Hyundai Assembly 5 - Fighting The Valve Clearance
Рет қаралды 221,688
9 жыл бұрынIn previous videos I showed the 2 factors that really need to be scrutinized. Valve clearance and how you degree your camshafts. Of course we got sidetracked with plenty of other tips and tricks but I wanted to upload this video to illustrate that the process really isn't as easy as the animations, demonstrations and explanations make it look. The reasoning is sound, but the work to execute it can be very tedious.
Setting up the valvetrain on this engine was very tedious. I say "was" because following this video, we can put that whole topic to bed. This is what it took. Not many people have the patience to deal with this, and I wanted to showcase here for those who are at the peak of their frustration with their builds. This kind of stuff can happen to anyone. Let my pain and suffering help you not feel so all alone.
My apologies for the lack of new groundbreaking technical info. It's not a complicated task to install ARP head studs, and that was my plot twist. There are a couple of hurdles you may encounter depending on the production year of your engine, but they're well illustrated in this video. I'm not sure if their installation warrants a video all unto itself, but if you feel it does, speak up because I have 3 more engines to build. I can still do it.
I just wanted to demonstrate that progress is being made on this, and despite the long breaks between uploads, a LOT is going on behind the scenes. This was 20 hours of repetitive work and I hope it's at least mildly entertaining. For me, this was the most boring video I've ever edited here because I had to re-live the same steps so many times, over and over again. I could very easily have inserted an hour of it in the wrong place and nobody would ever have known because it all looks the same. The text overlays are there only so you can be aware of what's different. A voiceover would have been pointless because the techniques illustrated are discussed ad-nauseum in the Cylinder Head 205 and 206 videos. The valve cover gasket installation process was covered in "Valve Cover Modification and Polishing", and the discussion about compression ratios is explained in "Calculate Your Compression Ratio". If you like the job the parts washer did, check out my DIY parts washer video. ;)

Just today I found myself watching older videos of yours (as I often do), wondering when the next one would appear, and lo and behold here it is. I'm really loving all of this as it gives me inspiration for when I finally get to start taking serious steps to making my old Talon a monster. A complete overhaul is in order, but first I'm going to rebuild the engine next summer so these videos are providing a wealth of knowledge not included with the factory service manuals. Thanks Jafro.

When you encounter problems, you just take it on as if it were the first step and put it in reverse or whatever is necessary. I have been tried like this on a machine fix before, but you can either get frustrated or get focused! I prefer to get focused. It winds up being some of both, but getting mad will not solve the problem. It’s step by step and sometimes backwards like in this video. If they haven’t done anything like it, they won’t understand the tediousness of it! Sometimes a walk off to vent or calm down may be needed depending on your own mental limits. Rolling with the flow isn’t always easy either! Getting frustrated only makes your blood pressure go up. This video is a study in patience and focus! It shows what can and is done!👍🏻

holy crap. I searched for turbo porting videos, ended up watching your hyundai build series up to here, learning more than I could have bargained for.

I'm even on the hunt for a DSM now, or something cool like your Hyundai (and I'm a subaru guy).

Welcome aboard! The ultimate chassis IMO is the base model 92 Hyundai sCoupe. If my Elantra were a sCoupe, it would be AWD by now. The weight savings over the Colt would be worth it all by itself. There's 100lbs less glass in it, and that's just a start. Loaded, they're 2,100 lbs. They have a Lotus suspension. Less trunk, less roof, less body, shorter wheelbase... Add to that, they're unicorns now. You never see them. Nobody will know what it is. A 2g DSM sure would be a lot more comfortable, though.
@boxoftj1 6 жыл бұрын
Yeah, my initial autotrader, craiglist, ebay searches have found almost nothing, but I'll have to look into that sCoupe. DSM's are much easier to find... unless I wanted to go super crazy with fabbing up a complete swap in a 90's civic hatch. Your Colt build is definitely next on my watch list.

After pulling the heads on and off so many times, changing to ARP head studs was probably a good thing. Head bolts do have service limits, as well, even if they are not clearly spelled out in the manual. I may have also suggest using the red thread lock on the screw to the oil cap. It would suck if it fell in the motor simply because you were trying to fix an annoying leak. I look forward to seeing The Elantra run. I also look forward to more videos on the Colt. Don't get me wrong. Nothing against the Hyundai but the Colt has some serious potential, knowing you.
@Jafromobile 9 жыл бұрын
The head didn't get torqued but once. I only snugged the head bolts each time. Didn't crush the gasket until the ARP's went in. ;) The factory bolts proved themselves. They were re-used on 3 different cars first, then on this 9.8:1 setup that saw 24 PSI once. It didn't break because of a head gasket. :D Factory 12mm bolts.

Thanks man, love what you been following for a while now, 1st comment ever. I still dont fully understand the need for 1lb test springs. Any chance you explained it and I missed it? Im currently in the same process.
@Jafromobile 9 жыл бұрын
Well the 1lb spring allows you to easily remove and install the rocker arms and set zero-lash if that's something you have to do on your engine. I found that one of my test lifters worked better than the other, so being able to do that also allowed me to move my good test lifter to the next valve along with the dial gauge, etc... They turned out to be enormously convenient and I think I learned my lesson. Next time I run into a problem child like this, I'm going to buy 16 of the d*mn things, install them all at once, dye mark the pistons and only have to install/remove the head twice. 1lb vs. 100lbs x 16 valves works out much better while you're hand-turning the crank as well. :D Test springs. $2.35 for two. It's worth the $20 to buy all 16. GOOD QUESTION!

Picked up a lot of great tips here because my 2.0L FS is very similar. Timing cover and valve cover gasket issues are similar too. I honestly think my FS was designed by Mitsubishi for Mazda. Would make a lot of sense with the amount of Mitsubishi electronics in my car. My ECU even has a Mitsubishi logo on it. Lots of similarities but I would watch your videos even if there weren't.

@miquelferran6954 7 жыл бұрын
nice videos! Learning all i can to build my own engine. I have a question, do you have to check valve clearance with not to agressive cams like and stock valves?? the stock valve will fit in stock piston cut? thanks for you videos.
@Jafromobile 7 жыл бұрын
Regarding valve clearance, stock parts tend to offer more forgiveness. It's when blocks and cylinder heads get resurfaced, pistons, rods or crankshafts get replaced, or you install bigger valves and aftermarket cams that you would want to pay close attention to this. As long as the cylinder head and block are not resurfaced beyond specification and everything else is OE stock equipment, then you should be safe. In my case, the pistons, cylinder head, camshafts and valves all came from 4 completely different model cars. They should have never been used together in the same car, but we massaged them all in there. That's why this engine needed all of this extra time and effort.

@WilliamDye-willdye 9 жыл бұрын
***** I can't think of a good guess. I vaguely recall that you were disappointed in a shinier exhaust manifold a while back, and replaced it with pipes that had a lot less surface glint but worked better. Shiny is good, but I'm OK with rough surfaces on the side that has the fires of Mount Doom pouring through every 4th stroke. Heat just does that to metal unless you do some really expensive things to it. Speaking of Mount Doom and exhaust manifolds, I wonder if a material exists that: 1) could be painted on the side of metals and not fall off easily, 2) pretty much matches the color of the metal at room temperature, and 3) glows via incandescence when heated well above room temperatures. The result would be the ability to put lettering on your exhaust pipes that is only visible when the pipes are hot. I'd make the lettering in Tengwar, the same font used for the writing that's only visible when The One Ring is heated. I'd probably write: "If you can read this, get a life", but maybe someone can think of something better. It would be a good joke on those who don't notice the lettering until they happen to see the engine when it's hot. "Three rings for the... something piston something..." Nah. "One stroke to drive it all, and in the gearbox grind them." Nah. Anyway, if incandescent materials don't work out, maybe it could be done with LED lighting. Hmm. Well, it would be fun to add something like that when I finally rebuild my '91 Eclipse. The glowing lights project shouldn't take long, because, you know, it's only... while I'm in there.

Wouldn't you have to re-weigh each piston after the fly-cuts, or is it too little of material removed to make a difference? I love your videos, very entertaining and informative!
@Jafromobile 9 жыл бұрын
The ones the machine shop cut look huge, but they didn't even add .3ml to my dish volume. A gram of steel is the same amount of material used to make a paper clip. The pistons are a cast aluminum alloy, and I only had to put a nick in each side. I didn't have to cut them deeper. I put a lot of thought into that one and I knew someone would ask. Technically, yes, you should... and it's true I removed too little and too evenly to make a difference in their overall weight... but it's the Hyundai. It was as much as 4 grams out before I balanced them. It's still a huge improvement, but I just couldn't justify the time, effort and waste of mineral spirits just to confirm I didn't hurt it. I'm sure they're all still within 1 gram. Pat yourself on the back. You asked the right question. The one I was self-conscious about in my production, but too lazy to do anything about. ;) There I go contradicting the point of my video. xD

@Jafromobile 8 жыл бұрын
Only if you can't get the cam timing events within a degree of spec. Count the number of teeth on the cam gear and divide 360 by that number. Multiply the result by 2. That's how many degrees moving the belt (or chain) a whole tooth will offer. If you can't hit the value by moving it a tooth, and it's off when it's lined up, then you need the adjustable gear.

@Jafromobile 9 жыл бұрын
Yes I can. It's because you got a better 60' time. You got that thing moving faster out the hole. If you take one tenth off your 60' time, it takes .2 off your total ET. Whenever you do this, you end up with a lower mph. A slower launch = faster MPH. You will be able to do that math and confirm this. One tenth off the 60' = two tenths off the ET. That's why races are won or lost on a hole shot. ;)

Hi jafro quick question if you get a minute, I'm going for just stock rebuild on my 97 GSX, it has a 6 bolt swap and I'm getting ready to install my timing belt. I understand the timing marks on the cam gears but how do you know where to put the belt on the crank gear? My balance shafts are eliminated so I know I don't have to line up the oil pump. Thanks! :)

With that said. Just wondering if any of those spare turbo manifolds and 16g's are fore sale.... Just wondering. And keep up the good work. Lots of great things I have learned watching these videos through out the last 3 years. Thumbs up....

Great video. That is really high compression. What kind of boost will this car see? Also when is the 2g coming back to life? I been waiting a long time. I check for updates.But nothing on it for some time. Please put the 2g back on the road. I wanna see its revenge on the track.

great video like all the rest. i have a question tho. i currently own a 97 mustang and love it but way to many problems and ive always wanted a 4g63 to call my own fortunately i dont have the money to buy an evo and an eclipse is to old (i need a reliable daily that i can wrench on) so i was thinking i might get a lancer and put a 7 bolt in it even tho everyone says it would cost more than buying an evo (lancer $4000 vs evo $20k+)(i dont think it will cost me $15000...) plus i love a challenge what do you think?
@Jafromobile 9 жыл бұрын
It think it will take a whole lot more effort. The further you deviate from the platform, the harder you will work building it back into it. For instance... My Colt is taking entirely too long to finish. It's because of 4 projects, but it's an awful lot of work to make it AWD. If you have no aversion to hard work and spending lots of time, then you earned your fat pockets. I think it would be awesome, and you'd be a pioneer.

Just an observation : didn't you paint the head previously? Different head? or out of sequence? Anyway, thanks for a very informative and well presented series. BTW - we used to use silly putty on the piston, assemble head and turn motor - take apart and check pocket depth and alignment with valve and do the necessary carving (worked well in 1973 ;>} )
@Jafromobile 8 жыл бұрын
Different head. I have 4 cars powered by this engine model. That head got assembled with 1mm oversized SS intake and Inconel exhaust valves in Cylinder Head 203. It's assembled, minus the cams, but that head hasn't been installed yet. I have a lot of work to do to the block first.

Did you weigh the pistons after removing material to make sure they are balanced?
@daniel2064 4 жыл бұрын
I use modeling clay on the piston to determine the cut/clearance and shape needed. I give the piston with the modeling clay to the machinist and it gets cut according the shape left by the valve.
@Jafromobile 4 жыл бұрын
I was going to use a clay bar. Just like modeling clay, its texture and consistency feels perfect for this. I hope I never have to do this again, though... This was an exercise in making out-of-spec factory parts from 3 different engines work together, lol! Using them for a completely different purpose than they were designed for. I plan on buying the right parts that fit from now on!
@tomashton7208 7 жыл бұрын
you should turn the engine over a few times before the final torque seqence for the cam caps, what flips me out , is these days the cam shafts run without bearings, just and oil feed hole and if you got anything hard in there it grinds up the saddle for the cam, ive heard of offset line boring the cam tunnels, as a repair but wouldnt babbit bearings save alot of heads that would other wise end up in the scrap yard?

just did a comp test after replacing a head gasket and I have 2 @125 psi and 2 @ 230psi..Is 230 acceptable for a santa fe 2.4 engine? the low ones point to leaking valves so off it comes again

Nice to see that head being torqued down I bet you a relieved!, With ARP's on the hyundai does that mean L19's or H11's on the gsx build? haha. Hows the ribs hope they are coming right, almost time for some runs at the track.

kbcustomz MAYBE! :O Ribs are at about 60% now. 2 months later. It's really helping my production to have them stuck back together instead of floating around in my giblets. I don't recommend this sort of injury to anyone.

I have a question. Chrysler indicates they borrowed their design for the ECC in the Neons and PT's from previous gens such as "K" cars etc. Those were pushrod from what I remember. I don't know if you've ever worked on the 2.0 or 2.4, but I wanted to know if you thought they were just non-balanceshaft, flipped versions of the DSM. The valve covers, valvetrain and several other parts seem to be direct, yet opposite copies. The reason I ask is whether they'd be compatible in any way. If that's the case, why not build an ECC 2.0L DOHC that doesn't have a balance shaft already and has a one piece main girdle?
@boneyardracing1493 7 жыл бұрын
Joe's Garage the Chrysler 2.0/2.4 shares some design architecture with the 2.2/2.5 engines. The 8 valve or 2.2/2.5 engines were largely SOHC 8 valve (hence the nomenclature) types. Exceptions being the Turbo III Lotus head, Maserati 16v, and a Shelby/Hans Herman 16v head that never made it past a testing phase until 1995 with the introduction of the 2.0/2.4 engines. The early 2.0 dohc head is very very similar to the Shelby 16v head of the older engine. While you can certainly see some 4g63 in a neon engine they are very much not the same or even related. This is an extremely common misconception due to the 420a non-turbo 2g engine using a neon block and rotating assembly with a head that for lack of a better phrase is cast backwards with the intake manifold facing the firewall. Interestingly enough the valve springs are shared between neon, early 2.4, SRT4 2.4, 420a, and 4g63. This is the only shared part I'm aware of. The bedplate in Chrysler speak main cap design brings it's own challenges and we will often add steel caps to the bedplate for support.
@B1GDaddyFatStax 7 жыл бұрын
BoneYard Racing is it just the valve springs? Or are the HLAs and cam followers the same as well. Just curious. they look nearly identical from pics and footage I've seen. I've never actually had the privilege of working on the 4G63.
@boneyardracing1493 7 жыл бұрын
Joe's Garage I once owned a 1g Tsi Awd those lifters and followers at least were not the same. I can happily provide measurements for the Chrysler valve train parts. Perhaps Jaffromobile could help us with 4g63 measurements.

Aye jafro question wanted to know. There's a 6bolt long block for sale around the corner from me I have a 65 eclipse gsx. But the 6 bolt long block is from a egale talon wanted to know even tho it's same engine. Besides one 7 bolt nd the other is 6. Wanted to know befor I pick it up. Can that long block fit in my. Eclipses even tho it's came from a egale talon ??
@Jafromobile 9 жыл бұрын
Yes, it can fit. If only I could get the space back to continue my 95 GSX build, it's getting a 6-bolt block with a 7 bolt head. You will see the rest of it played out as soon as I can put it back on the front burner.

i started watching your vids 6 months ago since then i brought a 89 mirage with a gen 1 4g63t in it and hopefully get the block and head back from my machine shop this week and get into the build i have one question my machinist told me to run a 1.5mm multi layer head gasket with arp studs block has been decked once and head has been skimmed twice cant recall the thickness off top off my head does this sound correct to you im running standard cams and gears so dont need to degree any advice helpfull u seem to be a 4g63 god p.s wen i die i want to go to heaven (your shed / man cave ) cheers for the good watch
