@@powellmachineinc3179 The top of the cylinder is the most important, as that's where the rings are holding the most pressure. Would much rather the cylinder be round and a couple tenths big than tapered. Ring has a much harder time trying to follow a tapered cylinder.
Love your channel man my first job out of high school was a machine shop. I was very fortunate to have some Ole timers in there that took me under there wing and taught me the right way.
Until someone actually works in a machine shop, they just don't realize the things involved in setting up a bore or how its measured out to get the correct size. I was working with men who did this for a living, they took me in a place to just watch how they got it the right way. This was over thirty years ago... sadly even those ways are antiquated as your new tools make you aware of how it is an how it should be. Technology has grown faster than most folks realize. Good or bad, "It is what it is" and how we all learn those important things.
Hey Daniel, Tim here, i wish profilometers were everywhere back in the day, but even an old school hone job, done PROPERLY wud work fine... my evidence: my very first motor, (Poncho 400) was bored, one sleeve, honed for TRW Pistons, still runs today in a '69 Bird.....but the machine work was done by the BEST Pontiac machinist on the east coast (Nunzi)......you cudnt even tell there was a sleeve installed, my point: He had no profilometer in '83, he had expertise/knowledge.....the profilimeter gets us machinist nerds to an even HIGHER level!!......lets hope Ray and Stevie DONT try to machine anything soon!!!!.....HAHAHA.....LOVED the vid my brother!!....PEACE to you sir!!

Excellent! I see a lot of videos of guys using the profilometer and spew readings like I’m supposed to know what they all mean. Your explanations of Rpk and Rvk were very helpful. I’d love to know what all the rest of the readings actually mean in practice. Good stuff 🤓
Excellent technical information in discussing the stone grit vs surface finish. Looking forward to an update video with the different stones. Keep up the great work!
That dial bore gauge looks a lot like mine - except mine does smaller holes, 0.8 to 1.5 inches. I bought it for doing “model engines” having bores in that range…
😂, had a similar thing happen, got a block in that another company did, not only did it have almost a thousands taper, smaller at the bottom, but also chatter marks at the bottom...... Had to dwell it at the bottom, but got it right.... Another great video!
Thank you for the great vids … your FT lifter vids are some of the best info on the topic I’ve watched . Depending on the cylinder material … and hardness of course … an old GM block, Darton sleeves, a new aftermarket block My current program on Dart SHP builds … measuring at 225 Brinell … 170 diamond first cut to exact size with lighter load, should give about 500 Rz. Plateau with 600 CBN light load, (CBN sharper than diamond) to an Rpk of 7-9 µin … and then burnish with brush or blocks to knock off the ‘fuzz’ Done.
Good info, I always took in the block and pistons and just trusted what they did, may explain some of the failures I had, just took it for granted the machine shop knew what they were doing, fml, lol...!!!!!
I really enjoyed this video. Great to see small machine shops being a le to dig into the details of a cylinder surface finish. 20 years ago i worked for a Marine OEM and we were working through a ring/piston scuff issue. Being an OEM we had to run diamo d hone stones and if the stones were worn or dull they would smear the metal instead of cutting cleanly. i belive the metric was % of "torn and folded metal". There may be better metris/ controls now. I just mention it as somthing to keep in mind, better to be a little aggressive with the plateau and not have a smeared finish.
Hi Daniel, interesting video, we are all learning and progress for you! I under stand you can use that profilometer for gasket surfaces also! Got to love those tools!! Great job Daniel!👍👍👍
When a factory block is honed they use one head with literally three sets of stones three cones the heads complete were around $15000.00 each the machines have 48 spindles a diamond ream for both crank and cam same for balance shaft if present the reamers are used like a regular reamer the honing process is done with diamond not aluminum oxide or silicon carbide there is one manufacturer that only uses silicon carbide on a perfect bore less then 3 micron from a perfectly round bore just to get a crosshatch. The direction they were going was a mirror finish with an engineered laser pattern oil retention folowed by a mirror toping to knock down stubble left by laser you can not see the pattern after topping there is no grit number to make a comparison totaly different process all done in under a minute. It would require a different ring costing an Additional Dollar, thats right One dollar nixed it, but it was the only way to meet oil consumption requirements. So goes another 3-5 million engines over the life of a program one dollar is that big of a deal. Who uses the silicon carbide stone Sorry that is confidential and must remain that way If you have the right equipment to measure cylinder roundness it is obvious.
Dan, we used to start race engines on the dyno with petroleum based oil. After break in, we would switch it over to synthetic, mostly due to cylinder finish. We worried about ring seal. As technology progressed, we started getting better at the cylinder finish, and then we could first start them with synthetic. Besides the fact of getting way better cylinder pressures.
I don’t do machine shop anymore I miss it I did work at 2 different shops the 2nd one was for a guy that raced at Daytona when they raced on the beach his name was LB Micheal’s
🤣🤣 I think your dead pan delivery needs work and I wondered if you were going to make it through it. LOL I was already laughing by the time you cracked. LMAO
Very informative . . . but I do have a question. What is the gauge line and where on the piston is it located? *_Andrew_* . . great video and editing work. It makes it all so much easier to understand.
Would it be better to hone a block with a torque plate or not? Having to block under stress with head torque on it would that give you a better idea of measurements? Enjoy your videos keep them coming thank you.
Some machinists are using a bristle set of stones to get the finish you want. Lake Speed has been proposing using the roughest stone/diamond to start with and the smoothest finish stone/diamond/bristle you can find. Obviously, different block manufacturers will require a different approach. The end deal is more oil captive in the cylinder wall decreases wear.
I'm glad you didn't ever see any of mine when I got started. Self thought it's taken a lot on the learning level. My machines are manual stroke so it's all in me and timing
When talking about the data on your electronic reader is that telling the cross hatch pattern or the depth of the grooves that the stone leaves behind, a bit of curiosity for me. I know you said about moving to a 600 stones plus never seen that electronic reader before.
To machine the cylinder you need to know the property of the aluminum and know how much they will grow when they get hot and you bore and hone to the pistons, not a standard number. Remember the old Dodge, they were bored to a fractional size, not a standard bore like 4.125, 4.135 etc..
@@powellmachineinc3179 it would be mutually beneficial for you to bore it and hone it as cheap as possible, no torque plate, no blue print and make the customer use it savings to purchase new pistons, even Keith Black Hypereutetics, Never listen to the customer because when it blows up it will be all your fault. Better off just saying get your junk out of here and let someone else get burned. I had a friend who tried to save money by pressing on the piston himself, only he put them all on the rods backwards. I broke one trying to get the pins out in the press. And it was all my fault.
This was probably honed by hand with a drill and 3 stone cylinder hone. I've done it a few times and it's tricky for the average guy to not pull it too far out of the top. You really have to pay attention.
wow, this is the aluminum 53 block i personally honed. It is my best hone i ever did, la creme de la creme, my work of art. I am certain he compares my talent in honing to ray Charles talent. Can't wait to see the video and how much he will be amazed by my perfect workmanship.
Legitimate question here, if you've got a cylinder with excessive taper that's too tight at the bottom can't you short stroke it to clean up the bottom and then finish it with a few full strokes to make it uniform?
@@powellmachineinc3179 Thank You, I appreciate your taking the time to reply. I find it amazing how bad some of the stuff you get in is and yet most of the time you're able to save it. But like you say it's easy to take metal away it's a lot harder to try and put it back.
Believe it or not stock ls 6.2 piston to wall clearance is -.002 to +.001 due to the way the piston is designed and how it expands when it is heated the tight gets looser and the loose gets tight
Wow, they didn’t even go for the Ronnie Milsap honing technique….they went full on Ray Charles right from the get. Seriously though, I like you because you say “half a thousandth” or “four point o-twenty five and a half” instead of “four and two hundred fifty five ten thousandths” like a lot of other machinists on here would say just to show off.
Bore taper is an interesting topic in that how do we know it is not better with being say .001 larger at the top? I say that because the top of the pistons hotter and expands more. The rings are hottest at the top. Bore distortion is greatest at the top. And so whose to say in dynamic running conditions. That plus .001" at the top is not better. Most of us shoot for consitancy. Zero taper. But i think there is a good argument for .001 thou or less taper top to bottom not actually being a concern.
Definitely hilarious but imo squareness of the cylinder is more important than it being .001" oversized. When the cylinder has a tapper, the rings can't expand fast enough on its way back up at higher rpms to maintain the seal. I haven't tested it but have seen a poor dingle ball honed engine that I've tore apart where the owner said it would lose power about 3500-4k. The only issue I found was .0025 of tapper, top to bottom. After some research, with other people experiencing the same seneraio that had to be it. I'm not sure what the tolerances are and am not bashing you in any way. Just wanted to hear you thoughts on what I've experienced.
@@powellmachineinc3179 I found a 1950s pep boys Portable hone like new can't find any replacement stones for it run across the CBN and diamond on Ebay well I'll try this😂😂
@garlandjones7709 if you think. 0004" is a issue it just proves you have never honed a block, if we are doing 15k plus race engines with light and small rings, we are gonna do everything possible...street engine with stock rings and pump gas riding up amd down the highway is a absolute waste of time, there are however some problem engines that actually move a lot that we plate even with stock rings and pistons, ultimately everyone wants to do the best job possible but you telling me to charge my customer for something he will never get a return on is stupid, and not your call or business, if you want to open a shop and do it your way, carry on, and lmk how it pans out, all the best
