I would like to see that portion of the repair. This video was awesome showing all the work that goes into the preparing of an aluminum block

Would like to see the progress of this repair. Keep the different videos coming I like what y’all are doing

Yes, I would like to see repair after machine and machining process

This is awesome..I remember back in 1995 when I first learned how to TIG weld aluminum..I was at work one day in the shop and ran out of work for the day on stainless steel items we/our company was contracted to fabricate and started piddling around with the TIG torch..one of the other welders told me to weld this aluminum piece together and I had to tell him I didn't know how..so he showed me how to switch the ac/dc voltage on the Miller machine over to AC and change the frequency type and that was all it took for me to begin my many years of TIG welding aluminum. I wish I could go back to those days and work at a shop like Noonans..that would be my all time most favorite job ever ! Like others have said I can watch this type of video doing repairs like this. Thanks Noonan for showing this..made my day !

Awesome stuff 👍 Yes please can watch repair videos all day long 🇦🇺🇦🇺

Yep, would love to see the CNC process. One of the bolt-holes on the pan rails looks pretty stretched.. Fill that sucker in!

I'm a CNC guy so always love seeing the machining portions.

When I was doing propeller repair we would peen the weld with an air hammer using a rounded balled tip. It helps relax the weld and keep it from pulling so much and changing the pitch. Since this piece is getting re machined and cnc’d it might help you guys keep it in tolerance. There is no finish weld visible so it might be something to look into. Keep up the good work fellas

Cool video these types are interesting. It’s amazing what pros like noonan can rebuild . I’ve watched Steve M weld up busted blocks and return them to their glory nice to see you show the same type of repairs

Definitely will like the CNC process of the repair.

YES! Show the machine work! And the completed work! Thank You!

Nice work, would love to see it in the cnc re machining the weld repair.

feeding the rod looks like a technique in itself

Yes let's go to the next step and see the block get machine

Looking forward to next step in repair.

That was awesome seeing what goes into quality workmanship the extra miles you guys go is excellent and can we see the next steps along the way as it is so interesting great stuff Team Noonan.

I’d love to see the rest of your process, it almost looked like there was a crack in one of the lifter bores also, or was that an optical illusion from the welding and video process?

Hell yeah bro, y’all better show cnc and final repaired product!!!!

nothing like getting a windowed block back and having to try and find the repair... craftsman at their best

That man glitter is on par with being stung by a jellyfish.

It’s so cool to see you guys rebuild these blocks 👌

Wow. What a skilled welder! 🇺🇸

ABSOLUTELY I would like to see that part of the repair. How much repair cost would it have to be to be worth just getting another block? How bad would the damage have to be to not be able to repair it? The ability to repair these blocks makes them more attractive.

Yes, want to see the finished final part of the repairs 🧐😎🤙🇺🇲

Outstanding video!

Hell yes show it

Would like to see a super slo-mo of the events creating the need for this repair.

Tell that assole running the die grinder THANKS for his contribution to the intro!!!

Awesome work guys keep going and GOD BLESS YOU ALL Boys

Sorry guys can’t read that fast. Awesome video.

I want to see more!

Man I would love to be able to weld like that guy…

please show that cnc repair

For sure, let's see it

Let’s see the rest of the repair.

Yes would like to see the machining of the repairs

Great workmanship. Do you worry about warpage due to the heat ?

Respect!

Definitely like to see the complete repair

I would love to see you time-lapse of the machining

Please show the rest of the process!

We got see the machining part

Yes please I would like to see the machining process. I’m hoping you guys use Haas machines

How many amps did he jab that thing with?... water-cooled torch mist be nice! Lol I need me one of those!

No water jacket I assume? Could you have fixed the same damage on a block that had a water jacket? What is cost vs. buying a new block?

Without a doubt show they Machining and final result

Ya I'd like to see the machining that tunnel welding was interesting 🤔

Curious why you don’t put in a main line bar while welding? In any case great video. Thanks

That was simply put badasss

Jesus they tore that SOB up 😳😳😳😳! I’m sure it was running perfectly before they destroyed it! Yes definitely would like to see the rest of the repairs! It looks like it’s been treated pretty horribly!

Id like to see a bae and noonan head to head. I cant remember if it was allen Johnson who came up with 481-x. But id like to see a head to head thing

Please show machining

As a kid my dad would always say don't look at the welder or without a hood is it the same on tv will we go blind

Pulling hot filler rod out of shield gas is a no-no

Would like to see the machine process

Did you preheat the block before welding please.

Yes i want to see it ran on the mill and the finished product. Also what it the price difference in this repair vs a new block.

Ive seen some guys peen the weld area as they weld...a form of stress relieving

When this damage occurs. What do U do with main tunnel alignment? Surely it must bend the tunnel a lot?

I just subscribed to your channel . Very cool Where do you get your carbide burs from .I need a good source for them .How do you like the Everlast tig machine Thanks

Cheaper to repair than start over? How many hours? Never owned a billet but have a dart aluminum block. I am a novice and hope to never blow up

Let’s see it

What's your opinion on a repair like this in the main webbing of a cast aluminum block, will it be near original strength or is it a waste of time? I see a lot of folks peen their stitches but yall did not here, is it not necessary or maybe just for certain circumstances?

I would like to see the cnc work

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪

Argh My EYES!!!!!
