Master of masters, what brand of rings do you recommend, or some link where I can find a good quality brand, it is for Mexico. It is for the N63B44B engine
i have watched so many over the last 5 years and i have to agree with you. I am tempted to fly him to Melbourne and get my m5 rebuilt even though nothing is wrong with it lol.... or i might get my car sent to him.
Hello sir, I have a question. When the cylinder liners are ringed, is it advisable to rectify them or does that damage the material of the cylinder liners?

I like using Goetze rings when sleeving the block however they are not available for the stock BMW ALUSIL block - Unfortunately we are using Chinese/aftermarket parts on this build (video) and there are no rings available other than the ones which come with the pistons
I didn’t really understood how to determine which way the piston is rotated. Also, shouldn’t be the conrod bolts torqued further to some angle after first torque to 75NM?
Hi, the orientation will depend on the manufacturers specifications, my comments are just to frase the fact they have to go in a certain way. BMW bolts are torqued to yield so yes, you torque them to about 20Nm plus some rotation - we are using ARP bolts in this build so they are just torqued to spec ARP recommend.
Hi, N63 and S63 are exactly the same from an assembly point of view - they vary a little bit over different year model and have different parts such as pistons, turbos, manifolds and camshafts however putting them together uses the same tools and procedures
It is still ok because the pins only seize on the piston and not on the rods. I'd say once the engine starts the clearances get in line after a few seconds however I cannot see that being good in the long run (for the whole engine)
Hi, yes the BMW OEM rings on these engines are for Alusil block and the sleeves we put in are cast Iron, so we had to buy rings for a cast iron block (similar to what was produced back in the 1980s and 90s)
Correct, the ARP are torqued to 75Nm - OEM bolts are usually torqued to 20 or 30Nm + around 70 degrees of angle - It varies according to the engine/part number you are working on

Can’t wait for the next video! ❤
Thanks, it should be out next week if time allows

Nice walk-through. Comment on piston orientation - you need to consider valvepockets also, so that intake pockets will match the intake valves…
Thanks, the valve pockets in these pistons have exactly the same depth
Much Appreciated video for the S63 plate form. This is the best video so far on TH-cam …your doing a fantastic job my friend..Thank you
Thank you very much ! That sort of feedback keeps me going 👍

Very nice step by step explanation. I really like the way you do it and and your sense for clean bits and pieces. High quality video....👍
Thank you !
Great video
Thank you very much
Congrats for all the hard work and thank you for clear explanations!! Can wait for next video and also to see videos of car running! Cheers
Thanks ! I’m looking forward for that too 🤣
Another great video. 😊 Thank you.
Thank you
great job
Thanks
What a legend
Thanks
What is the tool to install the pistons, where did you buy it?
It’s a 89mm piston ring compressor - I bought it online few years ago
@@dnl35projects Thank you very much for the information.
Thank you Professor @dnl35projects!
lol 😂 I’m glad you like it !
Hello sir, I have a question. When the cylinder liners are ringed, is it advisable to rectify them or does that damage the material of the cylinder liners?
Hi, you can sleeve the whole block if theres damage to the cylinder walls

@@dnl35projects makes sense :) thank you! Keep up the great work! :)
Super valuable content. Could you mention any differences in assembly for the N63 version to be aware of during assembly? Thanks.
Hi, N63 and S63 are exactly the same from an assembly point of view - they vary a little bit over different year model and have different parts such as pistons, turbos, manifolds and camshafts however putting them together uses the same tools and procedures
hey quick question, since the pins got seized in the piston because it was 9 degress celsius, what do you do if you wanna start the engine at -20?
It is still ok because the pins only seize on the piston and not on the rods. I'd say once the engine starts the clearances get in line after a few seconds however I cannot see that being good in the long run (for the whole engine)
Are there different ring types for a normal block vs a sleeved block? What do you use in both cases?
Hi, yes the BMW OEM rings on these engines are for Alusil block and the sleeves we put in are cast Iron, so we had to buy rings for a cast iron block (similar to what was produced back in the 1980s and 90s)
Loving this! Are these the kingtec pistons and rods or name brand stuff?
Thanks ! They are Chinese parts the car owner bought from Alibaba and we are trying to make them fit
Hi There, what are torque settings on the oem rod bolts, 75nm is for apr
Correct, the ARP are torqued to 75Nm - OEM bolts are usually torqued to 20 or 30Nm + around 70 degrees of angle - It varies according to the engine/part number you are working on
Thank you so much

can you please tell me the diameter for the compression ring tool from wiseco? thank you very much!
Hi, it’s 89mm
@@dnl35projects thank you very much!
You're equipped with a Kingtech product! I'm looking forward to the driving video! Is the quality of the product okay!?
Yes, I’m looking forward to it too ! We had to modify a few things to make them fit and they are currently working on them to make it better
@@dnl35projectsI bought the same product May I know the modifications?
We had to adjust the size of big end on conrod as it was too big
@@dnl35projectsIs it a defect in the kingtech product that the big end is large in size?
Are those piston and rods from the Chinese company kingtec racing?
Yes, I’m testing those in this build
Congrats for all the hard work and thank you for clear explanations!! Can wait for next video and also to see videos of car running! Cheers
Thanks ! I’m looking forward to see it running too - will keep you updated
Cant wait for the next episode!❤
Thanks
