- How to build the right side of the engine case, including oil galley plugs, crankshaft, camshaft and distributor. First time build, with tons of help from Jake Raby's DVD (link below), case machining from Len at Hoffman Automotive Machine Jorge at European Motor Works and Will at Westchester Auto Machine. Watch as I assemble the Type 4 Store 9590 camshaft, index it to the crank, and index the distributor drive to everything.

@16:55 -- On all stock-type 914 distributors that I know of, there is a mark scribed on the lip of the distributor body at the #1 cylinder position.
The teeth on the distirbutor drive gear are slanted (hypoid gears) so you actually have to turn the driveshaft a bit to get the teeth of the drive shaft to mate to the drive gear on the crank. This is especially apparent if you R&R the shaft with the engine together.
Thanks for pointing that out, Dave. Yep. On all that I’ve owned (before this one) there’s a mark on the lip. For some reason this one doesn’t have it...so I thought I’d show how to line it up using the cap lead.
Hi Ian a very great video .....i like it and it helps me for my rebilding Typ 4 914 👍... Best regards from Germany
Danke!
Ian....
You are an absolute star. Brilliant videos. Thank you so much
Thanks for the kind words. Glad you're enjoying them.
Ian, I know you aren’t a teacher because they don’t own Ferraris, but you would be a Star Teacher if you were.
Thank you so much. These videos, along with your insights, are invaluable!
Glad you like them!
Fun to watch Ian- your videos are a perfect escape👍
Glad you like them. They're an escape for me to shoot, too. Please subscribe if you haven't already. Lots more to come...
Enjoyed watching, giving me a great insight to the internals as I've not had to strip my friends 2056 that far, enjoy the journey of building it up and hope you never have to see the inside again 😉👍
Glad you enjoyed. I'm definitely learning a lot. Wait till you see the next episode ;)
Another great vid Ian, thank you.
Thanks 👍
Great Job Ian. I enjoyed!!!
Thank you kindly!
So helpfull, hopento start building my engine soon...!
Go for it...
Thanks Ian Great Video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love your videos!
Thank you!
👍 Great job.
Thanks 👍
Ian , Hi. Hey dude you are a straight up guy. I am presently doing same build in sunny England !!!!!!
Thanks Ruby. Hope you're having fun across the pond!
Great video! funny story, when I was in the Marines in the late 90's I actually rebuilt the engine for my 65 Beetle IN my barracks room..
Were you able to bounce a quarter off it? ;). Thanks for your service!
@@IanKarr I remember there was grease all over the carpet. The engine ran well for a while, unfortunately another Marine had told me to leave off the sheet metal, that the engine ran cooler without it.. We know how that ended..
How long has it taken to acquire all of the parts / get everything machined, etc..
@@stevenhenry8743 I've been at it for about 3 months now.
On all Bosch distributors there is a cut slot on distributor surface where the cap meets and that is number one cylinder.. Good video. Have had many of these type 4 motors apart. May have to do my own 2 litre soon,at least a reseal.
Thanks, Nick. Good luck with your build!
Hey Ian, another great video! I have a 1.7 in my 914, but now I have a good 2.0 crank so I will start accumulating more parts to do a 2056. This video gets me motivated! I noticed you used oil on the bearings vs. assembly lube. Did you want it to be lighter viscosity?
Thanks. I did use oil...as Jake recommends in his video. Full disclosure...I went back and used assembly lube after I shot this because the engine will likely sit for a while before starting. It's amazing how much stickier that stuff is.
@@IanKarr I agree assembly lube is ideal if the engine is left for a while, and it's always a funky colour, but for a engine being started 'soon' engine oil is spot on
@@CrispysProjects Thanks Crispy. Congrats on your channel. I subscribed...
Thanks alot! What size are the main and con bearing's inside and outside
Hi Allan. I don't have that data handy. I had the machine shop get the bearings sorted.
Hi ian - I’m following you’re vides as I build my 914 1.7l as a first build.
Today I started and really struggled with the distributor install. Does the base of the clamp sit flush against the case when it’s proper ally seated or is there a gap? I must have installed it 10 times and as far as I can tell it’s seated (rotor turns when the crank moves) but it didn’t have a satisfactory seating - also, did you use the small spring between the shaft and the distributor? I couldnt see it in the video - and your two ends met as you pressed it all into the case, whereas the spring pushes mine off and makes its difficult to be sure to two shafts are seated right…
Hi Ian (great name btw). Yes, the clamp sits flush against the case (or very nearly so). And yes, I do run the spring under the distributor. I forgot to put it in when I made the video. Good eye! The trick with the spring is to put a dab of grease on the bottom so it stays where it should. Not sure how/why your dizzy isn't seating properly. Have you made sure it's oriented properly? The bottom of the dizzy only fits one way into the drive gear.
@@IanKarr cheers Ian for the reply - yeah it’s all orientated correctly - I’m going to try the install again with a replacement distributor as The one That came on the engine is a cheap knockoff - do you have any recommendations of which distributors to run on this engine (1700cc)- the more I research them the less certain I am, as is often the way
Love your videos! Do mechanics take as much time with detail as you do? I want you to do my engine!😀😀😀
Thanks, Gregory... but Let’s make sure mine runs first :)
I would hope many mechanics do take the time, most of the one's I know do👍
@@CrispysProjects I love your channel also. Keep up the good work
@@mrGregorygchin really appreciated Gregory, we're all loving sharing the experience of these brilliant vehicles
Ian: Did you purchase the Crankshaft fully assembled (Fully reconditioned and balanced, with Connecting Rods, Distributor Gear, etc.)? If so, from which Vendor? If not and you purchased components separately, which Vendor then assembled everything? (Great help to have it already assembled). Appreciate your advice so thank you in advance.
My existing crank and rods were in great shape. I had the crank evaluated, balanced and polished by Westchester Machine in Tarrytown NY. Jorge at European Motor Works installed new rod bearings. Good luck with your build!
@@IanKarr Thank you Ian. Say, what is your Paypal email address? Also, have you filmed the episode where you install the EFI system (assuming the stock D-Jet) and complete the break-in engine run?
Hi! I was wondering wich camshaft do you use? I have a 1800cc dual carb and I’m looking keep it as stock as possible… And it’s seems difficult to find.. Thanks
I installed a 9590 from LN engineering
What are the specs on the cam lift duration
It's the 9590 from webcam. I don't have the card handy, but I'm sure they'll send you the info...
Can you tell me how much this build cost you? Thank you nice job
Including all parts, the heads and machining, it was about 6K. Not including my time, tho ;)
Ian, I think you forgot to put in the lifters before dropping in the camshaft.... Great video though - thank you for your effort!
Thanks, Michael. Hmm. I believe the lifters should go in after the short block is assembled. Otherwise the ones on the right side would fall out...And the ones on the left can only go in after the case is assembled. No?
@@IanKarr Ian you are right.. Type 4 goes in after the halves are together. The Type 1, 2,3 have to go in first, along with the pushrod tubes. Keep trucking you are almost there!
R. Arabian thanks rob.
@@IanKarr woops, my bad. Type 4, not Type 1. Shoulda known🤦♂️
S’good!
thx
Ian, I might have missed something when you installed the distributor, did you put in that nasty little spring between the gear and the end of the distributor? I know your distributor snapped in with ease. With spring it wasn't so easy. Love your videos...Gary
Ya know...I can't remember if I put the spring in! Guess I gotta pull it now...
