damb sure used then on the Crager SS wheel that the old 4040 sa center cone machines would bresk the centers out of so it wouldn't hold the center caps on anymore . Harbor Freight has some and i had one thst worked great just needed the bead rings to help air up the tires with and they didn't carry them .
So happy to see you working on the Chevy , putting the motor together with the skill set learned from years of practical knowledge . Thank you for another video , your humor while you work always brings a smile to m face . God Bless you and yours , till next time , Stuart in Canada ..
As always Chad we have enjoyed your video 327 was a good engine and with your touch it's sure to please everyone watching. Keep up the good content we will be watching Larry and Sandy
Another great video Chad, keep them coming man. The old 40 is moving along man, won't be much longer. You built your new garage in 2023 I think that's probably why that cool light up sign a fan made said 2023. See you on your next video Chad so take care until then. 👍
Old School Canuck Mechanic Teachings on SBC Valve Lash is all the way Down Tight & then 3/4 Turn back or as you did until the Pushrods Roll easily between you're Thumb & finger
I have an issue with my knees also. Comes and goes. No fun when trying to work on stuff. Hope yours are okay at the moment. Enjoying the small block 327 content. My favorite engine 👍 Thanks for sharing
Hey Chad, I saw you got the wrenches I sent you. They are used for distributor service. Different wrenches for different make cars. Also good for hard to reach places. I found a 9/16, will get it out to you. Steve in Oyster Bay.
I think those are 202 heads if I can remember right the two humps on the front of the heads indicate those are 202. Those were really strong heads and would last forever.
Another clue to rod orientation is the bevel on the journal and the bevel on the rod. Reverse tge rods and the engine won't rotate and/or there won't be any side clearance.❤
You doing TH-cam and working on the 40 is your job. Stopping because your family wants to use your lift and use your help just shows what kinda people yall are. The world would be a whole lotta better place if everybody was like that.
I agree
Amen brother
Couldn't agree more!
Yes
100% agree!
Thank goodness! A new video to cure my boredom.
Hell yeah
That chain splitting was hilarious. Thanks for showing that kind of stuff. We're all human! That's something that I could see myself doing! Lol

I'm going to miss this build when you're done. I'll get over it.
I can't believe such a good job you did boring that block out I am very impressed with how you did that.
This is your blind friend. Glad to see you back at it again.
Brings me back to the day I rebuilt my first engine watching you. It was a 327 but it's been over 50 yrs ago. Enjoy the video every week.
So glad I turned on TV and a new video from chad

Yes sir!
I absolutely love watching you rebuild engines. But life goes on, and friends and family come first. Thank you for sharing!
There is something very calming about washing your crankshaft with a garden hose. Like....life is complicated as it is, don't make it any harder!
The bent wrenches are distributer wrenches. The motor will be sweet .nothing better than the joy of firing up a fresh motor! Thanks for the great video
Some channels I watch. Others I visit and watch kinda like family. I appreciate what you do.
Lookin' good ... Love it !

those wrenches are for getting at distributor bolts

Your a talented dude another great video by a great channel
A valuable information, thanks Chad, now I think I can do overhauling to my old car, thanks for the info..
I can't wait to see the 40 back on the road and going down the road
Another great video Chad, keep them coming man. The old 40 is moving along man, won't be much longer. You built your new garage in 2023 I think that's probably why that cool light up sign a fan made said 2023. See you on your next video Chad so take care until then. 👍
Thanks
Preshate it! 👍👍
Keep it up I enjoy your content 👍🏻
Keep doing what you're doing, I watch every week

Favourite day of the week! Legend!
Old School Canuck Mechanic Teachings on SBC Valve Lash is all the way Down Tight & then 3/4 Turn back or as you did until the Pushrods Roll easily between you're Thumb & finger
Looking better and better all the time!
Awesome vid
Heck yeah, excited to see the beast back on the road.
Letttttttssssss gooooooo!
Thank you Chad keep up the good work God bless ❤❤❤❤
I have an issue with my knees also. Comes and goes.
No fun when trying to work on stuff. Hope yours are okay at the moment.
Enjoying the small block 327 content. My favorite engine 👍
Thanks for sharing
Hey Chad, I saw you got the wrenches I sent you. They are used for distributor service. Different wrenches for different make cars. Also good for hard to reach places. I found a 9/16, will get it out to you. Steve in Oyster Bay.
Preshate it. 👍🏻
Eyeballing a measurement = using your eye-crometer. 😊
Love these videos I could watch another hour or 2 no problem
Yes sir Chad action keep up the videos watch out from them peasty😂 bees lol😅
Don't forget passenger side rear tire rubs fender, good job, good inspiration
I would've used steel shims. Not so much for the increased compression(although that's a bonus), but for the tighter quench.
327 roller v8 s10 has a nice ring to it 👌 👍
I think those are 202 heads if I can remember right the two humps on the front of the heads indicate those are 202. Those were really strong heads and would last forever.
Always remember to ... "Check ittt ... Cheeeckk it ... Cheeecckkk ittt" 🤣
You will get it 😂some time next month 😊
Love the time lapse!
Another Good video Chad, Love watching the 40.come together!
And I'm a Mopar guy! 😂😎🇺🇸
Another clue to rod orientation is the bevel on the journal and the bevel on the rod. Reverse tge rods and the engine won't rotate and/or there won't be any side clearance.❤
Excellent video Chad :) also nice rebuilt on 327 V8 motor and get there too! Well Done too!
Hello Chad hope your filling good keep up the good work you are my best friend
