It has been a long time coming, but it's finished! The 4.5L 1FZ-FE out of my 80 Series Land Cruiser is finally complete and it looks absolutely perfect! Basically brand new! In this episode I install the timing chain, oil pans, oil pump, head gasket, cylinder head, cams, exhaust manifolds, new gaskets, intake manifold, new vacuum lines, etc. Can't wait to fire this thing up!
This motor went from an oil leaking mess with dried out gaskets and poorly maintained to an absolute beauty!

I've been binge watching this series and gotta say it's amazing what you've done with this engine! I'm probably going to be picking up a '95 with a blown head gasket, and have been watching these in preparation as pretty much every seal is leaking so I'm planning on just pulling the motor to fix it all up. I'm debating between refreshing the bottom end or just going down to replacing the head gaskets, and was wondering (if you don't mind sharing) roughly how much you're into the rebuild up to this point? I remember in an earlier video you said you were at ~$1100, but I was just curious if you have a running total now that it's almost ready to reinstall. Even just a ballpark would be appreciated! Going to be trying to rebuild mine on a budget so I'm just trying to figure out if I should even attempt to do any bottom end/machine work or just leave it at gaskets and seals. Keep up the great work! :)

Looking forward to catching up on your videos tonight. My 1fz refresh is running great, mountains, beach, forest non stop. I ordered my new 1fz short block this week in preparation for a brand new fresh 1fz. Did you recheck you valve clearance after bolting final torque to the block? Lucky you getting out of Cali! Congratulations! Where did you find to relocate?

@@RM_Garage your content is very high quality and super clean, I bet it's time consuming. I had a hard time stopping my 1fz and doing a basic 1 shot video to hopefully help others. Enjoy Idaho, I flirted with Idaho power a few times but it wasn't a fit. The more I thought about it more north Idaho over the Boise area might have been a better choice. Enjoy the free air, Delta vehicle systems is in the Boise area, cool shop.

How much for the rebuild and labor

@6806goats1 11 ай бұрын

Excellent job. Torn on whether to spend the cash on a rebuild or just repower with an LS or a Benz OM606. Finding a 606 in the US would be a challenge. Cummins...heavier than I'd like. Did you need to rebore, new cams etc? You said like new so guessing so. Awesome, hard to bypass that 6 banger. Yeah she's a bit underpowered but it's the factory heart of our beasts. Sacrilege to not keep it all Toyota.

@RM_Garage 11 ай бұрын

Go with the LS for sure. The 1FZ is cool...if you're a purist. In my opinion, there is a reason why an LS is in everything. Dominant.

At the 19:05 mark, isn’t the sealant supposed to go inboard of the holes? So it won’t leak out the bolt holes?

19:05 is the end of the video but I put sealant on both sides of the bolt hole it’s just not filmed in order to not bore people
