Old rusty's motor is where I first started to follow you, love the farm yard animals in the background. One tip I can pass on to you for the ultrasonic cleaner is put small parts in zip lock bags with some cleaning fluid in them then put the bag into the ultrasonic cleaner bath. This does 2 things, it keeps the bath clean and let's you clean multiple parts without them getting mixed up.

You sir are best of the best simple Explainig every thing in detail its very efective .👍👍👍

mooi in beeld gebracht Stefaan

Nice to see old rusty again. Appreciate the work you are putting in. Looking great

again a very clean install and detailed explanation... way to go sir

Thank you for another 30 minutes of really fascinating videao.

Yes old rusty, been waiting to see her again! Great job Steve! And I love the clean look of the engine, it’s a labor of love. Gr. From the Dutch neighbor

Something about you torquing the bolts was so relaxing. Can't wait to see the engine running for the first time :)

It's wonderful to see n to follow your videos, intressting nice job. Have a good luck 🍀. Cheers

Very nice video tutorial especially regarding how to install the various seals - we are so used to rubber lip seals - back then they did not exist and special attention to fitment was needed

Great video, entertaining, educational and relaxing. It has everything a good TV show should have. So I don't watch TV. Waiting for the next video, greetings.

Enjoyed watching and looking forward to the engine start. It is a beautiful classic engine and very French!! Back in the day, there was a sealer called "Shellac", which was made from tree resin. This was good for cork and paper gaskets (I still have a bottle somewhere in my garage). Thanks for posting.

Looking real good, it'll be great to see this as a functioning vehicle once again after all the great work that has gone into it. The videos on the bodywork were perfectly timed for me as i have my VW Mk2 Golf in need of a lot welding and your videos allowed me to think about how i would do it and that it's much better to do such a thing yourself than pay others to do it and do a bad job. I'm in the thick of it now and have learn't so much about working with metal and welding etc Anyway, great stuff. A fan from England. Would love to see an old VW on your channel sometime :)

Awesome Video!🎥

Always love your videos , thanks

Awesome job like always. Hello from France

Ek geniet elkeen van jou videos, veral die oor motors. Jonges wat my gedurig vra om raad word eenvoudig aangespoor om liewers D3Sshooter na te slaan! Dit spaar my baie geduld! Dankie wel!

Well done as always!

In KZfaq your information very helpful in the world thank you very much God bless you

Gasket will fit without modifications if you flip it over.

Great video and work as always; maybe for that round hole in the gasket it would’ve been better to first use a smaller punch or bit and gradually go up to the needed size. Ended up good, though. The truck is turning out fantastically. Thank you for taking the time and effort to show us.

I'm glad you caught that; noticed it immediately, with the head gasket.

I had to make a set of exhaust gaskets once. The drill tore the material like yours. So I drilled a small pilot hole and used the dremmel to carefully grind to final size.

Cant wait to see this engine starting!

Hi Steve. Beautiful camera work and presentation. I'm jealous. I never heard the term "carter" for an oil pan/sump before, it must be a local thing, but it was obvious what you were referring to. The motor looks immaculate. I think I would have tried using the old gasket first. The old copper/asbestos gaskets are very forgiving, especially in what would be a low performance application. My "Old Rusty", (Model A roadster) is still sitting under a tarp. I think your Old Rusty will be running before mine. all the best. Mart.

Nice work ont that old engine! Almost done to fire the engine.🖒

nice clean work

Adding the Cork Carter Gasket between the Main Bearing and the block would obviously change the bearing clearance, if you cut the gasket at the edge of the Main Bearing cap( and not under the cap), you wouldn't change the clearance of the bearing and the Crank journel.

If you have to drill an extra hole in these copper asbestos gaskets it works much better if you clamp it down with a piece of wood across the area, as you found, as soon as the helix of the drill enters the copper skin it will pull it off the asbestos packing, I am sure the gasket is not symmetrical or you would have flipped it over ! Stay safe! Chris B.

Looks like gasket would fit copper side up without modifications.

Good job .

Hi, I watch all your videos and do enjoy them. Just a comment about the old sealing compound. Hermetic is the act of sealing, the product was called hermetite. I think you still can get it. Cheers Stefan.

I know how you feel when something unique broke up due to your " perfect plan" 😅😂. I made up the same mistake several time. I'm still in trouble finding a way to solving the last one i made. I was tring to press out the rear drive wheel from the casting case and from the tapered axle... i set up the perfect plan by put in under the 20T press... something was moving... after one second the casting case broke up... leaving the axle inside the drive wheel... at the end of the day i found myself with one broke unique casting impossible to find ad the axle still inside the wheel... then i decide to sent the wheel to a workshop that has the special hydraulic puller (over 600$ tool) and i sent the 2 casting pieces to a cast iron welding shop. Hope for the best 🤞. Btw perfect work as always, see you next time! 😁

Amazing.

STEVE get that Motor Runnin Head out on the Highway Lookin' for adventure and what ever comes your way Rusty's reborn to be wild

Definitely gonna subscribe to your channel

Happy new graphics!

Bolts should be oiled or thread sealer if the holes aren't blind, when tensioning

Good Show!

A hole punch used in a drill press would be better without crushing, or chips getting in between the gasket layers

Thanks sir

You need to flip it long wise, the large opening, and small water channel will be aligned. I can see it. The only difference I see is the bump out will stick out the side with the elongated water channel

When you drilled out the new hole, metal chips got in between the gasket layers... there was a noticeable hump in the gasket there. (Review the drilling) Didn't see you clean out the chips. That will change your water seal in that spot, and general head flatness

Use a small drill as a pilot hole then use a step drill.

Torquing head bolts follows a spiral pattern from the center outward (in case you get lost or can't find the torquing sequence diagram)

Must be a Volvo Penta engine according to the paint :P

Did you try flipping the head gasket over? It had a opening that was on the opposite side for a water jacket?

Am I dumb or is the gasket oriented the wrong way round?

Great job Steve! Also, what's your thought on Project Binky coming to an end? I bet you could pull off something equally as impressive.

Steve, I am wondering when you will be completing/posting the Weber carburetor tuning video?

Looks like you could just flip that head gasket over?

I always put a smear of sealer all over cork casket They have a tendency to dry out and leak after a while and you don’t want

Hi looks like you have head gasket wrong way round ,,,front to back.

Is there a reason the designers made a Cylinder head using Bolts with differing head sizes? Length, I can understand but why not keep all the bolt heads to one size?

Turn the gasket over?

Mooie video ! Welk merk is jou ultra SONIC reiniger?

I know you must have realised that the gasket fitted perfectly if you turned it over (because thats the kind of guy you are) so what was your reasoning behind not doing it???

Good evening Steve, I have a question about my Brixton café racer...may i explain it to you?

I notice that you are using a Rode Wireless Go mic, and it sounds pretty good (especially the bass) and not much clothing noise. Do you like it overall?

It was the wrong way round / upside down . The other hole was on your right

What's a Carter? Is that what you call a sump? (Oil Pan?)

I would of used a wood drill bit to drill the holes

FIRST

drilling too slow must turn very fast !!! I used to put graphite paste on the arch seals same on the oil seals

IS THE "CARTER" ALSO CALLED THE "OIL PAN"?

I'm not a mechanic, but could you not turn the gasket upside down ??🤔👍👍👍

What`s a carter .

Lots of well intentioned negative comments about the gasket but if you look closely a) the slot at the right hand end would still not align properly if you flipped it over but more fundamentally obvious - if you take the time to observe that b) the protrusion on the right side of the cylinder head is replicated with the gasket shape as you placed it - if you flip it over it would be hanging off the end of the left end of the cylinder head - they failed to notice this very obvious but vitally important feature, hence the ignorant negative comments - my response is they should LOOK more and say less

The gasket needs to be turned flipped end to end.

For drilling that gasket you would probably be better with a brad point woodworking bit, but hopefully you will never have to do it again. Edit - should have sail lipped brad point.

The gaskets were exactly the same. You had it the wrong way.

21:57 lol

Turn the Gasket up 180 ° than it work's 🤔🤔

I agree with all the other comments, why didn’t you turn the gasket over 😳😳

Hylomar is much better than silicon.
