A Newer, Better Engine For My Motorcycle Powered Car

0:00 a few weeks ago i blew up the engine in

0:01 a few weeks ago i blew up the engine in

0:01 a few weeks ago i blew up the engine in my motorcycle powered car and i was all

0:03 my motorcycle powered car and i was all

0:03 my motorcycle powered car and i was all sour grapes about it saying that i

0:05 sour grapes about it saying that i

0:05 sour grapes about it saying that i wanted a new engine anyway well that new

0:07 wanted a new engine anyway well that new

0:07 wanted a new engine anyway well that new engine has arrived it's the same model

0:09 engine has arrived it's the same model

0:09 engine has arrived it's the same model engine a honda cbr 1000rr only two

0:12 engine a honda cbr 1000rr only two

0:12 engine a honda cbr 1000rr only two generations later the mounts for the

0:14 generations later the mounts for the

0:14 generations later the mounts for the engine are already welded into place the

0:15 engine are already welded into place the

0:16 engine are already welded into place the hood already cut out for the intake what

0:17 hood already cut out for the intake what

0:17 hood already cut out for the intake what are the odds that honda went through two

0:19 are the odds that honda went through two

0:19 are the odds that honda went through two redesigns and didn't change any of that

0:21 redesigns and didn't change any of that

0:21 redesigns and didn't change any of that geometry

0:22 geometry

0:22 geometry probably not

0:23 probably not

0:23 probably not [Applause]

0:28 great i've been trying to get this car

0:31 great i've been trying to get this car

0:31 great i've been trying to get this car back on the road for a few months but

0:32 back on the road for a few months but

0:32 back on the road for a few months but i've been distracted with other projects

0:34 i've been distracted with other projects

0:34 i've been distracted with other projects lots of other projects probably too many

0:37 lots of other projects probably too many

0:37 lots of other projects probably too many projects but the petersen automotive

0:39 projects but the petersen automotive

0:39 projects but the petersen automotive museum had their annual japanese car

0:41 museum had their annual japanese car

0:41 museum had their annual japanese car cruise in and i wanted to have it done

0:42 cruise in and i wanted to have it done

0:42 cruise in and i wanted to have it done in time for that last time i showed up

0:44 in time for that last time i showed up

0:44 in time for that last time i showed up to one of their cruise-ins in a rusty

0:45 to one of their cruise-ins in a rusty

0:45 to one of their cruise-ins in a rusty old car they put me up in the nosebleeds

0:47 old car they put me up in the nosebleeds

0:47 old car they put me up in the nosebleeds away from the main car show but this

0:49 away from the main car show but this

0:49 away from the main car show but this time i felt confident that they would

0:51 time i felt confident that they would

0:51 time i felt confident that they would not do the same thing

0:52 not do the same thing

0:52 not do the same thing foreshadowing also it gave me a good

0:54 foreshadowing also it gave me a good

0:54 foreshadowing also it gave me a good deadline to work towards so i set myself

0:56 deadline to work towards so i set myself

0:56 deadline to work towards so i set myself to having the car ready in time the old

0:59 to having the car ready in time the old

0:59 to having the car ready in time the old engine met its demise when going around

1:01 engine met its demise when going around

1:01 engine met its demise when going around the long sweeping corners at chuckwalla

1:03 the long sweeping corners at chuckwalla

1:03 the long sweeping corners at chuckwalla raceway the engine is from a motorcycle

1:05 raceway the engine is from a motorcycle

1:05 raceway the engine is from a motorcycle and thus not designed for this kind of

1:06 and thus not designed for this kind of

1:06 and thus not designed for this kind of lateral acceleration but i did it anyway

1:08 lateral acceleration but i did it anyway

1:08 lateral acceleration but i did it anyway because i like to have fun

1:11 because i like to have fun

1:11 because i like to have fun so the engine exploded i bought a new

1:12 so the engine exploded i bought a new

1:12 so the engine exploded i bought a new one and i designed a dry sump oil system

1:14 one and i designed a dry sump oil system

1:14 one and i designed a dry sump oil system so that i wouldn't have this problem

1:16 so that i wouldn't have this problem

1:16 so that i wouldn't have this problem again the new engine comes with some

1:18 again the new engine comes with some

1:18 again the new engine comes with some advantages it has a little bit more

1:20 advantages it has a little bit more

1:20 advantages it has a little bit more power which is always nice it also has a

1:22 power which is always nice it also has a

1:22 power which is always nice it also has a cable clutch honda had cable clutches on

1:24 cable clutch honda had cable clutches on

1:24 cable clutch honda had cable clutches on their 1000s for years until 2007 when

1:27 their 1000s for years until 2007 when

1:27 their 1000s for years until 2007 when they switched to hydraulic clutches for

1:28 they switched to hydraulic clutches for

1:28 they switched to hydraulic clutches for two years before switching back to cable

1:31 two years before switching back to cable

1:31 two years before switching back to cable my last engine was one of those two

1:32 my last engine was one of those two

1:32 my last engine was one of those two years and the clutch was pretty terrible

1:34 years and the clutch was pretty terrible

1:34 years and the clutch was pretty terrible especially when trying to launch the car

1:36 especially when trying to launch the car

1:36 especially when trying to launch the car not that there's anything wrong with

1:37 not that there's anything wrong with

1:37 not that there's anything wrong with hydraulic clutches just the ones honda

1:39 hydraulic clutches just the ones honda

1:39 hydraulic clutches just the ones honda made in those years and it seems to only

1:41 made in those years and it seems to only

1:41 made in those years and it seems to only be a problem with heavy vehicles on hard

1:43 be a problem with heavy vehicles on hard

1:43 be a problem with heavy vehicles on hard launches so just me and fat guys anyway

1:46 launches so just me and fat guys anyway

1:46 launches so just me and fat guys anyway i'm pretty stoked about this new clutch

1:47 i'm pretty stoked about this new clutch

1:47 i'm pretty stoked about this new clutch and the engine in general

1:49 and the engine in general

1:49 and the engine in general [Music]

1:53 [Music]

1:53 [Music] the new engine is two generations

1:54 the new engine is two generations

1:54 the new engine is two generations removed from the old one but i've

1:56 removed from the old one but i've

1:56 removed from the old one but i've already made an intake exhaust and

1:57 already made an intake exhaust and

1:57 already made an intake exhaust and welded in motor mounts for the old

1:59 welded in motor mounts for the old

1:59 welded in motor mounts for the old engine and i'm not super jazzed about

2:00 engine and i'm not super jazzed about

2:00 engine and i'm not super jazzed about redoing all of that the first thing was

2:02 redoing all of that the first thing was

2:02 redoing all of that the first thing was to modify the exhaust the old headers

2:04 to modify the exhaust the old headers

2:04 to modify the exhaust the old headers had a different geometry at the ports

2:06 had a different geometry at the ports

2:06 had a different geometry at the ports they used this cast piece the new ones

2:08 they used this cast piece the new ones

2:08 they used this cast piece the new ones are just round this was pretty easy to

2:10 are just round this was pretty easy to

2:10 are just round this was pretty easy to deal with i just bought a set of headers

2:11 deal with i just bought a set of headers

2:11 deal with i just bought a set of headers for the new engine cut off all the ports

2:13 for the new engine cut off all the ports

2:13 for the new engine cut off all the ports and then welded my header to the new

2:15 and then welded my header to the new

2:15 and then welded my header to the new ports trying to keep everything in

2:16 ports trying to keep everything in

2:16 ports trying to keep everything in roughly the same location the spacing

2:18 roughly the same location the spacing

2:18 roughly the same location the spacing was the same so this lined up pretty

2:19 was the same so this lined up pretty

2:20 was the same so this lined up pretty well once i got the engine in the car i

2:21 well once i got the engine in the car i

2:21 well once i got the engine in the car i did have a bit of a gap between the

2:23 did have a bit of a gap between the

2:23 did have a bit of a gap between the header outlet and the exhaust but i

2:25 header outlet and the exhaust but i

2:25 header outlet and the exhaust but i cinched that up with a ratchet strap and

2:26 cinched that up with a ratchet strap and

2:26 cinched that up with a ratchet strap and bolted it together by the way if you're

2:28 bolted it together by the way if you're

2:28 bolted it together by the way if you're making exhaust stuff v-band clamps are

2:30 making exhaust stuff v-band clamps are

2:30 making exhaust stuff v-band clamps are your friend but we're getting ahead of

2:32 your friend but we're getting ahead of

2:32 your friend but we're getting ahead of ourselves we still have to put the

2:33 ourselves we still have to put the

2:33 ourselves we still have to put the engine in looking at the two engines

2:35 engine in looking at the two engines

2:35 engine in looking at the two engines side by side it appears that the mounts

2:37 side by side it appears that the mounts

2:37 side by side it appears that the mounts are in the same location i might be able

2:39 are in the same location i might be able

2:39 are in the same location i might be able to just drop the engine in and bolt it

2:40 to just drop the engine in and bolt it

2:40 to just drop the engine in and bolt it up the new engine is missing two top

2:42 up the new engine is missing two top

2:42 up the new engine is missing two top mounts but i'm not using those mounts

2:44 mounts but i'm not using those mounts

2:44 mounts but i'm not using those mounts anyway the only difference seems to be

2:46 anyway the only difference seems to be

2:46 anyway the only difference seems to be that the front mounts are a little bit

2:47 that the front mounts are a little bit

2:47 that the front mounts are a little bit wider maybe 3 8 of an inch or about 10

2:49 wider maybe 3 8 of an inch or about 10

2:49 wider maybe 3 8 of an inch or about 10 millimeters i modified the existing

2:51 millimeters i modified the existing

2:51 millimeters i modified the existing mounts by just sticking a bottle jack in

2:53 mounts by just sticking a bottle jack in

2:53 mounts by just sticking a bottle jack in there and pushing them apart it gets

2:55 there and pushing them apart it gets

2:55 there and pushing them apart it gets real close to the body here but uh it's

2:57 real close to the body here but uh it's

2:57 real close to the body here but uh it's probably fine

3:02 so seems like we're good let's drop the

3:04 so seems like we're good let's drop the

3:04 so seems like we're good let's drop the engine in the car for this i went to

3:06 engine in the car for this i went to

3:06 engine in the car for this i went to harbor freight to get one of their

3:07 harbor freight to get one of their

3:07 harbor freight to get one of their engine hoists i looked at it for about

3:09 engine hoists i looked at it for about

3:09 engine hoists i looked at it for about five minutes thinking about how i don't

3:11 five minutes thinking about how i don't

3:11 five minutes thinking about how i don't have room to store it i don't really

3:12 have room to store it i don't really

3:12 have room to store it i don't really need it for anything else so i just

3:13 need it for anything else so i just

3:13 need it for anything else so i just hooked up a chain hoist to the rafters

3:15 hooked up a chain hoist to the rafters

3:15 hooked up a chain hoist to the rafters in my garage i reinforced this with a

3:17 in my garage i reinforced this with a

3:17 in my garage i reinforced this with a couple of two by fours and hung off of

3:19 couple of two by fours and hung off of

3:19 couple of two by fours and hung off of it myself to test it i also did this to

3:21 it myself to test it i also did this to

3:21 it myself to test it i also did this to get the old engine out so it seems

3:23 get the old engine out so it seems

3:23 get the old engine out so it seems sketchy but it does work and if you

3:25 sketchy but it does work and if you

3:25 sketchy but it does work and if you watch this channel you know that's

3:26 watch this channel you know that's

3:26 watch this channel you know that's pretty much how i live my life so it's

3:27 pretty much how i live my life so it's

3:28 pretty much how i live my life so it's on brand with the engine lowered into

3:30 on brand with the engine lowered into

3:30 on brand with the engine lowered into the car the front mounts lined up great

3:32 the car the front mounts lined up great

3:32 the car the front mounts lined up great and everything seemed to clear except

3:34 and everything seemed to clear except

3:34 and everything seemed to clear except the dry sump pump which was a little

3:35 the dry sump pump which was a little

3:35 the dry sump pump which was a little close to the frame but not too close as

3:37 close to the frame but not too close as

3:37 close to the frame but not too close as i started to drop the rear mounts into

3:39 i started to drop the rear mounts into

3:39 i started to drop the rear mounts into place i noticed it the problem the rear

3:42 place i noticed it the problem the rear

3:42 place i noticed it the problem the rear mounts while in roughly the right place

3:44 mounts while in roughly the right place

3:44 mounts while in roughly the right place are shifted to one side the front

3:46 are shifted to one side the front

3:46 are shifted to one side the front clashes with my front lower mount a lot

3:48 clashes with my front lower mount a lot

3:48 clashes with my front lower mount a lot like more than i can deal with by just

3:50 like more than i can deal with by just

3:50 like more than i can deal with by just shaving some metal off so i have to cut

3:52 shaving some metal off so i have to cut

3:52 shaving some metal off so i have to cut off this whole mount and move it forward

3:53 off this whole mount and move it forward

3:53 off this whole mount and move it forward in car about an inch this was a total

3:56 in car about an inch this was a total

3:56 in car about an inch this was a total pain in the ass i pulled the engine out

3:58 pain in the ass i pulled the engine out

3:58 pain in the ass i pulled the engine out to cut the old mount off but i needed

3:59 to cut the old mount off but i needed

3:59 to cut the old mount off but i needed the engine in place to weld the mount

4:01 the engine in place to weld the mount

4:01 the engine in place to weld the mount back up in the right place this was not

4:03 back up in the right place this was not

4:03 back up in the right place this was not super easy to access i did manage to get

4:05 super easy to access i did manage to get

4:05 super easy to access i did manage to get it welded up i pulled the engine back

4:07 it welded up i pulled the engine back

4:07 it welded up i pulled the engine back out to finish welding it and i know this

4:09 out to finish welding it and i know this

4:09 out to finish welding it and i know this looks like actual hot garbage but i'm

4:10 looks like actual hot garbage but i'm

4:10 looks like actual hot garbage but i'm fairly sure it will hold and then i did

4:13 fairly sure it will hold and then i did

4:13 fairly sure it will hold and then i did a real dumb thing i had been clamping

4:15 a real dumb thing i had been clamping

4:15 a real dumb thing i had been clamping the ground directly to the mount so the

4:17 the ground directly to the mount so the

4:17 the ground directly to the mount so the electrical path was short well i took

4:19 electrical path was short well i took

4:19 electrical path was short well i took the clamp off to clean up the metal and

4:20 the clamp off to clean up the metal and

4:20 the clamp off to clean up the metal and i just sort of set it to the side on

4:22 i just sort of set it to the side on

4:22 i just sort of set it to the side on some brake lines and then i started

4:23 some brake lines and then i started

4:23 some brake lines and then i started welding again without the clamp being

4:25 welding again without the clamp being

4:25 welding again without the clamp being hooked back up all of the welding

4:27 hooked back up all of the welding

4:27 hooked back up all of the welding current went through the rear braided

4:29 current went through the rear braided

4:29 current went through the rear braided brake line and this fuel line i'm not a

4:31 brake line and this fuel line i'm not a

4:31 brake line and this fuel line i'm not a smart man so i had to replace those two

4:34 smart man so i had to replace those two

4:34 smart man so i had to replace those two lines and bleed the brakes although i

4:36 lines and bleed the brakes although i

4:36 lines and bleed the brakes although i had to bleed the brakes anyway so it

4:37 had to bleed the brakes anyway so it

4:37 had to bleed the brakes anyway so it wasn't a huge deal and i did get the

4:39 wasn't a huge deal and i did get the

4:39 wasn't a huge deal and i did get the welding finished so the engine was in

4:46 i didn't really want to design a new

4:47 i didn't really want to design a new

4:48 i didn't really want to design a new intake so i was pretty stoked to find

4:49 intake so i was pretty stoked to find

4:49 intake so i was pretty stoked to find out that the old intake assembly with

4:51 out that the old intake assembly with

4:51 out that the old intake assembly with the throttle bodies and fuel injectors

4:53 the throttle bodies and fuel injectors

4:53 the throttle bodies and fuel injectors fit right in later we will put the hood

4:55 fit right in later we will put the hood

4:55 fit right in later we will put the hood on and see if that intake still lines up

4:56 on and see if that intake still lines up

4:56 on and see if that intake still lines up with the giant hole i already cut out of

4:58 with the giant hole i already cut out of

4:58 with the giant hole i already cut out of the hood

4:59 the hood

4:59 the hood boy i hope so the fuel injection system

5:02 boy i hope so the fuel injection system

5:02 boy i hope so the fuel injection system didn't change i retained all of the old

5:04 didn't change i retained all of the old

5:04 didn't change i retained all of the old sensors except for one the crankshaft

5:05 sensors except for one the crankshaft

5:06 sensors except for one the crankshaft sensor which is the same type of sensor

5:07 sensor which is the same type of sensor

5:07 sensor which is the same type of sensor with the same trigger wheel spacing the

5:09 with the same trigger wheel spacing the

5:09 with the same trigger wheel spacing the camshaft sensor of the new engine is

5:11 camshaft sensor of the new engine is

5:11 camshaft sensor of the new engine is different it's in a different location

5:13 different it's in a different location

5:13 different it's in a different location and it's a different type of sensor it

5:15 and it's a different type of sensor it

5:15 and it's a different type of sensor it has three wires and my system is

5:16 has three wires and my system is

5:16 has three wires and my system is currently set up for a two wire sensor i

5:19 currently set up for a two wire sensor i

5:19 currently set up for a two wire sensor i could have run another wire to this and

5:20 could have run another wire to this and

5:20 could have run another wire to this and reprogram the ecu but i didn't have a

5:22 reprogram the ecu but i didn't have a

5:22 reprogram the ecu but i didn't have a connector for the new sensor anyway so i

5:24 connector for the new sensor anyway so i

5:24 connector for the new sensor anyway so i use the old sensor the problem is that

5:26 use the old sensor the problem is that

5:26 use the old sensor the problem is that the old sensor is bigger than the new

5:28 the old sensor is bigger than the new

5:28 the old sensor is bigger than the new one it has a larger diameter and it's

5:29 one it has a larger diameter and it's

5:29 one it has a larger diameter and it's longer the longer part was an easy fix i

5:32 longer the longer part was an easy fix i

5:32 longer the longer part was an easy fix i just laid down a spacer the bigger part

5:34 just laid down a spacer the bigger part

5:34 just laid down a spacer the bigger part was a little more difficult but i do own

5:36 was a little more difficult but i do own

5:36 was a little more difficult but i do own a cnc machine so not too difficult

5:39 a cnc machine so not too difficult

5:39 a cnc machine so not too difficult as i said before the clutch is no longer

5:40 as i said before the clutch is no longer

5:40 as i said before the clutch is no longer hydraulic which means i need to replace

5:42 hydraulic which means i need to replace

5:42 hydraulic which means i need to replace my clutch lever this is a bummer because

5:44 my clutch lever this is a bummer because

5:44 my clutch lever this is a bummer because i really like this thing but it's got to

5:46 i really like this thing but it's got to

5:46 i really like this thing but it's got to go the clutch lever was horizontal but

5:48 go the clutch lever was horizontal but

5:48 go the clutch lever was horizontal but i'm going to make the new one vertical

5:50 i'm going to make the new one vertical

5:50 i'm going to make the new one vertical mostly because i have to route the

5:51 mostly because i have to route the

5:51 mostly because i have to route the clutch cable down into the opening so i

5:53 clutch cable down into the opening so i

5:53 clutch cable down into the opening so i chopped off the old mount and welded in

5:55 chopped off the old mount and welded in

5:55 chopped off the old mount and welded in a new vertical tube then i installed the

5:57 a new vertical tube then i installed the

5:57 a new vertical tube then i installed the handle and adjusted it to a height that

5:59 handle and adjusted it to a height that

5:59 handle and adjusted it to a height that felt comfortable then i welded on a

6:01 felt comfortable then i welded on a

6:01 felt comfortable then i welded on a threaded boss so i could get my hurst

6:03 threaded boss so i could get my hurst

6:03 threaded boss so i could get my hurst pistol grip shifter back on there for

6:05 pistol grip shifter back on there for

6:05 pistol grip shifter back on there for the cable i just bought a diy clutch

6:07 the cable i just bought a diy clutch

6:07 the cable i just bought a diy clutch cable kit and ran it from the lever to

6:09 cable kit and ran it from the lever to

6:09 cable kit and ran it from the lever to the engine i cut it to length and

6:11 the engine i cut it to length and

6:11 the engine i cut it to length and soldered on a fitting at the engine i

6:13 soldered on a fitting at the engine i

6:13 soldered on a fitting at the engine i did not have the correct adjuster nut

6:14 did not have the correct adjuster nut

6:14 did not have the correct adjuster nut for the lever side nor did i feel like

6:16 for the lever side nor did i feel like

6:16 for the lever side nor did i feel like waiting for one to show up in the mail

6:17 waiting for one to show up in the mail

6:17 waiting for one to show up in the mail so i just drilled out a socket head bolt

6:19 so i just drilled out a socket head bolt

6:19 so i just drilled out a socket head bolt i had that was the right size and i ran

6:21 i had that was the right size and i ran

6:21 i had that was the right size and i ran the cable through it i installed the dry

6:23 the cable through it i installed the dry

6:23 the cable through it i installed the dry sump tank and ran the lines

6:25 sump tank and ran the lines

6:25 sump tank and ran the lines unfortunately i couldn't get the routing

6:26 unfortunately i couldn't get the routing

6:26 unfortunately i couldn't get the routing i wanted in the lower line so i had to

6:28 i wanted in the lower line so i had to

6:28 i wanted in the lower line so i had to loop it up and around like this it's not

6:30 loop it up and around like this it's not

6:30 loop it up and around like this it's not great but i may go back later and add a

6:32 great but i may go back later and add a

6:32 great but i may go back later and add a 180 to get some cleaner routing but it

6:34 180 to get some cleaner routing but it

6:34 180 to get some cleaner routing but it works for now i filled up the oil tank

6:36 works for now i filled up the oil tank

6:36 works for now i filled up the oil tank with oil i wasn't really sure the oil

6:38 with oil i wasn't really sure the oil

6:38 with oil i wasn't really sure the oil would make it over this loop so i

6:39 would make it over this loop so i

6:39 would make it over this loop so i actually pressurized the oil tank to

6:41 actually pressurized the oil tank to

6:41 actually pressurized the oil tank to about 10 psi while i cranked the engine

6:43 about 10 psi while i cranked the engine

6:43 about 10 psi while i cranked the engine hoping that would push any oil into the

6:45 hoping that would push any oil into the

6:45 hoping that would push any oil into the oil pump i double checked all my wiring

6:47 oil pump i double checked all my wiring

6:47 oil pump i double checked all my wiring hooked up my computer and cranked the

6:48 hooked up my computer and cranked the

6:48 hooked up my computer and cranked the engine it didn't start i checked the

6:50 engine it didn't start i checked the

6:50 engine it didn't start i checked the compression good on all cylinders i

6:52 compression good on all cylinders i

6:52 compression good on all cylinders i checked the spark good there still no

6:54 checked the spark good there still no

6:54 checked the spark good there still no start fuel pressure looked good so i

6:56 start fuel pressure looked good so i

6:56 start fuel pressure looked good so i cranked it again and then it just

6:58 cranked it again and then it just

6:58 cranked it again and then it just started

7:01 yay

7:04 and now we get to see if those circles

7:05 and now we get to see if those circles

7:05 and now we get to see if those circles and ovals i made in the oil tank do

7:07 and ovals i made in the oil tank do

7:07 and ovals i made in the oil tank do their job ah yes

7:09 their job ah yes

7:09 their job ah yes very nice

7:11 very nice

7:11 very nice this did mean there was oil pumping but

7:13 this did mean there was oil pumping but

7:13 this did mean there was oil pumping but i wasn't showing any oil pressure i had

7:15 i wasn't showing any oil pressure i had

7:15 i wasn't showing any oil pressure i had taken out the dummy oil pressure sensor

7:17 taken out the dummy oil pressure sensor

7:17 taken out the dummy oil pressure sensor and installed a proper sensor that will

7:19 and installed a proper sensor that will

7:19 and installed a proper sensor that will tell me actual oil pressure not just a

7:21 tell me actual oil pressure not just a

7:21 tell me actual oil pressure not just a light that comes on after the engine is

7:22 light that comes on after the engine is

7:22 light that comes on after the engine is already toast i already had this sensor

7:24 already toast i already had this sensor

7:24 already toast i already had this sensor on the car i was using it as a clutch

7:26 on the car i was using it as a clutch

7:26 on the car i was using it as a clutch pressure sensor so i could use a

7:27 pressure sensor so i could use a

7:27 pressure sensor so i could use a two-stage rev limiter but i'm not using

7:29 two-stage rev limiter but i'm not using

7:29 two-stage rev limiter but i'm not using the hydraulic clutch so i moved it to

7:31 the hydraulic clutch so i moved it to

7:31 the hydraulic clutch so i moved it to the engine it wasn't reading any oil

7:33 the engine it wasn't reading any oil

7:33 the engine it wasn't reading any oil pressure at first which was worrying but

7:34 pressure at first which was worrying but

7:34 pressure at first which was worrying but then i remembered i'd put a switch in to

7:36 then i remembered i'd put a switch in to

7:36 then i remembered i'd put a switch in to turn off the secondary rev limiter the

7:38 turn off the secondary rev limiter the

7:38 turn off the secondary rev limiter the switch just ignored the sensor and it

7:40 switch just ignored the sensor and it

7:40 switch just ignored the sensor and it was off so that was an easy fix

7:45 engine runs good oil pressure we are

7:47 engine runs good oil pressure we are

7:47 engine runs good oil pressure we are ready to drive

7:48 ready to drive

7:48 ready to drive almost we still need a drive shaft a

7:50 almost we still need a drive shaft a

7:50 almost we still need a drive shaft a coolant system an alternator a shifter

7:52 coolant system an alternator a shifter

7:52 coolant system an alternator a shifter still got to bleed the brakes but we're

7:53 still got to bleed the brakes but we're

7:54 still got to bleed the brakes but we're almost there

7:59 the new engine had a different plug for

8:00 the new engine had a different plug for

8:00 the new engine had a different plug for the voltage regulator there are three

8:02 the voltage regulator there are three

8:02 the voltage regulator there are three yellow wires i don't know if they needed

8:04 yellow wires i don't know if they needed

8:04 yellow wires i don't know if they needed to be in a specific order so i just cut

8:05 to be in a specific order so i just cut

8:06 to be in a specific order so i just cut off the old plug and crimped on the new

8:07 off the old plug and crimped on the new

8:07 off the old plug and crimped on the new ones i left the left wire on the left

8:13 seems to work fine another change to the

8:13 seems to work fine another change to the engine is the location of the sprocket

8:15 engine is the location of the sprocket

8:15 engine is the location of the sprocket actually the sprocket itself might be in

8:17 actually the sprocket itself might be in

8:17 actually the sprocket itself might be in the same spot but the side cover on the

8:18 the same spot but the side cover on the

8:18 the same spot but the side cover on the engine has changed so my adapter doesn't

8:20 engine has changed so my adapter doesn't

8:20 engine has changed so my adapter doesn't work anymore this is fine however

8:22 work anymore this is fine however

8:22 work anymore this is fine however because with the new side cover design

8:24 because with the new side cover design

8:24 because with the new side cover design and with the water pump relocated i can

8:31 i first put a drive shaft on this thing

8:32 i first put a drive shaft on this thing i bought a bmw drive shaft because i was

8:34 i bought a bmw drive shaft because i was

8:34 i bought a bmw drive shaft because i was using a bmw diff and i just made an

8:36 using a bmw diff and i just made an

8:36 using a bmw diff and i just made an adapter for that i'm still using that

8:38 adapter for that i'm still using that

8:38 adapter for that i'm still using that diff but i have a reverse gear box in

8:40 diff but i have a reverse gear box in

8:43 the middle that uses a dana 1210u joint

8:43 the middle that uses a dana 1210u joint when i added reverse i just added the

8:44 when i added reverse i just added the

8:44 when i added reverse i just added the 1210 to the existing drive shaft since i

8:47 1210 to the existing drive shaft since i

8:47 1210 to the existing drive shaft since i have to lengthen the drive shaft anyway

8:48 have to lengthen the drive shaft anyway

8:48 have to lengthen the drive shaft anyway i'm going to add the 1210 to the other

8:50 i'm going to add the 1210 to the other

8:50 i'm going to add the 1210 to the other side as well it's smaller and packages

8:52 side as well it's smaller and packages

8:52 side as well it's smaller and packages better and i'll probably need it to

8:53 better and i'll probably need it to

8:53 better and i'll probably need it to clear the side cover i also added a slip

8:56 clear the side cover i also added a slip

8:56 clear the side cover i also added a slip joint i'm not sure i need this since

8:57 joint i'm not sure i need this since

8:57 joint i'm not sure i need this since neither the engine nor the reversing

8:59 neither the engine nor the reversing

8:59 neither the engine nor the reversing gearbox are supposed to move but they

9:00 gearbox are supposed to move but they

9:00 gearbox are supposed to move but they probably do move and this means that i

9:02 probably do move and this means that i

9:02 probably do move and this means that i don't have to get an exact right length

9:03 don't have to get an exact right length

9:03 don't have to get an exact right length for the drive shaft which is good

9:05 for the drive shaft which is good

9:10 laser cut me out a flange for the

9:10 laser cut me out a flange for the u-joint then i welded on bolts and a

9:12 u-joint then i welded on bolts and a

9:12 u-joint then i welded on bolts and a sprocket to the flange i lathed out a

9:17 landing i'm sorry i turned a landing down on the lathe for the u-joint but i

9:19 down on the lathe for the u-joint but i

9:19 down on the lathe for the u-joint but i also added so much weld that i had to go

9:21 also added so much weld that i had to go

9:21 also added so much weld that i had to go back and cut it again because it shrunk

9:22 back and cut it again because it shrunk

9:22 back and cut it again because it shrunk just enough not to fit this wouldn't

9:57 going to take out the thermostat and run

9:57 going to take out the thermostat and run it in a big loop i just pieced together

9:59 it in a big loop i just pieced together

10:04 fortunately not that good so i will want to change it at some point with the oil

10:06 to change it at some point with the oil

10:06 to change it at some point with the oil tank i'm running almost twice as much

10:08 tank i'm running almost twice as much

10:08 tank i'm running almost twice as much oil as the engine was originally

10:10 oil as the engine was originally

10:10 oil as the engine was originally designed for and with the tank being

10:11 designed for and with the tank being

10:11 designed for and with the tank being outside of the engine the oil might not

10:13 outside of the engine the oil might not need to be cooled with the oil cooler

10:15 need to be cooled with the oil cooler

10:15 need to be cooled with the oil cooler but i'm going to plumb it in anyway if

10:17 but i'm going to plumb it in anyway if

10:17 but i'm going to plumb it in anyway if anything it might need the coolant to

10:19 anything it might need the coolant to

10:19 anything it might need the coolant to get the oil up to temperature but that

10:20 get the oil up to temperature but that

10:20 get the oil up to temperature but that comes later so you remember how i said

10:22 comes later so you remember how i said

10:22 comes later so you remember how i said the new engine removed two of the upper

10:24 the new engine removed two of the upper

10:24 the new engine removed two of the upper mounts but it didn't matter because i

10:25 mounts but it didn't matter because i

10:25 mounts but it didn't matter because i wasn't using them well that's not

10:27 wasn't using them well that's not

10:27 wasn't using them well that's not entirely true i was using one of them

10:29 entirely true i was using one of them

10:53 the new engine doesn't have but also it

10:53 the new engine doesn't have but also it shifts backwards the old engine was left

10:56 shifts backwards the old engine was left

10:56 shifts backwards the old engine was left for down and right for up the new one is

10:58 for down and right for up the new one is

11:00 left for up and right for down at some point honda flipped around their shifter

11:02 point honda flipped around their shifter

11:02 point honda flipped around their shifter linkage this means i need to flip the

11:03 linkage this means i need to flip the

11:03 linkage this means i need to flip the rotating bell crank around the other way

11:05 rotating bell crank around the other way

11:06 rotating bell crank around the other way i also had to make a mount for it i had

11:07 i also had to make a mount for it i had

11:07 i also had to make a mount for it i had zen cuts in laser out this piece of

11:09 zen cuts in laser out this piece of

11:09 zen cuts in laser out this piece of stainless that bolts to three of the

11:10 stainless that bolts to three of the

11:10 stainless that bolts to three of the engine bolts two on the starter and one

11:12 engine bolts two on the starter and one

11:12 engine bolts two on the starter and one of the case bolts the case bolt is kind

11:15 of the case bolts the case bolt is kind

11:15 of the case bolts the case bolt is kind of far away so i welded a threaded rod

11:17 of far away so i welded a threaded rod

11:17 of far away so i welded a threaded rod onto the end of that bolt then i screwed

11:18 onto the end of that bolt then i screwed

11:18 onto the end of that bolt then i screwed in a spacer and added a bell crank on

11:20 in a spacer and added a bell crank on

11:20 in a spacer and added a bell crank on the top of that and two bearings around

11:22 the top of that and two bearings around

11:22 the top of that and two bearings around a bolt so yes i'm using a bolt as a

11:24 a bolt so yes i'm using a bolt as a

11:24 a bolt so yes i'm using a bolt as a bearing surface it's kind of bad

11:25 bearing surface it's kind of bad

11:26 bearing surface it's kind of bad practice but it's fine i added a button

11:28 practice but it's fine i added a button

11:28 practice but it's fine i added a button head screw on the side to keep it all

11:29 head screw on the side to keep it all

11:29 head screw on the side to keep it all together with the new mount everything

11:31 together with the new mount everything is shifted to the right in car so i had

11:33 is shifted to the right in car so i had

11:33 is shifted to the right in car so i had to bend the rod going from the shifter

11:35 to bend the rod going from the shifter

11:35 to bend the rod going from the shifter to the bell crank to get it to fit about

11:37 to the bell crank to get it to fit about

11:53 system was thrown together i still don't have a speedometer because honda changed

11:55 have a speedometer because honda changed

11:55 have a speedometer because honda changed the plug on me and i don't feel like

11:56 the plug on me and i don't feel like

11:56 the plug on me and i don't feel like buying a whole wiring harness so i'll

11:58 buying a whole wiring harness so i'll

11:58 buying a whole wiring harness so i'll have to figure that out later this is

11:59 have to figure that out later this is

11:59 have to figure that out later this is the speedometer correction that fixes

12:01 the speedometer correction that fixes

12:01 the speedometer correction that fixes for my modified gearing okay let's take

12:11 there to bleed out i took it out to the

12:11 there to bleed out i took it out to the main road to get the engine spinning and

12:13 main road to get the engine spinning and

12:13 main road to get the engine spinning and it won't go past 7000 rpm i thought this

12:15 it won't go past 7000 rpm i thought this

12:15 it won't go past 7000 rpm i thought this might have been that secondary rev

12:17 might have been that secondary rev

12:17 might have been that secondary rev limiter setting but that wasn't it it

12:18 limiter setting but that wasn't it it

12:18 limiter setting but that wasn't it it also wasn't acting like a rev limiter it

12:20 also wasn't acting like a rev limiter it

12:20 also wasn't acting like a rev limiter it just cuts off for a second and then

12:22 just cuts off for a second and then backfires like a gunshot the only sensor

12:24 backfires like a gunshot the only sensor

12:24 backfires like a gunshot the only sensor change was that crankshaft sensor i did

12:26 change was that crankshaft sensor i did

12:26 change was that crankshaft sensor i did previously have to add a resistor in

12:28 previously have to add a resistor in

12:28 previously have to add a resistor in parallel to that sensor to bring the

12:29 parallel to that sensor to bring the

12:29 parallel to that sensor to bring the voltage down at high rpm so i might have

12:32 voltage down at high rpm so i might have

12:32 voltage down at high rpm so i might have to just upsize that resistor it's also

12:34 to just upsize that resistor it's also

12:34 to just upsize that resistor it's also possible that the camshaft sensor is

12:36 possible that the camshaft sensor is

12:36 possible that the camshaft sensor is closer to its trigger wheel now so i

12:38 closer to its trigger wheel now so i

12:38 closer to its trigger wheel now so i might have to add a resistor there

12:39 might have to add a resistor there

12:39 might have to add a resistor there anyway it doesn't really matter for our

12:54 really like this springy feeling one of my favorite things about this car is the

12:55 my favorite things about this car is the

12:55 my favorite things about this car is the direct shifting you can feel the cogs

12:57 direct shifting you can feel the cogs

12:57 direct shifting you can feel the cogs engaging in the transmission when you

12:59 engaging in the transmission when you

12:59 engaging in the transmission when you shift and i don't want that to go away

13:01 shift and i don't want that to go away

13:01 shift and i don't want that to go away so i'll need to redesign the push rod
