I’ve now got that engine as my screen saver on my phone thanks guys 👍🏼 brilliant vid as always

That cosworth looks stunning,hope it goes as good as it looks

Wow, fantastic walk around on the Cosworth build! So many would just slap the oil pump straight in, so your attention to those details is great to see 🙂

Cheers Lee, I like that Vacuum Tester, handy peice of kit.

Love that Cossie motor, looked superb

Brilliant 👍👍

That engine looks so mint 😍

Gorgeous engine mate!

Enjoyed that

I like these videos. no doom and gloom like usual.

Those cosworth engines look fantastic don’t they

That Cozy is a very pretty engine.

Hey Lee, looks really good. Looking at the cam gears reminds me of a couple of things. First, how some Euro vehicles do not use guide pins for the cam gears, also ford with the Z-Tech engines. Had a guy freak out at seeing that when he decided to change a friends T Belt, after he calmed down, I brought him the tools, piece of cake, "just remember to take the crank stop out" 😂😂. Also my Dads '64 XKE, the 4.2 had Vernier Cam gears, and if I am not mistaken they were adjustable at one degree, so that meant there were 360 serrations on the gear, my dad was confused 😕😕 Fortunately I read the manual 😆😆 Oh yeah, and what about that "Centralizing the Jet" and the "British Standard" size on the jet nut, in the SU's?? Oh and while I am on about it, Lucas printing numbers on the wiring, and ALL of the wires are white, and the numbers have disappeared, and the positive "earth" idea, and ..........................................................

Thanks Lee! Go out and have a Deluxe day!

A mug of tea, a biscuit, and Lee in full "this is how we do it" mode. Lovely.

Super!

you always do such a great job! very very impressive!

Cosworth guddle drawer mighty fine .

No news on the oil cooler problem on the Volvo?

a mechanic and engine builder are two very different things. I'm not saying a mechanic can't build an engine and it run, I'm saying an engine builder will know things a mechanic doesn't, like knowing from experience the best rods and pistons through trial and error. a builder might change tolerances because they had more success doing it that way. not from hearsay or word of mouth, through trial and error. love your videos mate, keep them coming. i appreciate them and u.

Hi Lee, I work in the fuel industry, and I agree heldite is a great product. However, we cannot use it anymore as modern fuels break it down, if you have any concerns like that, an excellent jointing compound is a product called “gasolia”

Hi lee.....i know lee w who owns that engine, he lives about 5 minutes from me.

🤘😎🤘

Lee, hello from Oz, first up let me say I'm thoroughly enjoying the engineering deep dive into the finer details of performance engine machining/rebuilding. A question re; Cosworth under piston cooling jets, as a way of mitigating piston crown heat, I am fitting under piston oil cooling jets to an engine that is undergoing a power output upgrade, (nothing to radical) the engine didn't originally have these fitted, should I be concerned with the piston oil ring drain holes being flooded and possibly flooding the oil drain holes or preventing the oil from freely draining from behind the oil rings into the piston underside? Possibly inducing an oil burning situation? Or could I be over thinking this? your thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Cheers , Glenn. DownUnder .

Im running a 3door cosworth in south of spain ,1.8 bar boost and 8000rpm redline, what oil would you recomend? Im currently using 10/40

Just see you set up first then thread locked on final assembly.

Having valves seated at differing depths surely changes the compression ratios between cylinders and power distribution. Why not renew the worn seat; surely better seat all to the same depth?

Lee your knowledge is priceless, a showcase to british engineering

Can’t wait for the video where it all goes wrong again 😅😅

Just a quick comment not picking and there may be a reason,but why do all the valves and seats and test then skim the head,why not skim the head and If its badly worn and won't face you then need a new head and won't need to do the valves,excellent video though..

Lee, I’m starting to enjoy the second channel, you come on camera all blood smiles E30 parts to show off. I understand it’s a clone but what makes yours not an E30, M3, is the engine correct, I imagine it the suspension? My vote is orange, you need to stand out.

Think we're gonna hear news of expansion or a move to another property in the future 😂

Ta!

Love the videos, you have a spelling mistake in the title. Should say properly not property 😂

awesome typo don't correct it and see how many complain

just a quick question:- where's Mr Issac these days????

What is a genuine Ford oil filter? Ford don’t make filters…

Property or properly lol
