Well guys it’s Friday again, so much done this week and with more engines coming in I decide to strip the latest Cosworth engine we have in, only to discover it could be the rarest engine Iv seen!

Good to see Isacs coming on leaps bounds mate.....not very often that young kids want to come into the industry...well done Isaac your doing great 👍

That original Cosworth is a unicorn for sure. 35 years from the factory without being taken apart, plus all services done on schedule. You should ask if they want it custom painted before you send it back to the owner.

Never take anything for granted when building engines (ie piston sizes), top quality stuff has been known to be wrong

fuel fitting comes off the cossie fuel rail with a special tool Lee. You can make one from nylon on the lathe.

These 200 blocks run forever , scrapped a accident damage transit with a really nice 100k engine 2.0l pinto , it had the zing to it when you started it up , anyways, fitted it to a chaps ford Capri , I explained the cam and carb were for a van so the power was down a bit so I'd keep the bits from his old cooked lump , but he said it was fine , last time I saw him 14 years had gone past and the engine had done another 100k miles , just came belts , oil and the occasional tappit check . ( I did the spray bar replacement before fitting it to the Capri)

I've done some plating myself. Have you guys tried a muratic acid dip before? I go from the dip, ( around 5 minutes in a basket) then to the wire wheel, then onto plating. You have to be very careful of the acid, it let's of extreme fumes. Mask and gloves. I do it outside in a 5 gallon bucket. Give it a try on a few bolts etc. It is fast. Cheers John 🍻

Idea: Have you guys considered building and selling"Cossie Crate Engines"? You could offer them for a fixed price PLUS an old Cosworth engine in exchange.

Remarkably watchable video guys. The secret to your success is in the informality and the frequency. We get to simply catch up with a couple of (virtual) mates as they go about their profession. After 50 years of hands on motoring I am gaining immense understanding of ICE engines.

Ya lucky turkeys. We had to muck about with pinto engines but they literally ran forever for daily drivers. And a good hot 2.3L setup for mini wings(outlaws) was a hoot tho. About like a souped up go cart lol

I spotted the Hovis tin also, thinking it might be a loaf tin. Being from NZ I had noy heard of Hovis and a quick google confirmed the bread brand. Anthony

I thought yellow/gold zinc was illegal in your part of the world?

@georgebettiol8338 Ай бұрын

Hexavalent zinc plating, which employs hexavalent chromate produces an iridescent gold/yellow. However this type has largely been banned because it is very toxic, an established carcinogen and is very harmful to the environment. As such it's been replaced by the far less toxic and eco-friendly Trivalent zinc plating which employs Trivalent chromate to produce an iridescent yellow finish.

People always said the cossie engine was unreliable but any engine will be if not maintained unless there's a built in design fault like the landtover engine u did

Daihatsu 300hp, 100hp per cylinder! Not going to happen. 😂Currently 33hp per 330cc cylinder. A Moto3 single cylinder engine would develop about 80hp if it was 330cc. To quite a famous line from the Movie, The Castle, “Tell him he’s dreaming”

@georgebettiol8338 Ай бұрын

The said 3 cylinder engine was used to power the UK market 1.0-litre twin-cam fuel injected intercooled turbo Daihatsu Charade GTti, introduced in 1987, which delivered 104 hp in standard guise. With some serious head work and an 'appropriately' sized (ie. large) turbo-intercooler system it could deliver 300 bhp - in the same vein that a turbo 2.0 Ford-Cosworth achieved up to 580 in 1987 (Dick Johnson/Glen Seton) racing trim. However, the real concern with such a powerful 1.0 litre engine would be - to put it mildly - its longevity.

Why strip a filthy dirty engine in your clean work area, not good practice for sure.

Hello everyone 👋. Here's one for the comment section. On a 34mm pict-3 carb fuel level in float bowl 18mm from carb top & when i tilt the carb back it drains out of for want of a better word the spout in the throat of carb now im new to this type of carb but tilting it back which raises the fuel level above the spout & it poors out the spout until the fuel level drops below the spout. So effectively if i went up a steep hill or parked on a hill it would empty fuel into manifold. That cant be a thing can it 🤨. Any ideas welcome 👍. This is with lid on & off so not fuel pump pressure cheer's.
