  • I can't express enough how much I enjoy these redline videos. The production value is just top notch (yep), and Davin is such a down-to-earth guy. He does such a good job explaining things for the average viewer and seems like he genuinely enjoys the work. We need more people like him. The videos feel less like a production, and more like he's coaching an apprentice. He's also willing to show his mistakes, how he overcomes them, and things he genuinely didn't know and had to learn more about. Great work as always. Thank you all for your putting this content together.

  • An alternative to reaming the cam bearings out is to use a roll burnisher set to the cam journal size. What that does is expand the soft bearings slightly and will not leave scratches in the bearings or remove any material.

  • Great video as usual. My party trick to match oil holes on camshaft bearing with oil galleys is to put a dot with marker at the front of the bearing and second on the front of the engine block where oil galley is. This way you can match them when bearing is on a tool. And about that universal tools for camshaft bearings, because they open to accomodate different sizes, the surface that pushes bearing inside is not whole so it leaves marks. With very soft bearings or with very tight fit it can misshape them. Better to turn it for size from soft material like aluminium.

  • When I was a young kid learning to do machine work and engine assembly, my much older and wiser boss showed me a tip when installing cam bearings. If your not going to install them in reverse like Dave did, you can put the bearings in and then set the front of the camshaft in backwards on the front bearing and gently tap or nudge it bye hand to center the front bearing. Although large displacement Chryslers where a pain to get the cam to turn free I had good luck with the small displacement engines, like SBF and SBC..

  • So, a few aftermarket bearing kits I've bought in the past had two ordering options, if you were reusing your old cam, you'd get the OS (oversized bearings), but if you were using a new cam ground to factory spec, you'd use the SS (stock-size bearings). This idea of "scraping" in your Cam bearings is used to be more common, anyone that used to build engines in the 80's with aftermarket cams probably know this nightmare.

    • @@BAD_CONSUMER you'd be surprised are some of the bananas things that "old-school" engine builders used to do. My uncle used to build small block mopar LA engines for circle-track racing back in the 70s, ultra high-compression/high-revving, he'd use slightly oversized rings and bearings, and let the engine "self clearance", which seems absurd today, but he insisted that that it was extremely difficult to machine tolerances that tight so it was easier to to build them too tight and break them in to perfection. They'd slowly run the motor up to 8500 RPM with a magnet on the oil filter and would pull a quarter's worth of metal shavings out of the filter after the break-in run was done. Thankfully CNC machining has become commonplace and relatively inexpensive since then.
