Why not put all your videos together into a guide? Will make them easier to find!
RE: 2.1GTd...new video ... - Piggy - 12-11-2014
guide on here?!
I am limited to length at the minute on youtube, but they are in a playlist on my youtube channel
RE: 2.1GTd...new video ... - Piggy - 14-11-2014
port grinding time!! mwahahahaha
RE: 2.1GTd...new video ... - bashbarnard - 14-11-2014
Your obviously getting YouTube hits now as they deem it necessary to show me ads before your bid. Looking good man. Lapping valves is boring but a necessary evil.
RE: 2.1GTd...new video ... - Piggy - 14-11-2014
Am I mad... I do like lapping in valves!!!
just assume others find it massively boring!
RE: 2.1GTd...new video ... - Toms306 - 14-11-2014
Tbh, the porting thing would've bored me enough....lapping valves even more!
I just have no patience though!

Depends how you do it. Years ago when i was on 106OC, there was a guy rebuilding a engine and he said oh, lapping valves doesn't take long at all.
Turns out he had put his suction cup stick in a drill and was covering the valves in paste and just spinning them up in one direction really quickly lol
RE: 2.1GTd...new video ... - bashbarnard - 14-11-2014
The drill method isnt great to be honest. A seen it done before. On a little 1.1 tu engine it would do the job. On a performance or tight tolerance vehicle there is no alternative in my eyes than taking your time and putting some graft in properly.
RE: 2.1GTd...new video ... - Piggy - 14-11-2014
Yeah Ive done that before. Gives them a good start but isnt a good enough finish for my liking
RE: 2.1GTd...new video ... - eskimogod - 14-11-2014
lapping valves is one of those tedious jobs thats is satisfying when there all done so understand when you say you enjoy it lol
how long before its back on the road..?
RE: 2.1GTd...new video ... - Piggy - 14-11-2014
Put head back together tomorrow.
Put head on car sunday I hope!
RE: 2.1GTd...new video ... - akuma406 - 15-11-2014
Good video and great jobs Piggy Sunday to see if you let all mounted.
RE: 2.1GTd...new video ... - Piggy - 15-11-2014

heads rebuilt:
[attachment=20106]
turbo oil return line replaced too and block cleaned up. Headbolt threads in the block cleaned out too.
[attachment=20107]
honing marks still clearly visible too
RE: 2.1GTd...new video ... - Toms306 - 15-11-2014
Shiny!
RE: 2.1GTd...new video ... - Piggy - 16-11-2014
I was so close!!
[attachment=20120]
Light was fading and I had 6bolts and oil fill to do to see if she would fire....
Then my best mate rang and said his clutch had just gone!
Doh! Be out early tomorrow before work...praying it dont rain like forecast says it will!
RE: 2.1GTd...new video ... - Piggy - 16-11-2014
finally got it edited...
RE: 2.1GTd...head is nearly there ... - zx_volcane - 16-11-2014
Dang you got that back together quick
RE: 2.1GTd...head is nearly there ... - Poodle - 17-11-2014
Well, the un-levelled dubstep at the end successfully scared the shit out of me and the missus, we're awake!
Looks good dude, will be so tidy when it's all complete.
RE: 2.1GTd...head is nearly there ... - Piggy - 17-11-2014
Yeah I did that on purpose tbh, I thought peeps maybe getting a bit bored by that point in the video!!
RE: 2.1GTd...head is nearly there ... - Grant - 17-11-2014
It does look very clean in that engine bay
I'm on my laptop via mobile broadband so haven't watched the videos but; did you check the valve seat seals with paraffin before reassembling it all?
That would be a killer.
RE: 2.1GTd...head is nearly there ... - Piggy - 17-11-2014
Nah I didnt grant.
No need imo
Those seats are perfect!
RE: 2.1GTd...head is nearly there ... - Grant - 17-11-2014
If you're confident then!
I think I would cry after all that work, to have compression issues rooting from valve seats.
Looking forwards to seeing this up and running
RE: 2.1GTd...head is nearly there ... - bashbarnard - 17-11-2014
I never test mine either no need. You can tell there ok. But thats my opinion.
Also though am looking forward to this running again. Do like the vids though.
RE: 2.1GTd...head is nearly there ... - Niall - 17-11-2014
Wouldn't say you can tell. I tested mine and had 2 with a slight leak even though the seats looked perfect. If you've got it apart, it would be silly not to really.
RE: 2.1GTd...head is nearly there ... - welshpug - 17-11-2014
a 6 is a bit different to an xud, thinner valve stems.
RE: 2.1GTd...head is nearly there ... - Ruan - 17-11-2014
Why would that affect valve seating?
RE: 2.1GTd...head is nearly there ... - welshpug - 17-11-2014
you heard the phrase "tapper" right?
RE: 2.1GTd...head is nearly there ... - Piggy - 17-11-2014
Stop bickering. Seats are bang on.
It runs!
It boosts!
It just...well...doesnt have the umph it did...like its lacking fuel somehow. Hmm
RE: 2.1GTd...head is nearly there ... - bashbarnard - 17-11-2014
Glad it runs. But not good on less umph
