I bought a cheap Ferrari F430 with a Gated Manual Transmission. These are super rare models! Only issue is that this ferrari was an ex track day rental car and the engine and gearbox was in a thousand pieces when it got delivered. Ive now got to rebuild the car & the engine whilst keeping the whole thing cost effective!

Yeah man. Look at the look at his father’s face. He is doing this because he absolutely loves it and even more to be doing it with his son. He is 100% not doing it to have his own KZread channel. This fucking new generation. Finding problems where there are none. And always seeing things where there aren’t none to be seen. Back before you guys we used to have relationships with our fathers and family. That didn’t require validation 24/7 on social media to prove to others that we had them. The people that mattered knew how much they meant to us and vice versa. It had nothing to do with making meaningless comments on video or pictures w long texts to make ourselves feel better because we probably forgot someone “important to you” birthday or didn’t bother to call or visit him. Back then we visited. Made a point to call. To spend time with them. And that’s exactly what Matt is doing.

21:52 Hey mat, ring gaps are calculated from the bore size X factor. The factor changes depending the piston. So forged and cast pistons will require less gap a than hyper-eutectic piston. The other thing to consider when determining the factor is how the engine is destined to be used. So N/A street driven engine is different to an engine with boost. If you can’t find the torque specs you require, consider replacing the factory fasteners with new fasteners from ARP. I’ve always used the ARP’s recommend torque spec which they determine by the size of the fastener.

Typically when reusing valve springs, valves, keepers, rockers they ALL must go back in the place they came out off. Valve guides wear with the valve stem, springs have a seat pressure spec set at the factory, rockers wear a pattern on their valve tips and so on. The cams/ cam caps absolutley need to go back where they came from as they wear a pattern into the head/ lobes. Definetly try not to mix cams from head to head. Best case scenario you get away with it all and worst case you wear down that drivetrain in 10,000 miles or less. I'd be cutting my oil filters apart for next 10k looking for glitter. Hopefully all these details don't come back to bite you in the arse. I would have personally just used the assembled complete heads from the free motor you got and just sent them to a capable machine shop for a cleaning and health ck, maybe valve seals depending on miles/ kms. For ring gap you can copy the gap from your bent con rod/ piston set up. Take the rings off it and insert em into the block you didn't hone. If it's all stock unmodified parts (stock bore) the gap reading should be the same. Ring gaps aren't something that wears with use. As for torque specs on critical things like rods, heads, mains i would absolutely not F around. Pay a hacker to dig into Rarris network if ya have to but do not guess trq specs or sequences on critical parts. While you have the block apart I'd also invest in a proper bore gauge and measure each bore top and bottom to make sure the bores aren't out of spec needing oversized rings. Your dad was moving too slow (up and down) with that hone fyi. A compression check of all cylinders before firing up the engine should tell you how well you put the thing back together. Best of luck! and i'll have the popcorn out watching this build unfold! edit: forgot to mention the obvious but absolutley do not forget to put the straighest of straight edges in your arsenal on both heads and block sealing surfaces before bolting em together. use a flash light from one side and look for ANY light coming through the other. you have no clue why that engine was taken apart and if the track guys overheated it aluminum heads tend to warp if you even look at them the wrong way.

There is not a great NEED for folks to understand things now as so much is just disposable or all done by the workshop, however even if you are never going to use a spanner it is good to have a basic understanding of how things work. Cracking channel great work, a true inspiration. Well done to ALL of you.

Mat, don't bin the "bad" crank, it can be reground and use with thicker bearings. As long as it's straight it's good. Cylinders should have a 45° crosshatch honed into them, not be nice and smooth.

Love the build Mat. Just one thing I noticed from the video (you mightve not shown it), make sure that when you are honing the cylinders, that you move up and down quickly with the tool that your dad was using. You want adequate cross-hatching so that when you install the pistons, the piston rings grab against the wall adequately and give you the proper compression and no oil goes into combustion chamber during operation. Cheers.

You can’t just hone the cylinders. You have to crosshatch the cylinders with either a hone or a glaze breaker ball hone. If you don’t the rings will not seat properly. The car is looking good and nice job on the valves.

Torque is usually based on what size fasteners is used. If Ferrari won't give torque specs maybe check with ARP fasteners what is recommended torque specs on specific fasteners they might be able to help you!
As you're using different conrods pistons and crankshaft, you should get this balanced before you assemble it together!

@@HotTacticalBoyfriendOfficialext time someone tells you this, ask them how they thight a bolt with a left thread... you should probably not loosen a bolt that has been tightened to let's say 200 Nm with a torque wrench set to 50Nm. It probably has to do with what kind of torque wrench you work. Some huse a spring, that presses a square part (like a cube) against another flat surface inside the handle. Think of it like when you hold two squares of wood and clamp another one between them, you can now turn them without them falling apart. As long as the force of the two outer blocks pressing on the center block is higher than the resistance that would be applied to the center one, it won't fall out. Thats what makes the clicking noise in a torque wrench, its when the torque is higher than the pressure applied by the spring on the square part, and the square part flips/ tips over. Excessive load on the flipping square surely isn't the best thing, but if you set the torque wremch high enough the pressure of the spring will be higher and as the torque and it wont flip/ tilt. Probably not the best explaining but I tried :)

You all have to remember that what it's all about is to create content for YT. There is no need for correct honing the cylinders because this car will never drive a lot. And the question for the torque specs is just to get the comments going for a higher YT ranking. Freddy's engine is just for crosslinks and more value on the video and it makes the repair cheaper of course. So the production cost for the video series stays low for higher earnings. And often there are "mistakes" in the videos (e.g. the cylinder honing) just to make you write a comment about that. It's all about the YT algorithm to make this more valuable. But whatever... It's fun to watch the videos and that's what it's about to me.

Interesante, divertido, lleno de buenas vibraciones a pesar de todo el trabajo y del increíble gasto en repuestos. Deseando ver ya el siguiente episodio. Mucha suerte Matt.
Really pleased to see another video already, well done to Mat and the team for getting this out, I’ve decided to put my money where my mouth is and bought a mystery box from the store. So much crap content on YT sometimes, many “bigger” channels could learn from you.
Nice work Matt - hack for lapping valves! Instead of rolling the stick between your hands (correct method), attach a drill to the end of the valve stem like you would a drill bit, apply some paste to the valve seat and allow the drill to rotate whilst pulling the valve backwards and forwards. I've done this many times and it saves hours - care is still needed.
Can't wait to see what's next! So excited. Also, I live the relationship you have with your dad. He's a genius. Treasure him.
Great episode, amazing pace seeing progression!! Your dad’s knowledge is on point. Respect to all the team great channel guys.
Matt. I would love to work on those cars. I’m from South Africa and now in the uk and seeing this reminds me of my brothers and I fixing and replacing our own cars engines. Keep up the content mate. Love it.
You're so lucky to have this time with your Dad. I would give anything for times like this with my pops, but I'll have to wait for the next life for that. Please cherish these times, life is short. Bless you guy's...🙏
Matt your doing an excellent job on your cars, and showing ppl how easy it is to build/ repair them … Respect bro👍👍👍
I love all the detail you go into and the diagrams/videos. Nothing better than learning and being entertained at the same time. Fan from NY, USA
Mat your dad is amazing in what he does! And I love the realationship you both have!!❤
I learned a lot this evening!!! Thank you! I love seeing you and your Dad working together!!! He has an awesome laugh!
New channel subscriber. Love the pace and how you explain everything so well and simply! Looking forward to seeing this project progress 👍🏻
Man , you are the youtuber that always put a smile on my face, love your energy, the work you put with your mates, the amazing relationship with your dad. Keep the good work.
Love the collaboration you have with your Dad in these builds, meticulous work as always. First class!
15:43 I reccomend to check for valve leaking before putting it back in, if some valves are still leaking better repair it now (like replace the seats or cut them) than end with not perfect engine! Also I think many workshop will repair the old crankshaft so it still holds some value, ferrari crank is pretty expensive I guess.
Absolutely love the craic between you an your old man he's a very knowledgeable bloke I can't wait to see this finished mat
Love the way Mat and his dad help each other with every rebuild 🙌🏾🙌🏾
The F430 has always been on my list of unobtainable dream cars, so nice to see you make videos about it
I've found your channel a few weeks ago, and I'm totally addicted. Keep up the good work, you are making really entertaining and useful videos!
No joke. This has to be the best mix between entertainment, visually great looking and interesting engine rebuild i have seen on KZread.
I love seeing Matt and his Dad working together 👍
I’ll print the brackets for you Matt ! Let me know what you need. 👍🏼 as for the torque specs, find them out from Maserati or another engine with similar spec and power etc. they’ll be be similar so that’ll be fine. 👍🏼
Can’t wait to see this built loving the detailed build and your dads input is incredible 🙌
Love the show man. The energy is fantastic and your builds are absolutely amazing. Keep it going brother and I look forward to the Ferrari completion and the Morcielago. Thank you for your videos….
Yeah finally a Ferrari!😍 I'm so glad there's a new rebuilding video online! I've tried to watch other channels looked similar but your videos are so much more fun to watch!! Greetings from Holland and keep us posted!! (sorry for the poor english writing)

A bot stole your comment and now it's a top comment, Mat replied to it saying "Awesome! Thank you!" Also your English is completely fine, only a few minor grammatical mistakes, don't apologise!
My favourite car project of yours so far. Can't wait for it to be finished and see the majestic result.
So impressed that with your Dad's help you are building the engine yourselves. So many others would have sent it off to an engine builder!
WOW! That detail job really brought life back into this Rarri!
Hey just as a note before you slap the engine back together. After using the hone on the cylinder walls it’s a good idea to run a dingle Berry hone through it (that’s what we call it, kind of looks like a bottle brush) it’ll give you the cross hatch you need on the cylinder walls. Super smooth is not the desired effect, I’m no professional. So take this with a grain of salt 👍🏼

You need to deglaze the bores
Matt, there is a place called ‘sticky plastics’ near Middlesbrough that can make all your interior buttons and panels like new again, a hell of a lot cheaper than replacing them too.
Your dad is an absolute legend. Watching you both together is magical. It does make me miss my dad who passed away recently. 😢 Keep the great videos coming, you are nailing it Matt. 👌

This is such a great project! Regarding the valve stem seals, you should grease them and put a protective sleeve on the valve stem when installing. The valve goes into the guide, then you put the seal onto the valve stem. The recesses in the valve stem can cut the valve stem seal. Hope yours are fine because it's a big job to redo. Did you check the heads for plane?
I love all this engine work! You and your dad work so well together 😁
