I like the ways people manage to do this. It has been said that one of the reasons people could turn up the boost in the Nissan 300ZXTT was because it had oil squirters from the factory. There were certainly other reasons, but that was certainly one of them. I think about what would happen if Nissan made all their cars as good as their 6 cylinder engines.
Suzuki were the first manufacturer to use piston oil jets in a production engine in 1984 (Suzuki GSX-R 750) They stated it came from pre - WWII aircraft engine technology as keeping piston crowns cool is pretty difficult with 40+psi boost and 2,000+hp. They are now ubiquitous and seen in all modern engines. (at least the ones I've seen in pieces) One other advantage I've found, small end wear decreases because there is so much oil under the piston which no longer relies only on splash and enough rpm to centrifuge oil up there Those Porsche squirters are a great development, don't open until rpm (therefore oil pressure) gets high enough to be needed.
Gerald another great Video always enjoy watching you work.... Congrats again on Damons engine if she holds together another two races it will become a piece of history all done at your shop.... I will assume your phone rings off the hook for race engines, i sure know if i was not 60 yrs old i would be very intrested in building a contender for my pro street 64 nova...
Wd 40 works great for cutting aluminum. Dont listen to the armchair quartebacks. Everyone uses wd 40 for cutting aluminum. Smells way better then tap magic aluminum
Did you say nikasil cylinders? I melted the nikasil cylinder on my 1982 BMW R65 motorcycle engine in about '95 ish when I forgot the jets in a fresh fogger nozzle install. Neither gas or NOS, just wide open. Did a lot of other things too. But that was the first time I'd seen so much as a crosshatch worn off one of those let alone any damage.
Awesome graphics with your brand in it on the intro. 😁. Gerald or is it Gerald? Take the criticism lightly. It's your machine shop is it not? Out of curiosity does the process your doing help bump that red line up on that hardware or naw? TY for sharing and TY Miss Jackie for helping.
I heard that running a hyperutectic piston requires more bore clearances than forged piston for thermal expansion I wonder if it would be possible to do this modification and keep them cool enough to run less clearance. Just curious
WD40 thing makes me ROFLOL . use to have RP1200 resurfacer and PCD tool on aluminum WD40 may a SWEET cut at end . love it for general LUBE like the old "3in1" oil . gun lube , etc . .... peeps can gripe all they want as i use on tap & dies as well . people gotta feel 'keyboard superior' , dont they
Love your videos. Just a bit of advice,, Make sure that you don't have any copywrite issues by keeping background music inaudible. I may be wrong but it sounded like country music in the background. A friend got a copywrite strike for having classic rock playing in the background (shop radio) Thanks for all the great info---Ben
Leaving this comment too help your algorithm. Great job
That's a nice modification to the 3.0l block. The same oil squirter is used in the Porsche Metzger engines. Thanks for the great video Gerald!
Great info as usual thanks for the knowledge.
Nice work Gerald.
Have a great day.
Take care, Ed.
Thanks ED

Gerald and Ruby y'all rock! Love seeing the master work. Peace
P.S. Thanks Jackie
Thats pretty cool to see again Gerald, there should be plenty-o-oil on them bearings!
I love these videos...the self made 'jigs' are awesome !
wow...that is realy cool...& u made the driling jig...?...beutiful..!...great video...! thank u..!
Thanks
I love the old school tricks .
Love the content. Thanks!!
Great video, Thanks for sharing and showing how you do it. Later
Great video. thanks
Thank you sir, excellent information!

I have some new cutting oil that work the best I have used.
You should try alcohol on aluminium. Work,s good

Yes
Great video! Do you think it’s worth doing on a street car, like a 2.5 8v rebuild?
Thank you for posting another interesting video !. Do you see any significant difference between WD-40 and cutting oil ?.
I've been working with some different cutting oils I'll post it when I'm done. Thanks
What kit was used for the oil squirting kit?
Funny how people that critique " Don't know Shit from Apple Butter!😂 my dad used to say this.
So proud of gerald miss ruby Damon on npk win woop some more that noonan proline a$$ little ol shop mustang Ok. Awesome job Bbc to the front ❤😢
Thanks

👍👍👍

No less clearances with hyperutectic.
Oh okay 👍 thanks for letting me know that I was thinking of trying some KB hyperutectic pistons but I don’t know much about them
But does that decrease the life of the bearings?? not criticism just a sincere learning question
No
@@BrandRacingEngines okay when doing this do you have to increase oil capacity to keep up with the displacement or is the original capacity enough
@@BrandRacingEngines sorry for all the questions just curious
Most oil system have a 30% reserve that the oil pump bypass

Thanks my friend
Obviously the WD40 has worked for however long you’ve been doing it and years ago it was used for anything and everything and it’s still around
