    I worked at a small machine shop in Colorado Springs. The owner (83 year old man) was equally meticulous as you are. I tore down and hot tanked parts. Then spend a hour going through every passage way, and bolt hole with a brush. I really learned a lot from Lambert. Cleanliness, and precision are a the key to long lasting engines.

    Did you do full engine assembly as well? I love working on cars as a hobby and would love to build my own motor one day. I’m comfortable with doing just about anything other than bottom end teardown and rebuild. There’s so many little nuances you have to know when putting together an engine if you want longevity. How would you suggest learning without having to go to school or changing careers?

    @@sethbrown5856 Honestly, I did all of the tear down on the engine block, and cylinder heads. I did a lot of magna fluxing, and pressure checking heads. I moved up to milling, and assembling heads. I did however completely rebuild a couple of Onan (in a John Deer rider mower). Plus a few old D Series John Deer engines. Almost all of our engine assembly was completed by the Senior builder who was a HUGE Volkswagen enthusiast.

    I've been told by mechanics for years all rings spin untell they seat . Not mine . Lacker thinner clean the piston spotless. Face the rings 💍 where you want them . The object is so that any oil pulled up is on the torque side of the piston and chlender . Pin the rings in place in the middle of the ring with hy temp . First and second ring . No blow by at 200,000 miles engin will pull 24 inches mercury vacume . Crank case and chlenders totally sealed from each other . And by the way why do you rebuild it all without gapless rings made in Colorado Perfect Circle rings .??? .!

But with this type of Operation, if I started at the bottom I would be cool with it because of all the interesting repairs going on. I'm not a truck guy, but I did actually work at a truck shop where we did lift kits every single day! I got stuck doing alignments...Let me tell you , I can align ANY lifted truck, jeep , and or rock crawler! Metal Cloak, Terraflex and Rough Country were the brands we saw and used in the shop. Great experience, but at 5'7 doing a set of 37" tires and lower control arms and lift kit, everyday was very tiring to say the least. But I loved it! Shout out to the Jeep named "Justified" ! Great Build by the owner!

    ​@@WilC379Honestly if those electronics are built properly they shouldn't be going out for the life of the vehicle. Despite what manufacturers seem to believe now, circuitboards do not currently have parts that should be experiencing wear if they have components chosen to spec for the job. If something on a board breaks, a capacitor for example, its because some pencil pushing dickhead decided it's ok to use the peak ratings as the standard measure for component grade... Demand recalls of parts like that, they are lemons, and dont let cheapass manufacturers trick you into thinking otherwise.

    Great showman, and as an engine builder, I can appreciate this, but when we do engines we clean every speck out of every surface of that block for a good foundation for final assembly when all the machining and cleaning is done. Additionally, I still block off some passages that are difficult to clean or hard to brush out because a Good machinist and engine builders take this to the next level so they don’t have to worry about it… Keep on rocking

    Agreed, just blowing out and brushing every hole is not a reliable means to clean out every last contaminant. I would be willing to bet he has left a few beads in every engine that were thankfully caught in the oil filter or ground up and caused damage that was not sever enough to kill the engine though obviously shortened it's lifespan.

    Some years ago (I say 1979) a friend needed a small block rebuild. The friend was not a mechanic, he was a tree surgeon but he insisted on doing his own rebuild. We had access to a shop with a bead blaster. I don't recall the exact medium used but it was "bad" enough. The friend wanted to paint the cylinder heads up all nice. He used the bead blaster to clean the outside of the heads. OK, the time came to fire the engine up. It started immediately but died immediately. I spent a hour trying to get it to fire up. I came to the conclusion it had zero compression. I oiled up all the cylinders and sure enough it fired up and ran fine, for a while. After about 3 weeks the engine developed what sounded like a rod knock but then did not sound like a rod knock. After some more weeks the engine developed low oil pressure and a definite rod knock. Engine was torn down. Every bearing in the engine was destroyed. Even the cam bearings. The guy did not was the bead blast medium out of the cylinder head ports. Destroyed a new engine.
