Going back to your recent polls (‘what do viewers want to see more of?’) I really enjoy these videos where folks turn to REP as a last resort. Similar to the RS3 engine teardown, where details about what other engine builders did wrong are shared.
Ricky, just wow and total respect! How you manage to heep all this going! YOY are incredible - Thank you for sharing all of this, total fan, and i hope to get a car one day that you can fix! You and your team and just BRILLIANT :)
Hi Rick, just on a side note you resemble Neil Hannon from the Devine Comedy both of you have mastered your art, well done, from a 63 year old mechanic,
So I sell Corvettes here in the US. That is a 1LT (Trim) Z51 Performance Package car. The 1LTs are junk. They don’t come with HUD, Heated seats, Ventilated seats or Heated Steering Wheel. I do suggest driving one and getting a real feel for it. It’s no Audi R8 or baby Ferrari, it is brawny American Muscle. However the C8 has some European influence. The car can take corners and handles really well for how inexpensive they are.
I’m sure the noble and the like could be stored in all that space just below your roof that never gets used but costs your business in rates or rent , just a thought , top job as usual
Hi Rick, great videos. felt i needed to comment , i build race motorcycle engines, and have been doing so for over thirty years. i would STRONGLY advise you to be very careful when using any type of media blasting to clean engine parts in a rebuild. i've had a couple of disasters with engines that customers got professionally cleaned with bead and sand blasting, after asking them not to, them insisting they were cleaned properly, and then running and dragging media from some orifices and causing lots of damage. i.e. rc30 crankmains and big end shells and pistons damaged. i know your vixen parts washer works well, i've used them myself for twenty years, but you still can't guarantee total cleanliness. would your new vapour blaster be effective without media. it makes me cringe to think of the damage possibly caused to a very valuable lambo or r8 engine. trust me, you think something is clean but theres always some blind holes in oil feed passages etc that you cant get to that catch you out. good luck !
Z Mode is for Zora Zora Arkus-Duntov (December 25, 1909 - April 21, 1996) was a Belgian-born American engineer whose work on the Chevrolet Corvette earned him the nickname "Father of the Corvette." He is sometimes erroneously referred to as the inventor of the Corvette, whereas that title belongs to Harley Earl.
If Lambo sent my engine to you to fix, would Lambo still charge me their “hourly rate” during that time it was with you? - something about outsourcing must translate on the bill, surely? - not related to anything mentioned in this vid, but something which caught my attention 🤔
I still like Karl :) I believe it might worth to talk more about my avant as soon as everything is properly done, as I would like the next owner to enjoy it from day 1
I would love to know what Knock is Well done Rikki your the tops how do you find owt in the shop of yours needs 5s badly. Them clutch baskets have a lot of machining time to produce one on CNC TURN/MILL if made from solid I would love to know machining time on them?? must be well expensive. I'm an ex CNC machinist and they look the mutts nuts. Oh and you need a week on a Beach with the Bride and chill for a bit.
My Israeli colleague was telling me they get taxed around 100% VAT on cars hence why it's not so common to see newer or luxury cars there. Then add 100%+ import duty too - that explains the million pound McLarens 😅
Just because you can sell something doesn't mean you have the knowledge to repair or fix it. How many people know these V10 engines correctly in the UK? 25 people? And how many of them have now retired? Even Ricky is nearly 40.. skills die off man this engine was designed 20 years ago.
Buying used supercar parts is sketchy at best most of the stuff I've seen is worn-out trashed junk people are trying to make some money back on after getting raped by the supercar manufacturer parts houses
Corvette c8 can be ragged on all year long and keep running without issue. On a track it will run right with a base McLaren. All for far less than half the price. Ya, totally rubbish.

Rick, you’re smashing it mate! Great to see.

It’s ok, anything that goes in the media blaster will go in the ultra sonic tank after if it’s an engine case etc.
We will be careful! 😘

Hello Please what is the correct engine compression pressure? Lamborghini Huracan Super Trofeo V 10 5.2 Thanks
Are you able to tell me how to use vcds to check the cam adjusters are working properly?🤔🤔🤔👍👍😜😜👍😜🤣
Very enjoyable as always 👍
A collaboration with Iain Tyrrell channel would be cool! Old and new Lambo stuff!

Love to see the TTRS engine build.
Quality as ever 🙌😁😎
Thank you
Motek Texas selling a locked up engine! I'd be fuming with them!
TTRS first!!👏🏻👏🏻
25% tire slip should be the target @ launch. watch a top fuel race with the stripe ( tire spin ) on the tire 25% slip is max traction.
The surface didn't look to good maybe on perfect propped surface
How does one man have so much knowledge
That looks like where the do model car speed runs in Israel touching on 200mph
If Lambo sent my engine to you to fix, would Lambo still charge me their “hourly rate” during that time it was with you? - something about outsourcing must translate on the bill, surely? - not related to anything mentioned in this vid, but something which caught my attention 🤔
I’d rather you do the TTRS please 👍🏼
my dream is to strip and rebuild engines in my retirement...This content is super.
Pole dancing and rebuilding engines is far more rewarding for an old dude.
At least the steering wheel is on the correct side lol
TTRS for me 🙂👍
I still like Karl :) I believe it might worth to talk more about my avant as soon as everything is properly done, as I would like the next owner to enjoy it from day 1
Karl is a top man 😂

The best of the best
Shelby Cobra, if you want to count that as American, the engine is, and it was built in America.
Beautiful car!!
Rs4 first. And I’d love to see Carl punished by showing servicing a C6 rs6 as I have one but live in the land of Dodson
I would like to see the RS 4 engine build tech video.
RS4 please 👍
Can we have more noble build vids plz, lol 👍
Are we going to see the Lambo builds.
Rs4 build please 🙏
TTRS please.
❤❤❤❤❤
RS4 video over TT RS Video 😂
76,649 kms on the Corvette already? Somebody likes to drive…
Can Ricky ollie the dolly?
My Israeli colleague was telling me they get taxed around 100% VAT on cars hence why it's not so common to see newer or luxury cars there. Then add 100%+ import duty too - that explains the million pound McLarens 😅
Singapore isn't far off that.
Pankl titanium conrods. Trick.
RS4 ...please
Hi. Are you the same guy from darkside developments. Diesel specialist.
No mate! We are friends with Ryan though!
Audi TT build
RS 4
Rs4 for definite
RS4.
It's scary that a Lambo dealer can't put their own cars back together correctly!
Just because you can sell something doesn't mean you have the knowledge to repair or fix it.
How many people know these V10 engines correctly in the UK? 25 people? And how many of them have now retired? Even Ricky is nearly 40.. skills die off man this engine was designed 20 years ago.
Those jews are men after my own heart: using a $300 laptop to tune $8000 of electronics 😂
RS4
That Corvette is absolutely awful!
Look at the price of the car, best bang for a dollar value.
Rs4 over the ttrs
Rs4
Buying used supercar parts is sketchy at best most of the stuff I've seen is worn-out trashed junk people are trying to make some money back on after getting raped by the supercar manufacturer parts houses
Lol doesn't look good for lambo but least they know who to go to

Ya, totally rubbish.
R.i.p to the 13800 Palestinian children killed not to mention the other 30000 plus people killed in there country
Yeah, yeah, yeah and yeah
