I want my engine builder making vids also making the music. Time for music probably means he's not busy on come-backs lol😊 Some builders are filled up because of great work. Some you tube star engine builders are busy with 5 rich/dumb customers. 😮
Being a drummer, i cant help but appreciate your precise timming on the jam. Being a car guy, i cant help but appreciate your attention to detail on that as well. Keep it up man!
"Doesn't get more exciting that pouring concrete into a SBC"🤣 We love the "Premium content" Pete. Way better than watching a Chevette jump the Grand Canyon😂😂😂😂😂
I am at work in a Hospital. Got the notification Pete posted a new video. Sorry, patients - better not be flat lining cause I got to go learn something and listen to the tunes.
This could possibly be the coolest channel on TH-cam.. sweet ass progish grooves with an awesome guitar solo and learning how to buildhorsepowerthe right way... thanks for the video pete
56 years old been in the business for 37 years I’m sitting in my car waiting for my daughter at the park and the opening song starts …and I’m grinning ear to ear. Lol
I Care!!! Far more brain exercise here than when watching intentional destruction being wrought... ...not that I don't enjoy when some things get blowed up real good, in certain settings. Keep at it!
Brother! Is that you playing guitar?! not only are you a bad ass machine is an engine builder but a great guitar player. I would love to see more of you playing guitar bad ass!
Someone put that mess in a 460 I bought and it literally disentigrated the timing cover water ports. Excellent timing and tasteful music you are making there. Well done. I'd pay for that show
Pete I'm absolutely no expert and did this only once, but to level it out in the block I vibrated it with a sanding board with no paper of course, worked awesome.
I really like what your doing here. I think its even cooler using stock block stuff. I just like it even if it's only safe for 800hp or whatever. Your doing cool stuff in my books! We can learn something to! Thanks
I’m a new sub and man oh man am I excited to make my way over here from Cleetus’. Love your musicality! So awesome to see applying your talent to your other obvious talent/ambition.
Pete,. you rock! Noticed the 301's in your shop. How are the surrounds on the woofers holding up? I'm the Bose repair tech that repairs them. Let me know if they're in need of service! As a musician myself, I totally appreciate your talent in making your music! That's freaking great! 🤘
Hey Pete, as much as I love your videos and I do I subscribed because of your music originally but now I like both lol and your sense of humor keep on trucking buddy!
😂 Eat your heart out Clet... He's great but I'm sure Squirrel, Dr. Jackstand, and himself would try to see the real world applications of flex-seal for this. They already tried it as a head gasket! 😂
Love the music. You ever thought about a collaboration with the likes of Rat Rod Bob, Vice Grip Garage or any other talented music and car enthusiast? It'd be great for some of you to get together and talk cars and jam. Keep up the hella work. You are definitely good at doing stuff and polishing turds.
Being we have the same last name does that make us cousins 🤔🤔 which means 😲 free tunes or at least half off 😏😂.. but in all seriousness glad we have another educational TH-cam channel for us gearheads..
Seems like you could have done a couple episodes, or maybe even just incorporated Mike Finnagans name in that song. I 100% love and agree with your method on that his last deal. Love this series also!
You should have shown us ARP studs with an aftermarket girdle, curious how that "extra rigidity" tightens up the bearing clearance. It's supposed to be "stronger", but it's probably crushing the oil out of journal bearings. 🤔😳
Pete I been watching you from before cleetus before Netflix. I watch TurboJohn and saw you and he talks about you and Lyle. I love your content I love learning stuff. I am not real good at doing stuff hopefully this vidyeas can help me.
I have a technical question/observation. I've been in high end machining for the last 45 years and I've always questioned my friends that build racing engines why everything is machined off of the current position instead of from the datum points of the casting? It seems to me like the positions of the bores may, or may not be in the exact position that they should be. What if the main bearing bores are off in the "Z" direction and changes the deck height off? Or when you locate off of the bore to bore the cylinders, things might not be where they really should be. How about if the main bearing bores aren't straight to positions of the cylinder bores? Could that put torsional loads on the crank or rods? In my world we have True Positional Tolerance (TPT) to describe where everything should be and how the features relate back to datum points. Think of surfaces that everything relates back to, probably the flywheel mounting face and some dowel pin holes? Anyway, just questions that I ponder on. Your channel rocks and I look great in my RGADS shirt!
I have filled 15 or 20 blocks with several different products and found a couple things that at least to me make the job easier and the fist is a quart size squeeze bottle that I picked up at a restaurant supply store one day when I picking up large rimmed baking pans that I leave under cars that like to leave trade mark as well as mounting one to my engine stand to catch life’s little happy accident. The next one sounds weird but trust me it does help make sure you have no voids and reduce any air bubbles when filling a block and that is I vibrate the block after I have filled water passages around a hole or two. I was at a yard sale and bought a couple of those 1950/60’s hand held vibrating massagers like you see both men and women massaging their necks in old movies. I have also used small square sheet electric D/A sander. Which ever you use just remember you can over vibrate things and that is definitely a bd thing because it cause thing to separate into layers
Man Pete, you really had me on the edge of my seat during the block pouring part. The whole time I was like "That's crazy, what is he going to do next?!?!" then you completely shocked me by moving to the next hole. You can't get this kind of entertainment for even twice the price.
"Cleetus eat your heart out" lol. Actually, he's probably mowing the grass at his new airport.
Best intro song ever.
I want my engine builder making vids also making the music. Time for music probably means he's not busy on come-backs lol😊 Some builders are filled up because of great work. Some you tube star engine builders are busy with 5 rich/dumb customers. 😮
Mod motor mark intro still no1
"He's prolly trying to jump a Chevette across the Grand Canyon right now. Not me. I'm pouring concrete." That slayed me. 😂
Can we get a Playlist on Spotify...Car peeps need your Jams to crank up in the shop 💯
Fr 🤘
Surfing with an alien. Joe sach
I'm 48 old metalhead.. I get chills when I hear a person play a guitar like you do.
The fact that you took the time to make a polishing turds sign out of masking tape gets a like from me! Oh and the song is amazing too
loved the small jam out session during the line honing. Will be going through your series to see some older stuff 🤘
Great music !!!
That's cement concrete has sand and gravel in it
Being a drummer, i cant help but appreciate your precise timming on the jam. Being a car guy, i cant help but appreciate your attention to detail on that as well. Keep it up man!
"Doesn't get more exciting that pouring concrete into a SBC"🤣 We love the "Premium content" Pete. Way better than watching a Chevette jump the Grand Canyon😂😂😂😂😂
I didn't know you did your own music. Now I've got the turd polish song earworm. 😂We're polishing turds turds turds🎶
That opening song was a siren call to every Gen X out here.
I am at work in a Hospital. Got the notification Pete posted a new video. Sorry, patients - better not be flat lining cause I got to go learn something and listen to the tunes.
This is the best intro song on any TH-cam channel. ROCKS.
The little shots at old Cleeter had me cracking up.. You redeemed yourself with the jam session. Love the videos, keep them coming.
So many of these videos should have the Steve Morris "Caution You May Learn Something" warning on the video. Such great stuff.
You mean Steve Morris may learn something…..😆😆😆😆
I love the fact that you make your own time lapse music!
This could possibly be the coolest channel on TH-cam.. sweet ass progish grooves with an awesome guitar solo and learning how to buildhorsepowerthe right way... thanks for the video pete
56 years old been in the business for 37 years I’m sitting in my car waiting for my daughter at the park and the opening song starts …and I’m grinning ear to ear. Lol
You have a great sense of humor, and you playing your music during these video is cool Pete.
Wal-Mart is killing it on that music
That kiosk is 🔥!
Heck yeah! Polishing turds is awesome informative videos
Literally best music on TH-cam.
Thanks for Leroy’s connecting rod. Cool stuff.
The riff in the video of you line honing sounds like A Perfect Circle, I liked it a lot
The only channel where I will watch the real time or time laps progress of a build.
Pete,you rock! Love polishing turds. Peace
I Care!!!
Far more brain exercise here than when watching intentional destruction being wrought...
...not that I don't enjoy when some things get blowed up real good, in certain settings.
Keep at it!
Love it! Even better when you set in the video of you making the music.
You know if this machining and tuning thing doesn’t pay off…. LOL
That transition at 12:20 sounds like you are transitioning into a CKY song 👍👊🇺🇸🤘
Pete, As always, great video. Thanx for taking the time to share your expertise. Always learn something!!!!
Brother! Is that you playing guitar?!
not only are you a bad ass machine is an engine builder but a great guitar player. I would love to see more of you playing guitar bad ass!
Pete you is real good. Make sure you educate the next generation.
Appreciation for how long that took took to film/ edit
Keep doing you Pete 😆 👌
Thanks for sharing.
Peak TH-cam
Someone put that mess in a 460 I bought and it literally disentigrated the timing cover water ports.
Excellent timing and tasteful music you are making there. Well done. I'd pay for that show
Trying to jump a Chevette over the Grand Canyon. 🤣🤣🤣 I’ve been laughing at that for hours now.
Awesome use of “tape graphics” to protect against rock block in unwanted areas.
Very informative content!! And the original music is sweet!!!
Pete I'm absolutely no expert and did this only once, but to level it out in the block I vibrated it with a sanding board with no paper of course, worked awesome.
I have to say it is very entertaining watching you.. lol 😂 you got a lot of talent for sure. Thanks for sharing
I really like what your doing here.
I think its even cooler using stock block stuff. I just like it even if it's only safe for 800hp or whatever. Your doing cool stuff in my books! We can learn something to! Thanks

Nice work Pete. Love the music too !
Great video!! Cool stuff. Enjoyed watching ✌️ 😎
Like both the Rock & the Block! Sounds definitely David Gilmour influenced, and that is not a bad thing!
Coolest concrete video ever.
Now Cleetus has to jump a Chevette across the Grand Canyon to keep up! 😂🤣
Pete,. you rock! Noticed the 301's in your shop. How are the surrounds on the woofers holding up? I'm the Bose repair tech that repairs them. Let me know if they're in need of service! As a musician myself, I totally appreciate your talent in making your music! That's freaking great! 🤘
I was wondering what happened to this engine, it’s been awhile. Glad you kept the polishing turds series!
Great information , always appreciated.
I've subscribed to your channel for the music; the car stuff is a bonus
Cement is a popular topic. Cleetus had us figuring out the weight of a concrete cylinder. Bahaha!
Sounds like your secretary is on break. Love the video as usual. You put out the best engine building vids on the old utubes
Definitely can't wing out those sweet ballads of horsepowers unless you have the flowing locks of silver.. rock on Pete!! Cheers,ed
Hey Pete, as much as I love your videos and I do I subscribed because of your music originally but now I like both lol and your sense of humor keep on trucking buddy!
Love it!! Dad always said you can't polish a turd. I still try. Go heels! I am a native myself.
Love the channel dont beat yourself up over content I can watch you pour Crete all day with a jam session
love the content
always watch several times both for information and music
Wow! Pouring concrete! I had no idea!
😂 Eat your heart out Clet... He's great but I'm sure Squirrel, Dr. Jackstand, and himself would try to see the real world applications of flex-seal for this. They already tried it as a head gasket! 😂
Someone in the Finnegan vid noted Pete’s resemblance to Greg Allman. Pepper Keenan to me all day
Super interesting! Never seen the cement method used before.
Appreciate you making these awesome videos
Love the music. You ever thought about a collaboration with the likes of Rat Rod Bob, Vice Grip Garage or any other talented music and car enthusiast? It'd be great for some of you to get together and talk cars and jam.
Keep up the hella work. You are definitely good at doing stuff and polishing turds.
Thanks for another great video!
i get john petrucci vibes watching you play... keep it up dude, love the engine tech.
Always a great day when Pete uploads a new video
Thanks for the video
Hey Pete , love the music video insert !!
Greatness every time
i love the walmart music great job..... lol
Being we have the same last name does that make us cousins 🤔🤔 which means 😲 free tunes or at least half off 😏😂.. but in all seriousness glad we have another educational TH-cam channel for us gearheads..
Nothing better than watching concrete dry while polishing a turds!
Seems like you could have done a couple episodes, or maybe even just incorporated Mike Finnagans name in that song. I 100% love and agree with your method on that his last deal. Love this series also!
Awesome music!
Great content thanks for sharing. Very informative
Finnegan's boat heads and cam should be a Polishing Turds video...lol
Premium content today, lol. You coulda time lapse that Rokblok hardening.
I've never seen this. So it's great content. Am totally interested
It should be called Pete's laboratory instead of the quiet room. I get silence of the lambs vibes from it. It pours the concrete in its block. 😅
It pours the concrete in its block, or it gets the hone again.

Love it. Are you going to do some videos on the Dale truck engine for Garrett?
Who wants to watch cleaners McFarlane jump across the Grand canyon when we got Pete pouring concrete baby
YOU POLISHED THAT TURD TO DIAMOND STATUS. GOOD JOB
" MEAT "
I used Hardblock in my 72 Windsor, never saw any negative affects. It’s not street driven though.
8:52 “…what we’re doing, and why…” Thank you
People always claim to know what they’re doing, but have no idea why. That drives me crazy.
thanks for the video!

I see my buddies Rus Ghent and his dad at 1:37. Great guys.
Love the strandberg late in the video. New? I haven't seen you play that one yet I don't think.
How effective would cooling be trying to run water in a half filled block? Higher oil temps or water? Not a street able set up I'm guessing.
this song is fire
Definitely PEAK TH-cam
That song is great
Man it’s taking a long time to polish that turd, but I’m looking forward to seeing the results
