Rebuilding my wifes old 308 ...so thought i would watch a refresher video as its been a while since I've done one. Boys what a great video to watch...i appreciate the time to film , edit and post. Very informative. Paul from Beaconsfield.
I once packed a 308 oil pump with Vaseline with a fresh rebuild…. 20 seconds after start up I’m holding it at 2 1/2 RPM to break the cam in and the Vaseline plugged the oil filter and blew it off the motor….. Huge mess…. These days I see in the USA they prime the motor with an old dizzy shaft and a cordless drill…. Wish I had of known that back in 1989……
Quite similar looking to the Oldsmobile engines of the day with a big block Chrysler oil pump.

Nice build 👌
Oh Mick
chevy orange
Great video. Can I ask what company and volume type is the oil pump???? Have enjoyed this four part engine build.
What size cam did you put in this engine? Thanks
Is there any way of removing the heater hoses completely? They're making my engine bay look shit
Awesome! Thanks guys
G'day, great video, very informative. Just wondering what type of grease you used when you were packing the gears on the oil pump?
How about a v6 rebuild
Great videos, but hold the phone on the side bro! Use the whole frame, cheers.
Whats sealant are you using on on all your gaskets etc ?
why not show the inlet going on? so much detail and missed many
seriously painting the outside of rocker covers but leaving them clearly rusted on the inside and installing them and calling that good.
