Thanks for the reply, cheers!
Great job on the restoration of the trawler , keep up the good fight soon you'll be flying across the waves !
Thanks Greg!
The Detroit looks beautiful!!
Thanks mate.
Wicked! Really nice looking rebuild. Thanks for taking the time to send out the video. I really enjoy watching your projects come to light.I look forward to seeing your next video. Cheers.
Great day for sure Stu, Eddie has never had a bad day while being with you, dogs always make the best out of anything. I know no matter what happens my dog always has a great time. Looking great, best of luck with the installation. Jeff in LA USA
I am a old Detroit mechanic and you did reel good.
Awesome, you going to have a very dependable boat
Yes, reliability is very important to me for the offshore trips.
Looking good Stu! Shame about the beer, my condolences to you and your shop mates.
I’m so excited for you! Can’t wait to see you put that back in and the adventures begin.
Really pleased to see the 4-71 back again! Looking beautiful in a fresh coat of alpine green. Remember low ash SAE 40 only, no 15w40 please!
Two things stood out on this episode ,one ,are you sure that's the same workshop that you had to climb through with a compass and a translator to get to anything ,and two it's so nice to see you've come in from the dark side and are now drinking forex gold and not coopers ,thanks for all the work keeping us entertained ,cheers.
Looks great, looks new!
Good luck, may all the bolts fit and torque down first try, may your sockets all fit and new gaskets seal first go and remember its tea before the build and beer after.
Thanks mate! :)
Much more rewarding than just buying a new out the crate lump. Old oiler back in the world of the living. Love it!!
Sweet-There is no better feeling then getting your motor back knowing that it was done correctly!
For sure, it is going to be nice to be able to trust it.
You're right, it is never cheap to do the job right but it is worth it.
Something about the old motors that have a real romance about them .
4X - good job eddy
So nice to have all the parts and pieces back looking new so it's a pleasure to install everything clean so you don't look like someone dragged you through an oil filled bilge at the end of the day.
Great Stu. Coming together nicely.
Congratulations, that is major step forward, your hard work is starting to pay off
You have a lot of work ahead of you I will be praying for you
Congrats Stu, the Green Monster has returned!!!!! Thats gonna make a fine engine for the boat that you will get many years of service out of!!!!
Stuey Stuey Stuey! Great news! That engine looks sweet, those guys have a great job of things by the looks of it and the fella with the gear box, can’t wait for the next vid mate I think you’ve earned yourself a coopers..... or two🍻 really good to see it back in the shop. It’s funny how you get that feel good feeling from things your doing on the other side of the world👍🏴
Thanks mate. I can't wait to start getting this thing back together either.
The rebuild ability of real diesels like this ,ford Lehman , Cummings and the like is so different from some modern lighter weight diesels. Looking forward to your build up. Cheers Warren
good luck sport keep off the fosters till complete
That is a great paint job. It make all the difference . And it’s amazing they got the colour right and gave you a spare spray can.
Now I can back to TV and Watch the movie Australia on 7 fix’s now in Melbourne Australia
I just realise that Stu looks like THE DROVER !
Thanks mate. I actually gave them a box of paint cans then took the leftover ones back. Now to paint the gearbox!
That engine is pretty!
Great to see that the engine is back.
Yahooee half the country is excited about this older noisse diesel engine, looking forward to seeing that working now I will watch the video. Have fun.
Half the world...!
When you have a Detroit 2 stroke you have the sound that lets people know, you have a Detroit 2 stroke! It's the best.
Yep it's right there with two 454's and no lift muffler's !
They roar with the sound like if you shoved a boiling hot
Potato up a T-rex's ass!!!
Takes fuel and turns it into noise lol

DD puke green ! Love that color !
Thanks for making all the videos. I've learned some things and been entertained at the same time. G'day from USA.
You're welcome mate. :)
There is no doubt that cruising in a sound hull with reliable diesel motor & 'jolly boating weather', makes Jack a happy mariner. Great to see the progress you are making.
Great video mate. Can't wautbto see the gear box/ancileries going on. And ...... First start.
Congratulations my friend 👍🏾
Eddy is a show stealer...
The 4/71 is good too !
We've all been waiting with you , when I saw the title I punched the air and shouted YES before Ive even seen the video. You must have the most genuine follower base of all the youtubers and its because of You !! Cant wait for the next installment.
Great as usual. I very much appreciate these videos.
Thanks Andrew.
Eels Fans...nothing at all. I like em before watching them too cuz I always know Stu's vids rock! Engine looks great. Hope it runs just as great. Can't wait to see the reassemble/reinstall vids. Thanks again for another awesome vid. See ya in the next one.
That's Pontiac blue. Nice color
i'm quite confident that your engine will last you for ever with this rebuild you did, awesome to see the workhorse of a boat come back in such condition, congratulations mate keep it up
Thanks mate. I think it will give me many years of reliable service.
Love the colour
Being back in the shop....seems just like old times!
Had a 6/71 in a motor grader with a 4 foot long muffler- silent...... 4/71 straight pipe in a Log Skidder that would make your ears ring .... what I love about these engines is the lack of low end power .... breaks less parts
Nice all around. I have been watching for quite a while. I have been a Marine mechanic for 30 years in Wisconsin. Nice Video Series and Damn Nice Boat and Engine. Enjoy and Good Karma.
Nice beer keg gas tanks at 1:06
Love the re-purposed beer barrels. The Bus Grease Monkey on YT is an authority on older Detroit diesels. I'm sure you could find something useful on his channel.
Best of luck with putting it together.
Thanks for the video.
Yes, already picked his brains while I was in the US th-cam.com/video/-6JG6_j_zeU/w-d-xo.html
Looking good from here in the USA....
Wow thats a thorough rebuild..shell last you a lifetime now congrats🤙and remember if that gm isnt leaking oil after you break it in.then they didnt rebuild it right! Lol
It’s going to be nice for you guys to have a newly rebuilt engine and gearbox. It’ll be piece of mind while under way. Nice work by the machine shop!
The diesel and the old shop returns! Love it.
Mine head work just be filled with so many things to do to get that engine installed
Congratulations and it looks good
Eddie is happy to go lol
The Green Leaker returns! And they don't call them Driptroit Diesels for nothing. Like Bus Grease Monkey says " If you hung a picture of one on the wall there would be a puddle of oil underneath". On a more positive note, they do use two stroke diesels in the largest supertankers and mega container ships.
The most critical part after assembly is to make sure you have FULL travel on the rack for injectors, make sure it goes to fully NO fuel position and also FULL rack position and that you have control from governor assembly, remove valve cover for 1st start, may want to put vice grips on rack tube until you have made sure shut down works , set idle and set top speed (rpm) . If governor and rack not correct, will lose engine in seconds
there is just something about a freshly rebuilt engine with new paint that makes a guy's heart sing... That 4-71 is a beauty...!
Thank God it’s back. Wish I knew a bit more about Detroits, I’d hop a plane and be down there to help today.
I'm sure that by now, someone will have called to offer help Stu. Assuming, of course, all the beer is now stored above Eddie. Just be careful to only say yes to ONE of them. Retired Detroit mechanics do love beer.
Can't wait to see it run.
I’m getting excited just looking at it. I remember getting my rebuilt 350 back and was super pumped to put it all together. Right on! Every video is very exciting. Can’t wait to have it drop into the boat and fire that thing up!!!
Wow that engine certainly looks the part!
New question to ask ever video!
When's it going in the boat?
It's not going in the boat, I don't want to get it dirty. ;)
@ Dangar Marine ; Rolling on the floor and laughing my ass off at this moment...
@@DangarMarine Next video, how to turn a Detroit diesel into a coffee table.
@@DangarMarine and ur boat looks pretty also!
Haha I was about to ask that! :)
Take your time and be safe !! Stay proud! You've done so much and done it well! Carry on...
Hello Mr Danger, it must be a relief to see your rebuilt (or 'undisassembled' as our American friends would say) engine - very posh. Thanks for putting me onto Bus Grease Monkey, it's good to watch someone who doesn't just throw money at everything. Shame to see this engine and the old Gardners die. They call it progress you know. 'Progress' ? My back passage.
Excellent Stu, Glad the engine is back and looking great.
Hey Stu! I haven’t worked a lot of boat engines I have worked many, many old Detroit’s. Worked on all (27) of the NY City Transit Museum Buses. The engine will run for fifty years or more, just keep the oil clean and the fuel and oil filters changed! Run a water separator on the fuel system.
Bus Grease Monkey would be drooling to play with that clean slate motor. Looking good Stu
i especially like the milk-crate boat seats with the cushions. deluxe edition for sure!
Yes, the deluxe versions come with cushions. ;)
Wow! Love how Eddie doesn’t break step as he runs onto the boat.
He's always first in. :)
Piece of pie for a man like you Stu. Take your time mate and double check every step you take. Goodluck! Love the pup
Having a dependable motor you can count on and trust, on the water, and having that peace of mind is worth it's weight in gold...or at least worth the money spent on the rebuild. That being said, lol, always have a tool kit and an extra water pump and prop. The motor looks like new now. Congratulations!
So excited for you and for us to see it start to motor around! I hope you washed the beer cans and did not waste it.... :/
I know you’re excited! I’m looking forward to hearing it scream.
00:40 Eddie's like, "Do you see the level of respect I get around here?"
What a great feeling
Hey mate glad to see you are making headway. Hope Eddie feels better soon.
Living just a couple hours from Detroit and knowing many people who used to work on the factory lines I can tell you that you have one of the best power plants ever to leave the factories. As long as you keep up with basic maintence that thing will run forever!! Detroit Diesels are highly sought after because of their reliabilty. Like you said not cheap but you will have piece of mind when you turn that key that engine is gonna start. Good choice in getting it rebuilt properly. Like I said.....that thing will run forever and likely out live both of us.
Yes, I think it will out live me now it is done properly.
It might have been expensive Stu but there is nothing as good as a piece of mind as you head out onto the water! Can't wait to hear it roar to life, good job Stu!
For sure, reliability on the water is essential.
Congrats getting the motor back. Looks great!
That's a beauty.
old boats with milk crate seats, and beer keg gas tanks. Reminds me of my old home on Oneida Lake in New York State USA.
Looks Amazing, I am just imagining how good the green will look in the clean engine room.
So excited for you Stu! Its a great step towards the next set of adventures! Sorry to hear about the beer!
If you have the Detroit diesel manuals, you will be fine! Looking good!
You may have to invest in one of those animal enclosure with nice soft foam inside to look after the cargo and a good quality lock on the door for safety. Worst case would to be also attach GPS tracking if box accidently drops of a boat or stolen? This way your BEER will always be save and your relationship issue with Edd, "The other third, not half?" will be more pleasant in the future?
Congrats Stu! I love watching the progress of your build. The boat is looking great. Keep up the great vids!
Looking forward to the continuing series!
Killer I've been waiting to see how it turned out. Good on you
Ahh good ‘ol 4-71 driptroit you’ll know she’s broken in when she starts dripping oil in the bilge. All joking aside, now that the green jewel is going back into the case, she’ll take you to San Fran and back a few times before her next overhaul. I have to overhaul a 4-71 here soon that’s sitting in a crusty old Dynahoe backhoe. Looking forward to smelling like diesel and oil for the next month.
Nice looking engine !!
Time for engine mounts!!!
Starting that job today!
Eddie is awesome
Oh, nice. Can't wait to see it all come together!
Love your work
It looks really good, can’t wait to see it installed and running.
I was trained on GM 671 2 stroke Diesel engines, and also worked on the 4 cylinder versions. Wish I had one in my boat
Exciting! The engine is looking awesome already! Looking forward seeing you working on it. Sweet!
6-71 loud as the devil but still a thing of beauty.
