      engine was, from memory, a Renault unit, which was also used by Volvo. they should be fairly easily available, although many in the USA are converting to V8 power to give them the performance they always should have had.

      @@petelattimer6808 yeah, I am kind of bored with a LS-swapping everything, but I have seen these cars with an LS4 from a FWD car that brings them up over 300hp. I don't think many mods are required and the original gearbox is used (with internal component upgrades).

      Engine was also used in the Peugeot 604 with 3 carbs (1 single plus 1 double) or with injection. I owned a 604 SL in Norway. Actually, these engines can be made to perform very well with some special parts. Even a turbo. They can do easily 7000 rpm without damage to valvetrain , it is originally very good balanced. As a engine unit they can be made to do about 300 HP with turbo/supercharger and it will last if done correctly. @@petelattimer6808

    I have a subscriber that owns a Delorean. It was a project between she and her dad. Her dad passed away, and she lost interest in it. She saw my late father's 1958 Plymouth on my channel and that gave her the desire to start working on it again. You never know who you might inspire or encourage with a video! I'm going to show her this video. Her engine still runs, or it did a couple of years ago. Hopefully she can catch things before they get as bad as this poor engine! God bless!!

    Guys, my dad is a retired Italian Air Force airplane mechanic, and as a young boy I never understood how he could like very much to tear things down and make them work again. It was dirty and demanding, and I simply didn’t want to have anything to do with it. Now, while watching your videos, I can understand him much more! Thank you for that and God bless you!

    I watched for the carnage and was not disappointed. That was a lot of effort to pull that engine apart. Alex on Legit Street Cars did a full restoration on his DeLorean but his was only showing the first signs of the valley of death syndrome. He found a NOS parts supplier in Chicago area and was able to get parts and advice on rebuilding his car. You might consider contacting him about engine options. He is a master mechanic with over 20 years experience.

    Good luck for this restoration.
    Even in France the V6 PRV (Peugeot, Renault, Volvo) wasn't famous because of : low power, big fuel consumption, bad balancing (at the very start it was a V8 project).
    I live about 20 miles from the factory where this engine was made.

    Awesome video! So much better than just swopping the engine out, there is no fun in watching that anymore. You can absolutely pull this motor through the valley of death, that block is definitely fixable by welding holes shut with gussets or drilling and tapping holes. What an epic storyline this will be with your channel’s name, the valley of death issue and second chances! Please get her running again🙏🙏

      @pieterloock8911 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@ingresswizard9044 100% agree with what you say, especially from reliability standpoint, but those cars properly restored and numbers matching will reach silly money in future, whereas a modern engine swop out will also cost fair bit but you will have very little value in the end. Either option will be a tonne of work, so I would choose the one that leaves me with the best investment when all is said and done. Plus I am just a sucker for trying to save any old engines, can’t stand the thought of someday soon only having electric motors to get excited about…

    As a young man l was a mechanic at a Renault dealership, l hate the way those engines are so misunderstood and underappreciated.
    I used to service those engines on a regular basis and trust me, they're a good engine when used correctly in the right vehicle.
    The big mistake that Delorean made with that engine was using the normally aspirated version , the turbo version used in the alpine and mvs sport's cars behaved like quite a different animal.
    The n/a version there however still was a very good smooth engine but was much better suited to more sedate use in sedans such as the r30,r25, Volvo 264,760 and Peugeot 604 etc .
    Don't hate the engine, hate the jerk who put it in the wrong car.
    Ideally, Delorean should have gone with the aluminium rover/Buick v8 in one of its variations or turboed that v6 like alpine did.

    I went to college back in late ‘60s in Daytona Beach, Fla. at that time you could drive on the beach. Some folks would park too far out at low tide. Come back to find there car under water. That would explain the total water damage and the sea shell in the engine. You may find more salt water damage when you attack the interior. Keep up the good work.

    The more important question is, once the body is stripped to a shell and that paint is removed, is it in good shape? If so, then discuss how to proceed with other DeLorean youtubers and owners. You may even be able to do a collaboration with DeLorean nation and those who installed the LS6 (LS anyway) engine swap and have a car combining the best of the old, with the best of the new.

    These are a good engine, and properly tuned and turbocharged they make good power. They were always very conservatively tuned in NA form.
    But I’d be tempted to use a later quad cam Renault/Peugeot V6 from the early 2000s. Easy and cheap to get in Europe and ship over, they are a very slick and powerful unit. And as it’s the direct descendant of the PRV it’s sort of “correct” for the car :)
    There is even RenaultSport gear for them as they were used in the very epic Clio V6!

    Wasn’t that engine used in a bunch of different cars? Can you guys get one of those?

    Ok I did a little web searching. The PRV engine was made from 1974 to 1998 by Puegeot/Renault/and Volvo Cars. It is the same engine used in the Delorean. This shouldn’t be too hard to procure. Good Luck and I hope you get
    McFly home again.

    Should’ve put a doggy pool from the pet store under that engine while you were working. Might save some of the mess. I’ve done that before

    I love how you are taking the time to go through the motor🎉 I understand my last comment and the last video for this episode for this car was a little bit out of the line for my contacts have comments that I normally post but I really think there's a possibility in this car but you need to get a new motor. Completely strip that paint off estimate what body panels are good or not take the original patina stainless steel panels on the car like it originally had and get the correct tail lights for it and then fix all the tidbits that needs to get done

    Pry on the flywheel back and forth. Hopefully it will help you if not the Father and son team will come up with a great plan they always do.

    The Delorean is such an iconic vehicle just like the pinto was both could have been made with better engines but those engines fetch such a high price in perfect condition I’m just glad to see people working on these cars still to this day and would love to see someone make a drag car from an original delorean.
