    This is probably a dumb question, but is it important to use a machine shop that has a good reputation of building performance engines?

      It depends on the work you're having done and how well you know what you want. If a shop grinds cranks, you can drop one off and tell them what to grind it to.

    Hello Pete nice to be watching one of your videos. Thanks for sharing. Are you going to show the entire build and what size engine is it ? 😊 Artie

    Nice job, Do you take fine scotchbrite to the bearings during assembly?
    I knew someone who installed one bearing upside down and the crank never got oil in that journal. The hole didn't line up on the crank journal. Didn't realize the mistake for years after but always had problems with the motor. One mistake can ruin so much. Very important. I always like to have another set of eyes during assembly.

      I do not Scotchbrite. Those holes are so important

    Vids are good to go. You do same for lower main bearing that you did for top?

    Say you might not work on the engine, Do you spray any oil on the block to prevent rust?

    • @PetesGarage
      @PetesGarage  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I took the block back to the machine shop for some work, they will spray it
