Thanks for the heads up, i know its wrong. I want to wait until i have the right tools to correct the timing. I have plenty of time before this engine goes in. I'll get it sorted, thanks man.
@@RestoreIt pheeeww.. Thanks god.. I thought you are gonna leave it like this.. don't even try to crank it.. Good luck man.. waiting for it to run.. That engine looks brand new btw.. Cool work.. Also check for the oil gaps for the valves and the main shaft.. if that's not set correctly then you'll face premature wears and improper combustion.. 😐
Just a note when doing cylinder heads: Check the torque of all bolts afterwards because the first ones you torque will loosen as you tighten the rest. 👍
Love the attention to detail and thank god you don't play any doof doof music during your videos. Watched them all so far and looking forward to the next episodes
Ok So this video flew past quick and i must say that the refreshed engine looks outstanding and your attention to detail is out of this world. GOOD JOB
Great video! I'm binge-watching these at the moment. I know this video is almost two years old, but for anyone doing a timing belt on these engines, you should rotate the crank through two revolutions before you tighten the tensioner bolt, it takes all the slack out of the belt.
As in, after you slip the belt on and loosen the tensioner bolt (allowing the spring to expand and take up slack), you rotate the crank twice before re-tightening the tensioner bolt?
I’ve absolutely loved this series. Brilliant. My e30’s M20 is getting a full rebuild by my local shop now and this series gave me so much insight to that process.
I love everything you have been doing with this restoration series other than when things need to be done before hand like timing the engine or not using the correct bolts or tools. Your just creating more work for yourself man. I never like to repeat my work and I know you wanted to get the video out but I would have much rather saved you more of your own time if you had waited for everything you needed. Just looking out for your own sanity since time is a precious resource!! Thank you for the videos though man. Keep em coming!!
Beautiful looking power plant, very well done. One thing I would interject, is that you forgot to set the valve lash. It's a bit easier to do before putting on the intake and installing the spark plugs. Okay, two things. The second is that you should spin the engine 2, preferably 4 times and reconfirm timing marks prior to tightening the tensioner back down. You want the engine to rotate using the spring pressure to gather up all of the slack onto that side of the belt before you tighten the tensioner back down.
Major respect to you for loving your car so much you did an honest restore on it. I know that myself and many others would have done so many extra performance mods while in the engine.
Amazing work! I'm restoring a E36 at the moment to an OEM+ finish its taking so much time and energy to get it to a level not even half of yours. Its very impressive work! Keep at it mate!
thank you so much for making this video im in the process of turboing my 1989 325i and im in the process of rebuilding the engine and your videos help alot.
he also greased way to many things like the shaft sealingrings and the headbolts ...that one of the first things u will be told when u offically learn the "job" of a mechanist in germany ... when u grease a cylinderheadbolt (for example) it does not have the same tension (more) like if its not geased when torqued to the same spec ... simply because of the reduced friction !

Oh man.. You doing a so hard work I can't imagine how hard to take apart and reassemble a modern more complicated engine. Plus you doing two jobs at the same time which is filming and editing and running the channel Are you sure that your day is 24 hours? And I can't wait to here that engine run. Good job man.
Good job, the engine looks really good, I think all the effort you have put into making this build look so good will make driving the car when it is done all the more pleasurable.
Steve, I know you have to have a great sense of accomplishment. We're all proud of the work you do and we're excited to see the car get closer to to being complete. I can't wait for you to take us cruising with you. Take care.
@@M9Only I think it was a case of we've been waiting so long for the assembly video and he was still waiting for some parts that he basically just put it together so that we could finally see it assembled.
Watching restoration videos is satisfying, to see something become almost new again. Sadly don't have the money right now to start one. My restoration/modded car would be a 280zx lowered with a handmade front bumper. You're doing a great job my friend.
Makes me recall the time I had to do some major overhaul on my brother's Mini cooper S engine... but this is seriously good work! Can't wait to see it start and run.
You've got some huge balls taking on a project like this. It looks amazing but judging my some of the comments here.......it's broken!!! I'm not a mechanic so I don't know, but it does look good!
I think you forgot the torque inhibitor bolts between the valve manifold arm and the front crankshaft flywheel gasket. Those are easy to overlook... Very impressive job, the engine is looking really sharp!
Really love your project!! I'm looking for a e28 and restore it completely as well. I will use your series as nice guide for my future projects! Keep up with the Bimmer stuff man!
Well done. You have already done such a job! Incredible. With every episode you give me the idea of one day doing something similar. The end is almost here!
Bravo pour le résultat ! T’as de quoi être fier. Un travail long et minutieux. Une restauration dans les règles de l’art. J’aimerai en faire autant sur ma Civic EG6 mais je n’ai pas les compétences. Hâte de voir la suite ! 👌🏼👍🏼
I can't see a little bushings beetwen cyl block and head, it adjust line cylinder head and gasket. I hope u instal this its very important. And never use grease to assembly sealants- u have a assembly lub. Sorry for my english i hope u understand me 😉
@@d3rg3raet25 been an auto tech for 15 years. I always use oil or grease for orings and seals so they dont collapse over themselves when installing. Ive never had an oring "slip". They sit with pressure and inna groove its not going anywhere. That grease melts off at first start. Dry seals are far more dangerous then greased ones. Most people don't know some seals have a metal spring ring around the seal on the inside to keep pressure.
In aircraft maintenance,reference to the manual given by Boeing or Airbus,we use oil, grease even jet fuel to lubricate seals or o-rings before installation,and this step is necessary.
One helpful hint for applying gaskets to a part is to use gasket sealer to attach the gasket to your part and then use high temp anti sieze on the other side of the gasket that way the gasket only sticks to one part and makes it easier to remove in the future
It's a good idea with a build like this to mark every bolt that is fully torqued down with a line across the head of the bolt onto what it's going in to. This both shows which bolts are tightened and which are loose and also gives an indication of any bolts that have backed off! Apologies if you were doing it. I just didnt see it.

We have the same engine at school and let me say something this engine sounds amazing
One of the best BMW ever made. Salute from Germany
Just a note when doing cylinder heads: Check the torque of all bolts afterwards because the first ones you torque will loosen as you tighten the rest. 👍
German Engineer: I believe we have enough bolts to hold the oil pan securely.
German Chief Engineer: You’re fired.
It's all calculated my friend ;-)
I am no motor head but this was super fascinating with your usual honesty and attention to detail first class
Love the attention to detail and thank god you don't play any doof doof music during your videos. Watched them all so far and looking forward to the next episodes
Yes, thank you! It's meditative and relaxing to watch without the music.
Ok

Heinz Kot the torque in this case is achieved by torque angle gauge, so it doesn’t matter if they are greased or not.
You dont need that special angle torque device =) just write a line on the bolt and turn it to 3 o clock =) 🤗
Oh man.. You doing a so hard work
I can't imagine how hard to take apart and reassemble a modern more complicated engine.
Plus you doing two jobs at the same time which is filming and editing and running the channel
Are you sure that your day is 24 hours?
And I can't wait to here that engine run.
Good job man.
Excellent work. It didn't come out of the factory that clean. Well done.
That oil filter placement is BOGUS! The M30B35 filter placement was the right way to go.
Good job, the engine looks really good, I think all the effort you have put into making this build look so good will make driving the car when it is done all the more pleasurable.
Best restore seires on youtube tbh
Thank you dude!
Well done man, looking forward to the rest of the series.
You are the rain man of restoration

Attention to detail is off the charts, who else cleans the engine stand!! Great video!!
Nice work. Looks brand new!
This is better than from the factory, congrats
BMW M20 one is the best ever engines ever made FACT !!! . Great engine rebuild mate
25:20 looks incredible, so clean
Those before and after shots are just night and day, amazing work
You have officially put more effort in that engine, than it would have ever gotten at the factory, well done!
I just did this rebuild as well two summers ago. Also on my channel. I’m glad people still appreciate these engines
Nice too see my old touring getting the love it deserves. Keep up the great work.
I really wanted to see finally the finished product is great greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽
Even though is 95% done!
It still looks good then b4!
I wish I can do the same to my car!
Great job!
14:05 you forgot the shaft seal that goes in the guide cover. It'll oil like crazy.
i was just about to say, no cam shaft seal
No he did not. It will be in second video.
kkkkkkk Vai jorrar oleo.
Eu ainda acho estranha a hélice deste motor
Hi. Yes, this is exactly what I needed with my afternoon coffee break. I hope these videos never end! Saludos
Well done! You are great!
And it is very helpful!
Just a reminder, you forgot 1 bolt at the alternator brace behind the crankshaft pulley.
I'm learning so much from this restore series. Amazing
I hope the timing belt is corrected for position, and hope that the sparkplug wires are in correct order. Great video as always.
Yeah. Did not really even mention timing or tdc etc.
He said he was going to get someone else to do the timing when it was ready to go in to the car

You can rotate that oil filter housing to where the filter faces down to reduce the mess during oil changes.
Wonderful and accurate work bro,I work same and looks this work my eyes crying of satisfaction.
most beautiful engine ever made..
