Thanks for taking the time to slow the process down and breaking it into a few videos for us.
Its pretty informative stuff, much better than just glossing over the fact you had to tear down half the engine to do valve springs and oil pump gears!

Can you put the back ground music down when people are talking please

[krispykruzer]

Everytime I watch an engine rebuild video, I tell myself this knowledge and skillset CANNOT die...
Beautiful to watch man and machine both coming together

Lol! The shifter through the sump was gold!

[jamesblanton]

"SBT" Scotty Barra Taylor, haha, ya'll gave me a giggle when you lifted the thingimy bob off and up came the hand with the adjustable shifter. I love this long standing adjustable shifter joke, keep up the awesome and entertaining work you blokes, coz we all are loving it. Oh have you met Billy Bob Budget who helps out the haulass garage boys occasionally ?

Good job, looks like you are shaving down the project load and getting closer to play time

[asjmpickle]

love the work scotty so glad streetmachine let you take this and run with it.

For people doing this at home, one mistake he made which caused him some trouble was the screws on the oil pump gears, your best to get an impact are a driver and tap the screw whilst winding out, also when turning the cams to put timing chain back on don't turn them with the bolts on the front, use the correct size spanner on the big casting bosses on the front of the vct mechanisms to ensure you don't snap or overtighten the bolts.

Finally a you tube engine build video where the head studs are put in after the head is laid in place. Makes life so much easier.

Good work Scotty. Though why you wouldn't put in bigger bump sticks in while playing in the weeds still suprises me ;)

[RAYtheram]

Good video, keen for more valiant wagon videos

[Benjay]

another amazing video, outstanding Scotty!

[cliffharrington]

Brilliant, best video I have seen for illustrating timing chain set up, showing the crank trigger wheel removed really helped me set my timing chain up properly after changing a blown head gasket. I still have to find out why the twin fans only work when the air con is on, I'm picking the CHT (cylinder head temperature) sensor may be faulty, but the temperature gauge operates so I'm not sure. May be the something else.

[DodgyBrothersEngineering]

lol you nearly have gave me a heart attack. Whizzing down the head studs... Phew thank goodness he back them off.
