I bought an ex track day rental Ferrari F430 which was cheap as it didnt come with a complete engine or gearbox. Ive since managed to build a F430 engine but now its time to rebuild a fire damaged gearbox that i bought from ebay. If i dont manage rebuild it then the budget for this build is out the window.

I feel like I'm now a Ferrari master tech for having watched this video
😂
Not only that Freddy, Ferrari master techs will use this video as reference, hehe
If you can rebuild a completely water damaged p1 you can do anything 😂
Ask Mat if he can buy a crash damaged p1 so u can become a mclaren master tech😉
Tavarish the goat 🐐
I’ve learnt so much from these videos. I think I’m ready to attach the chain back onto my bike.
😅😅😅

Rob, please accept this award for “internet person of the day” .
@@Dropz_RSA I am truly humbled. I want to thank my mother, father and the dog for making me the person I am. 😭
You are one lucky guy having a Dad who is a real gear head. His skills needs some recognition here. Admit it, man. Your Dad is one talented dude!!
yeh his dad is a real gear head. I saw him racking up in the back room 😅
Yeah loved this smile with every single progress in this project !! 😎 I am missing my dad, he was the same 😭
His dad is Gandalf when it comes to this stuff.
Diff torque spec Use the German Guten-tite
Love the fact that Matt stays loyal to his humble beginnings. Still has the same team even though anyone would be dying to work along side him. This was just makes it more fun and challenging. His dad is a great addition
definetly - I appreciate the discount code for ferrari and maserati-parts, that really helps the working man. So humble.
His name is Mat, not Matt, what the hell is wrong with you?
I interviewed to work with them and they were paying so little it was comical!
@@Psy-J Dont forget peddling literal slop instead of food lmaoo
As a mechanical engineer in power stations, we have a lot of gear boxes, you need to find out back lash settings in the diff & gear box, you normally change the spacers to get the correct backlash so you will need to find the information somehow, getting it wrong means the gearbox & diff will have problems when it gets warm & could wreck the gearbox etc, well done for putting the gearbox together from a pile of bits, I hope it works ok for you🤞
I thought the same thing! With swapping the bearings between the 2 boxes Matt, it will likely change the pre-load on the diff. Good news is you can adjust it by just removing the diff, so the rest of the ‘box doesn’t need to come to bits…. Just the diff cover etc. a g’box refurb place might be kind enough to advise or even if you paid them to set the diff spacing you’ve still saved £££££
This needs to be upvoted more
Came here looking for this sort of comment. Yes diff preload settings can be critical. swapping bearings and shims can upset this a lot
I'm no expert but I think he should also do the yellow paint thing to see how well the gears are meshing between ring gear on diff and the pinion gear inside the assembly
I think I’d also worry about the fire damage changing the temper on the gear faces 😬
Seeing the constant joy on your dad's face he loves being involved is brilliant
Man, its not like I have a bad relationship with my dad at all, but sharing such a bond with your dad sharing a passion is so awesome to see. May long it continue! Keep it up Mat and all the team, including your other half, so cool to see her also into the mix. Amazing content man!
Hi Matt, I just love your vids, I'm a bit of an oldy at 67, so wouldn't want to wreck the street cred, but you feed the need that I can no longer feed myself with your project and positive attitude. I love that you, Hanna and the team give back so much too, you are a real example to us all. Keep doing your thing, it's great.
Also, that gearbox rebuild was epic. Love seeing you and your dad figure it out.
Love to see both of my favorite KZheadrs
Obviously he spoke to his dad in the morning who told him that's what happens with no gearbox oil 😂
@ MatArmstrongbmx your dad Tony seems to know his shit! Was he an mechanic or car guy in his day?
Part 4?
I know others have commented on how awesome it is have your dad working with you, but it's so great to see. My father owned a shop, specializing in tires and wheels, and he taught me a lot about cars. He passed about 10 years ago, but his voice is still with me when I do a simple oil change. Much love from Seattle!
Ayee Seattle
He’s always with you, my bro.
Oh Wow! 💌
Waiting now for part 4. This rebuild is epic.
The only thing that I believe is making a difference is your positivity and having a great Dad. Enjoyed every bit of all the episodes. Now you better make it run or I'll unscrew your gearbox. Can't wait. Best time spent with you guys, thanks
Your Dad is top geezer what would you do without him. just love how you dive into it cheers guys.
His name is Tony
His name is Murray
His name is Daddy.
@@martijnholland1714 **yelling from island**. oi!! What's his name?
Dad is a good source of experience, that is obvious. I should think that behind the scenes Dad has a lot to do with helping Mat to steer a fair-weather course thru the many mazes of building stuff. Fanx dad, your an Ace!
This channel wouldn't be the same without Mat's dad. What a legend. I lost my dad 12 years ago and could only imagine the cool stuff we would be doing if he were still around. Mat... treasure it. Mats dad... I ❤ you.
Wish my kids felt the same about me. Can't even talk. Treasure your dad,like I do
Mat, I love your video's. Amazing what you are willing to tackle. Most people would just leave it alone. Working next to your dad and respecting him by calling him Dad and not the old man, I love that. Well done pal. I cannot thank my Dad enough for what he taught me in my life, he is turning 80 now and I still learn from him.
Love how your dad is just cheesing all the way through these videos, he's loving it
Matt, I'm a teacher, I like cars and fixing them. Your M5 video inspired me to get a crashed car and fix it myself 😂 with absolutely no prior experience. And it works just perfect. Worked on the engine, electrical components, and structure as well. Bought it for $1600 and spent almost $1900 on it. It's a 2016 Subaru Legacy 2.5i Sedan 4-Door 2.5L..... Thank you, mate. Keep up the good work 👏
awesome dude!
Me too, awesome dude.
What a car too fair play mate
530d for me, sold it on and broke even
You had me till Subaru smh those cars suck
Hi Mat excellent effort. Not a Ferrari guy but I have a lot of experience building gearboxes for another top manufacturer. Gearbox crown wheel and pinions are made as matched items. You often see a colour dot on the gears say red or blue which will match. So both items will have the same colour. I'd use the pinion shaft from the toasty gearbox it should be fine. This is likely why you are getting so much resistance when trying to turn it rather than it needing oil. The pinion is tight against the crown wheel not leaving enough clearance. It'll go boomski otherwise.
I thought he did use the secondary shaft and crown wheel from the fire damaged box so they were paired up? Only the first motion shaft that was original?
The only thing he did not do is set the pinion to ring/crown backlash. That could come back to haunt him, but since he is using the matched set from the toasty box, he might be fine. There might also be a setup procecedure for the limited slip clutch. Without a manual and clearance specs they are just guessing obviously. You could do some paint marking and guessing which would get them in the ballpark, as a good patern is a good patern regardless of what the factory numbers say. Why should Ferrari be able to keep this information hidden? Does the UK have a right to repair law like we do here in the US??
What about the tempering on the gears? Could it be affected by the fire?....are they even tempered?
You deserve a full blown show in the Discovery channel or BBC or Amazon prime as this content is at par with old top gear/ wheeler dealers/pimp my ride. Wishing you more success brother
Watching you fulfill your dreams and bringing your dad on to help its so wholesome brother. Keep making content and being a good bloke! Always inspiring!
One can only imagine the number of Ferrari engineers and technicians wincing at your crude, but effective method for reassembling one of their classics. Keep it up, this has been such an interesting watch, can't wait for next episode.
Matt, the memories you’re making with your dad are priceless mate!! Keep up the great work both of you…
Matt must be dragging the floor with the size of his balls taking on these jobs with not much knowledge of how to build a ferrari engine but wow great entertaining content 👏 👍 and I do believe this 430 will be nice and be nice to see it back to stock style wise.
Absolutely
An amazing achievement to put engine and gearbox together using your wits and photographs. Stunning.
Well done guys. 1st gear box done now your ready for more!!!. Great to see your fantastic relationship with your Dad, keep up the amazing work.
papa armstrong is a gem, may we get a lot more of him for years to come
His name remains mystery. Tony

Toe knee arm 💪 🐐
Matts Dad is such a legend so happy to see him on every build now
Show me the groove bit got me so good! Mat's Dad is a legend!
19:35 - This is a limited slip differential. A differential works shifting the torque to the wheel with less resistance. This is used to align the wheel speed in curves as the inner wheel will have a smaller trajectory to follow, thus needing to spin less. If there was no differential, the wheels would fight each other as the one outside the curve wants to spin more. The issue with racing cars is that, as you roll the car, the weight will be shifted to the outter wheels. This will increase the resistance of the outter wheels and the torque will be shifted to the inner wheels. Now imagine an extreme case where the car is rolling so much, that the inner wheel is lifting from the ground. With an open differential, all the torque will be sent to that floating wheel, as its the one with the least resistance. Meaning, you will lose all your torque to push the car forward, thus losing time, until the car reduces its speed,the wheel touch the ground again and the engine start pushing the car forward again. In racing cars, in order to prevent that, you can limited slip differentials. Meaning. These plates will not let one wheel spin 100% and the other 0%.depending on the amount of these plantes, geometry, material, pressure (if hydraulic) etc, you might have a 20%-80% differential - 70-30%. Etc. In some cases like off road application, you can have a blocking system which will actually make it 50-50 so you don't get stuck in the mud for example.
What's up Mat, mechanical engineer here I was literally about to comment that a transmission has a good bit of friction in neutral and will still spin if no weight counteracting the load from the engine but looks like you figured it out lol. When building my SLC I noticed it in action too with my car on the lift. Love your content man!
Love to see the support Tony gives Mat.
Who's Tony? ;p Only kidding, I actually know from binge watching. Great work Mat! Recent subscriber and I'm hooked! Your attitude is infectious.
thats supposed to be a secret
🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫
Simply amazing what you guys achieve and each episode is a delight to watch.
Absolutely brilliant stuff Mat. Just caught on to this channel in the last week and loving these builds. I'm no mechanic but happy to give anything a go to learn. You're an inspiration to anyone thinking about doing any DIY. Keep it going. Ill be watching.
Suga Sean wins the belt, and Mat puts out a new video. Perfect weekend
The sugar Sean part sucked though 🤣
right! that card was really good.
That’s what I’m saying
Sean deserves that belt!
@@Fisgrisenwhy? He’s better than that fraud aljolame
Mate I’ve been in the job 30 years and can rebuild a gearbox long as I’ve took it apart! What you’ve done there is really impressive and I hope it’s all good when yr get it up and running and if it’s not you’ll show us that unlike other channels! Best thing about you what you see is what you get keep it up Matt!
I am LOVING this series... keep up the great work! I love your humility and positive energy.
I know absolutely nothing about engines and transmissions but I really enjoy watching this rebuild.
I love it when you say "at least we are trying at least we are giving it a go" because i wish more people thought like that it's surprising what happens when you just try to do something instead of saying nah i haven't got a clue so there's no point 😢 . You are such a positive person and that's fantastic, keep pushing the boundaries mat you are doing great 😃👍
Yes his videos are so much more than cars. So many life lessons too
I couldn’t agree more. I love Mat’s we are going to try attitude! What’s the worst that happens? You did it wrong so you try again. I admire this and wish I’d possessed that attitude.
me and my dad have a saying of "we might not know what we are doing when we start, but I guarantee we do by the time we finish", I feel like this is the same for matt and his dad as well.
Tackling that gearbox was nerve wracking just watching it. Hats off to you all. Bloody well done!
I love how mats dad always has a smile on his face
Tony is an absolute meme! He’s great! Love seeing you all working together😃
Love to see you change cars and challenge yourself all the time and then sharing details we don’t typically see elsewhere on Ferrari. McLaren next time?
First reply
Fr
Freddy is a mclaren expert at this point I’m sure he’ll help mat out
Boy o boy Mat and Dad Tony (he has a name 🤣🤣) smashing it out the park again gear boxes are very complex I thinks it's witchcraft to be honest 🤣🤣🤣 good to see the progress and keep up the hard work nurburgring test drive would be nice 😁
Mclaren next for sure
Hey Matt, i think y ou should check your ring gear to pinion clearances, you have mixed parts from 2 gearboxes including the case that holds it all in place, all those spacers and shims you put on each side have an effect on how tight they are when put together, notice you have your pinion already there in the middle and then you are inserting the diff front the side and the teeth engage, how deep you put the differential effects how much theyre biting eachother, you can check the clearance by using a paint called prusian blue, or grease, and also once its put together you could check your clearance with a gauge, if you want to eyeball it when its all put together you should be able to grab both axle outputs and move them back and forth and notice a very minimal slack, but it has to be there if it doesnt that differential will grind itself to crumbs. hope you notice !!
I can attest that checking the ring & pinion for proper mesh is a very important step. Many years ago I mixed & matched parts in a Corvair transaxle (yes, I know; why Corvair) & did not check or adjust the mesh. The ring & pinion blew up after just a few hundred miles (must have been all that horsepower). A critical step!
Its sad to see this hes got als the parts but definitely needs a manual to do this. These things are not something that gets trown together.
Came here for this comment
Whose Matt? Do you mean derek, Rupert or maybe even Inglebert.
LOL. It doesn't matter. Did you not notice the color difference between the gears, he used from the heat damaged gearbox? The gears are brown. This is a strong indicator that they were exposed to temperatures of 900°-1000°F. The thing is sooner or later going to blow anyways.
Ring and pinion gears are mated and cannot be swapped either other gears. I'm so glad you got that part before you put it all together. I would have hated to tell you three days too late. You guys are doing and awesome job! Can't wait to see it complete!
You must be making the best series on YT currently. These rebuilds are phenomenal. Thanks for sharing Mat & team.
your dad is pure joy, it's so great to see you two working together!
My favorite part was watching you hammering that gearbox yelling "Ferrari! Ferrari! Ferrari!" Hilarious! Cant wait to see you pull that beast out of the garage!
I've had the same kind of problem with a small bike, where i had to rebuild a gearbox (I didn't take it apart) and after a lot of hours i finally rebuild it but i wouldn't turn, like it was in gear. Then i put oil in and it worked just fine. Sometimes u gotta trust the process. Btw. love that mechanic team, being serious while having fun. Love the content, keep it up Mat and he's team!
I’ve watched many KZhead channels but hands down this one’s the best , Mat the way you breakdown and explains everything is so clear and understanding, your dad’s a legend !
8:13 😂😂😂 whistlindiesel
Watching this video just now I am in total awe at what you are achieving with this build .To tackle something so complex without the mechanical knowledge of a gearbox specialist is to me scary as hell but good on you for trying hope it works and look forward to seeing it when it does .My mot s due on Friday and need new discs and pads all round and I think that is a big job
Amazing job to all of you!! Watching this F430 rebuild is amazing, you lost me with the gear box but you guys show to everyone that nothing is impossible!! Well done guys💪
the most complex puzzle game, hats down for Mat and his dad.
I really appreciate the calm slow and ‘learn-as-you-go’ ness of these videos. It really helps me gain confidence in my own projects! Thanks Mat!
This is amazing to watch man, credit to you and your dad for taking this on!
Mat - This is what I just appreciate so much of your work - You aren't afraid to get in, do the research, use what's available, and get it done. Cheers!
Mat, your Dad is a flipping legend 😎😂
lmfao the groove 🤣 start dancing 🤣🤣🤣
Tony😉😉
Absolute gangster he is 😎😎😂😂
@@carlbond1603 Deeleeeeteeee itttt..
oh nvm there are hundredss of comments with the name xD
19:44 That clutch plate is a limited slip differential, is in many sport cars and off-road vehicles to avoid 1 wheel sliding in a hard acceleration on low grip surface or on a turn, so it works like a normal differential at low wheel speed difference, but if a tire starts spinning faster that it should, it frictions and send power to the other wheel to distribute the power evenly.
Yes and might even be adjustable for slip response. LSD on commercial sport car, might be adjustabke to answer the need of the driver to get the right sensitivity of the torque at which point you want to trigger oversteering. I guess you might need to get to sport car specialist in customised LSD to answer your question
Watching these videos makes me want to quit my job and become a mechanic apprentice learning to rebuild exptic car engines. Matt is the perfect illustration of how hard work and attitude can get it done
Hi Matt I have rebuilt a few Toyota Hilux gearbox’s. The turning of the output shaft when the input shaft is turned when in neutral was normal on the hilux. Just drag through the gears. When you have the diff in and wheels on the ground should stop the turning transferring.
Mat, your enthusiasm and tenacity are infectious. As someone who has rebuilt a few engines and a motorcycle gearbox (Moto Guzzi, similar to a car) mostly without manuals or KZhead videos, I admire your "have a go" attitude, well done! Also, it's great to see you and your dad working together, that must be such a buzz for the both of you. Fantastic, and well done mate!
Honestly mate, you've had me absolutely hooked for the last year or so. I know you here it all the time but the relationship between you and your dad is just amazing.
Love your enthusiasm Mat. I’ve just rebuilt my Defender, but you take each of these builds so positively. Making old guys smile.
Matt, I built a kit car 10 years ago and just love your streams. You, Sir have a fantastic attitude and a great family business. I love your enthusiasm and balls of steel, along with the have a go and what the hell.. Keep up the great work and you deserve the success. Jonny/UK
You are one special human being Matt nothing phases you! Your content is 2nd to none 👌
I'm always absolutely amazed how Mat unflinchingly tackles all the complexity of these state of the art motors and with such optimism. I baulk at puting a simple one cylinder motorcycle engine together.
This was awesome to watch. It's evident that you may not have countless years of mechanical experience, but your logically reasoned approach to a job like this makes up for it. My dad gets a few projects like this in his garage when a car is ripped apart by clueless mechanics and gets delivered in a bunch of random plastic boxes, it requires calm nerves and patience to not get overwhelmed by it.
You did it 👍🙏🇨🇦 MA and DDE and Tavarish best channels IN BUSINESS
Mat having your Dad on the Channel has Completed it, the Cherry on the Cake, I Absolutely Love seeing you two together ❤️
Tony Armstrong😏
I love the fact of you starting this build of this car engine and doing step by step of this build of this Ferrari build.i love your channel and all your videos you do so keep up the great work with your dad shot of from st.louis mo .here
I could have given up many times just by watching it, but Mat, u step by step learning as u go & having positive mind really amaze me. Final "next morning" outcome really gave me a relief. Thanks Mat for kicking my butt, now i need to focus to complete my project.
I always save random nuts and bolts etc from whatever I come across. I used ikea stub screws to rid my 530d of the dreaded swirl flaps (alternative a few hundred quid), I used some rubbers from a new washing machine to hold the air box down on my van. The list goes on.
19:59 That is a great attitude and advice. Love it.
Tony -> "Going to dap on the haters.." Absolute Greatness !!
Matt, your dad is brilliant, his smile and laugh is so infectious. It’s great to see you both with such a great relationship
Mat, you're either a genius or a complete lunatic! I'm having a really hard time deciding which it is. It's like an emotional roller coaster watching your videos... but I can't stop watching! 😂
There isn't usually much of a difference between a genius and a lunatic.
great job dude! never settle in the face of defeat. your already there. my as well fight to the finish! even with all the adversities your up against, you keep going with a smile! your an inspiration dude! cant wait to see it run! im rooting for you! that ending was special! huge smile on my face now!
23:00 love your logic Matt. Theres times you simply have to tey something as opposed to theorising it... also.. "dont make fun of someone who's trying" should be a mantra we all work towards. I only recently found your channel, and as a backyard mechanic myaelf, love to "tinker". These are great videos, bloody inspirational, and hope notjing but the hest for your future. Good onya !
Cheers to Hannah for keeping things anchored. Love the series so far.
I felt so bad when you said it didn't work because just watching the amount of work you put into this and then when you came back with your girlfriend and showed that it was working I was so happy for you!
Kudos to you for diving in and giving it your best. Before you put the transmission back in the car though, you should check the backlash of the ring and pinion gears to see if it is correct to spec. With the different transmission case you are using now, it will change the backlash. Too much or too little backlash will destroy the ring and pinion quickly.
You are a legend! And you are right, it's your car and if you break it, you can fix it. Respect my man.
A limited slip diff does need some resistance to work efficiently, I knew you had it from the get go. Good work mate 😎😎 it’s all about the physics 😉
I kept yelling that it’s normal to have it turning. They’d never had gotten that far without that all being correct.
The only problem with this video is you just can't tell how long they have been working and stressing on one part. It could be 18hours into the day and Mat is still smiling. So impressive. I would have been rocking in the corner crying for my mom half an hour in.
My only issue is the metallurgy of the burnt parts (especially gears). I'm thinking embrittlement of the steel which would lead to eventual failure of the gearbox. I guess the next owner can always figure that out as long as they dont wreck it after a couple days of driving.
It's a bit like what you are saying is HWBT? Spot on.
Superb content, not only are they attempting to rebuild everything themselves....Theyre also filming /editing the whole process for us, thank you guys
I have got mad respect for you to tackle this job. I’m with you on this. The best way to learn is to try. Failure is your next learning opportunity. Keep up the great work!!
As an car enthusiast I love watching this. Trail and error, just finding out what does what, great stuff. Never give up 🍀🍀🍀
Amazing persistence! You definitely have talent and guts to do these crazy complicated builds. Thank you Mat for inspiring us to try challenging projects.
"show me the groove" fire moves from dad haha , what a lad!
Love how dad is always involved
Your patience is amazing! I love how you have a go at stuff most of us wouldnt even entertain! Looking forward to seeing this running! 👍👍👍👍
Love this build. Mat, you and your dad create so much excitement around venturing into the unknown. It's inspiring.
Matt your channel is amazing thank you so much for keeping it real and leaving in the stuff that you know you said wrong like the primary shaft in the trans. I absolutely love watching your videos. By the way the part that’s on the differential is the ring gear. The pinion is the small one that’s in the transmission.
Mat's dad is well funny. He needs his own build! Great work Mat, always keeping things light and positive while working through the struggles. It is one of my new favourite channels.
This is a major episode🤯🤯I don't think most comprehend the amount of work that went into this Absolutely love it❤
That was extremely well done Mat, dad & team! Inspiring to see you setting the bar higher and higher.
Ring gear is what you were calling the pinion and the actual pinion is stubby gear that meshes with the ring gear inside the box :) no hate just helping you along the journey that is gearboxes. Props for properly giving it ago, this is the only way to properly learn
Love it! Condenser is a compressor, pinion is a crown wheel and the secondary shaft is the input shaft.. perfect Mat!
I love you’re videos Mat! You’ve done so well for yourself, self taught, never giving up. Keep up the great work!
Wow you just keep raising the bar with these rebuilds. Hats off to you
