This is gonna be one of the best you’ve ever done. Couldn’t believe this was an hour and a half gone so informative. You’re so passionate people that get an engine built by you now understand why they have to wait and what goes into it. Brilliant video keep them coming love the channel brilliant brilliant brilliant brilliant

Great watch, look back when measuring with the micrometre the reading was 82.42 you then say 82.2 the next measurement was 82.45 and the last measure being 82.449, therefore the micrometre was not as far out. I have no experience, I enjoy the channel, I maybe wrong but that's what I heard... cheers all

That’s the difference between a proper engine builder that knows what he’s doing and is educated, Then these other KZread Channels that build a engine so shall I say throw a engine together! Great work Rickey! Would love to come round to your garage and a look around

Built the odd 2 stroke bike engine in my youth but every day's a school day , really enjoyed seeing how a professional does it properly and what's involved , great channel.

As your a thinking Man there is actually one further tip i can give you on ring gap positions😉 Put that top ring gap at the exhaust valve side of the cylinder as that gap will have slightly less exposure to high temp/pressure combustion gasses. Unfortunatly for most 2 valve cylinder Headed Engines only as 4 Valve motors have the valves across the cylinder.

I love the level of detail in your builds and the care taken. Totally 100% agree with you on measuring equipment too, as I’m from an engineering background being a qualified toolmaker/CNC programmer/operator with 40 years in the trade and still at it. I knew who you meant about the McLaren builds too. I know exactly who I would have build me an engine 👍

this should be a tafe/college video that all apprentices should watch to show the importance it is to know your trade when engine rebuilding

Glad I stayed till the end, as I do love a toolbox tour!

Brilliant video, learned so much👍

Thanks for sharing your knowledge with the rest of us! Jolly good

Thank you so much for taking the time to produce that video. Found it really interesting. Amazing to see the detail and the level what has gone to to produce these engines.

Watched it twice. Fascinating engineering content.

Absolutely quality 👌 thoroughly enjoyed.

Wow, the level of detail and great explanations of how you set out and why you do what you do is fascinating, my head jas just gone BOOM 🤯. Top job 👏

This is really quality content. Built my first engine last winter, not to the same nth degree and measurement of here but for a first engine, was quite happy with the process

Wow ! Never knew there was SO much involved just on the piston side of an engine build, really interesting science lesson with man like Ricky !

Thank you for the training Prof. Rick!

Great info, more of these please! Cheers, Doug

FANTASTIC!

I love these videos - they teach me how much I don’t know about engines :-)
